Got to get Kane off, maybe one of the holding players as well. Put Sterling as false 9 and bring Grealish on. Think England played relatively well but they need to make more chances.

Don’t think I’ve seen anyone who’s confident. There’s a decent chance we could win though, it won’t be glorious but we’ve got a chance of grinding it out.

Representing Camden Town.

Incredible day of football. Actually weirdly pleased for Xhaka, he takes so much stick. If he could sort his head out he’s a good player.

Emma Hayes is by far the best co-commentator on TV.

He’s a nice player but I’d never rely on him in a tough spot.

Unbelievably bad from Wales.

Pretty hard when he gives away a foul every time the ball comes near him. Think he’s basically given up challenging for it.

Surprised he knows who he is.

Ah right, I didn't know the store was rebranding? What's it rebranding to again?

Is it normal that a PL club wouldn't have a kit for the new season yet? Or are we keeping the same one for one more year?

England could get to the final if they beat Germany, the rest of draw is fairly kind.

Think so, yeah. He’s always been into the California culture and alternative stuff IIRC. Used to drive a VW Beetle to training apparently.

Pretty sure he’s lived in America for ages.

Penalties like that are such a problem for a low-scoring sport like football. Absolutely ruins it when you give a free goal for something that’s wrong.

If the transfer budget is that bad, most managers would be better to steer clear.

Think that’s the theory behind our approach in general. We won’t outplay people, so we better out grind them.

Yeah, I mean it’s difficult to suddenly switch on playing well at the critical time. You need some kind of momentum. Seems to be the life of England. Meaningless games which are too easy to challenge them, followed by defeat by a great team that are too good to beat.

Rice was almost playing as a third CB, incredibly deep.

Guess aiming for a great performance just isn’t in the equation. We’re aiming to manage at the minimum level to get through. Very likely we’ll lose in the next round.

Saka‘s pretty impressive, mega mature for 19. Just takes every step up without any trouble. I’d like to see a more involved or mobile striker and we’d look very good.

I don’t think it was really about ‘breaking them down’ exactly. We didn’t even do the pre-work you need to be in a position to break someone down. Positive is that I assume we got to a stage where we decided that a point would be OK and we stuck on that.

But what’s the actual rule about when VAR should be used?

Nobody expected it to be easy for England though, surely.

James was pants as well.
