Mad Dog seal of approval, must be good.

Jak Alnwick against Spurs was when it became obvious to me just how shit he is/was. Nicky But at the Cardiff Semi-Final was the most spineless I've seen. Can't remember who against but James Perch had an absolute 'mare at right back soon after he'd joined, was laughably bad.

France just scored a couple of long range goals to go 2-0 up against USA. USA have huffed and puffed but the whole game has felt a bit flat.

Players warmed up for longer than they had to play for the restart

Three adopted Geordies in the winning squad at least.

Aye, gutted for him. Understandable but ruthless from Southgate.

Not really feeling it as much this time, although to be honest I was surprised how much I ended up caring about the previous finals. I think the other two Euros finals being at Wembley helped.

Why is Kane actively avoiding the box when we get out wide.

Didn't see much of Mainoo before the Euros, but I can see the hype might actually be justified.

Why is a grown man, closer to retirement than school age, holding up a cardboard sign asking for Kane's shirt? FFS he's old enough to be Kane's dad

Foden man, again. Lots of space down the wing next to Bellingham there, still he refuses to run into it.

Foden on the right wing.... well at least he is on a wing for a change I suppose

Should have been 2

Just enough to give Southgate the idea that he should persist with this left hand side for even longer...

Waiting for VAR...

At least Saka seems to know where the wing is. Foden spending the afternoon just wandering into the middle to make sure he is marked.

Deserved.

Jesus, Walker giving it away again. Full backs on a two-man mission to throw this away.

3 yellows in 13 mins

Trippier

My only question is, I don't get how they have another £35 million to spend under PSR rules, thought they'd be cutting it fine too.

Feel like we're in between a rock and a hard place with our, very limited, academy graduates. We don't really have enough for European squad rules but we may need to sell them for PSR.

Winning the group with a GD of +1

Harry Kane thinks we played well

Finally someone turns, carries the ball and plays a great ball forward.... just a shame he was brought on with 3 minutes to go.
