Guess he was trying to make a point by forcing them to play the whole game. Or something.

Still, grabbed the goal, even if not deserved. 

I mean, they’ve had one shot on target, which we gave to them. The game should have been over before they scored tbh.

Of course, I was trying to guess why he didn’t make subs even though we had become really bad.

Got away with it tbh. We were good in the first half but offered nowt in the second and looked nervous occasionally. 

Bit depressing that we've got such such an incredible pool of attacking talent to choose from yet we can't force a clear-cut chance from open play against a team like Poland. Suppose they came to do nowt but defend.

Still have the underbelly of the old shaky, vulnerable England who lack a bit of confidence at times.  

Breaking down those stubborn teams is really hard TBF, needs a bit more in midfield to open up spaces maybe.

Shame to see the first goal as well, which was an incredibly soft penalty.

We were terribly ponderous going forward in the second half against a desperately mediocre team. You’d want us to be able to maintain pressure on a team like that, probing for opportunities - someone like Grealish might have made a difference and taken the game by the scruff.
 

On the other side of the coin, that centreback pairing just makes me so nervous. I did think that Walker looked pretty classy at RB. It’s all so very mundane, although when you look at other results it’s hard to get too worked up.

Southgate talking about fatigue when he decided to play all of Stones, Chilwell, Phillips, Mount and Sterling against San Marino. Really could have put any combination of players out against that lot and won very comfortably. Can't help but worry about how utterly gassed so many players are going to be when the Euros come around. Certainly by the time they're preparing for the new season. I know this season is an anomaly but surely something's got to give eventually.

You can't man mark a postman tbf.  Fuckers are erratic could arrive anywhere at anytime.
