They're fouling us in the box.

It's too warm.

They fall over too easily.

Key points from bbc commentary.

Ha noted that as well. At least sterling has gone he is absolute garbage in an england shirt
In fairness, the ref + VAR have ridden them. We'd be whinging too.

Could have sworn he was Irish.

Is it a bit too soon to say England won't be winning this World cup?

England are very much poor quality as usual, some decent players in that team and a few donkeys! Never understood what how some good players for their clubs go to shite with an England Jersey team on them!!

A lot of poor to average managers unable to get the best out of their players. Who seriously thinks Gareth Southgate is good enough for this level of management?

How'd that dick end up giving away that corner?
They have been playing that way all night. Much prefer defenders putting the laces through it!

Ah Fergie time

I don't think the 92nd minute has ever been described as Fergie time before.  ;D

You could see the confidence draining from some of the more decent players as the game went on. Half decent players but badly organised.

Loftus Cheek made a big difference when he came on. Maguire was their best player imo. Great finish from Harry.

England need rid of Young and Lindgard to progress.

There is genuinely no point in playing 3 Centre halves unless your wing backs provide proper width. The amount of times tonight big Maguire cane steaming out of defence with the ball, slips it to Young, who steps and goes backwards. Offers nothing. Lingard is a passenger. He doesn't have the creative impact required to be that unwilling to get involved.

Sterling not in Rashford's league. Not even close.
