I really don’t agree with this idea that it’s good we are avoiding the better teams. Even if you win a tournament, can you really say you deserved it. I am not so sure.

Look at that average position map. Foden and Bellingham joined at the hip. Just getting in each others way.

Becoming clear they both can't play in the same team if Foden refuses to stay wide.

He'll do what he always does - minimum changes, same formation...

England will win 1-0 tonight - Gareth will claim the moral high ground with 7 points/undefeated in the group stages.... But in reality, the fans are seeing nothing to get them excited or interested for the next stage of the tournament.

Gallagher will come in for TAA and it will all look very similar tonight.

Apart from the scoreline I wasn't far wrong...

Woeful performance once again - despite any claims of 2 clean sheets/topping the group as a positive sign.

It's looking all too familiar to previous England teams.... too many good players in midfield but no actual way of fitting them all in. (see lampard/gerrard/beckham days)

don't worry - we aren't going to win

the issue is in an easy half we might luck/scrap the semi's or even final and then southgate gets a new contract..

edit: yes i've had a few :)

It was better today - they tended to at least rotate who's doing what, instead of both being in the same spot at the same time
