If he'd done it earlier we might have looked worth a win...
Pleased for the players who put the penalties away.
But by God the football is pretty dire.
England are the new Greece?

First half I was thinking ffs. The subs were the key, straight away, attacking and men in the box. He needs to just tell Bellingham and Foden to run at them. Soon as Palmer was running at them they were on the back foot and **** theirselves
Can’t say I am happy about penalties but they all did well, best I have seen, super composed 
Simple for me, they need to play to Kanes strengths and he needs to stay up the field or they have to drop him, great finisher but not getting any service, when we do have the ball he has the pace of a donkey and is on the half way line ffs
Really liked the look of Toni, him and Foden up front running at them could be something special for us

Taken a charmed path so far so wouldnt surprise me if they did, but wouldnt it be great if they could put in a performance we could all be proud of.
Apart from the last minute equaliser theres not been too much jumping off of my chair from me

Bit late but you never know 4 Shaqiri, but looking more & more like pens.
If the Netherlands play as slowly as they did last match Turkey will rip them to bits, but if they play the way they're capable of it could be 3:1.
My orange shirt is on, I hope my father (Dutch) is watching on from above 
Edit, Englands hopes in the hands of Trex
I really hope if it goes that way he becomes a hero

Maybe for 30 minutes if it stays 0-0
I like the lad Embolo.
And I'm also rooting for the Netherlands later on. Not just because of my Liverpool bias. Been a fan since the 1970's of Dutch football

Swiss need to bring Shaqiri on.

Yep, the commentators are saying Kanes making no moves  Are they watching a different game, he's made 3 runs with the ball on the R wing, where does it get sent, L of the box, same old same old.
Please Netherlands make football great again...or most likely not, I live in hope!

So he's playing wing backs for width and some attack down the flanks
However - he's got right footed Trippier on the left out of position and left footed Saka on the right out of position. So they both have to come inside to get on their better foot. Negating the use of wing backs entirely.
And the player with the best right foot and passing in English football who creates more from that right side than any other defender?
Nah. He's on the bench.
Fecking clueless

Been impressed with Cody so far. He was showing hints of this towards the end of the season. Hopefully he'll carry on in the same way when we kick off again.
I saw his goal and assist stats for club and country the other day. Seriously impressive

Your not wrong on both counts. I'm not really sure why Ronaldo was on the pitch tonight, he did nothing, as the commentators said. Some world class defending tonight. Back page of the papers calling it the boro's, I just hope tomorrows matches are better. I'm hoping the Swiss & Turks don't hold back, could be great games if so.
