Aside from the set pieces I was impressed with Trippier.
No benefit at all. Finishing second will most likely be the easiest of routes to the semi's.
Jordan keep going Henderson.
Interesting, thanks.
For many , rooting against England is all they have at major tournaments with their own nations never qualifying .
Ditto. Would have preferred him to take those free kicks than Young.
Good interview from Maguire there, honest assessment of his performance.
Normally England have a load of deeply unlikable players. Not really the case this time around, unless Vardy gets on.
Vardy is great, hated him at first, but i respect him now
Not sure why Vardy should be unlikable. Walker and Alli look to be the only unlikable players in this England squad.
Not sure there is to be honest, 2nd we would maybe get a slightly easier game, but if they want to win it ( not saying we will) , they have to play the best.
I said it in the last few friendlies. Every time RLC came off the bench or started he looked the most adept player in midfield and most likely to make something happen. I like to think merit is an actual thing. When reputation precedes performance then you only have yourself to blame when you don't perform. It's about time RLC was rewarded for his consistently excellent cameo's from the bench.
I quite like Vardy, prove himself to me more than a one season wonder.
I don't mind Vardy to be honest, seems like a bit of a lad.
Let's get one thing straight, with this young squad and with Jordan Henderson's limitations we've got a target of the quarter final's as our main aim. Beat Panama and we're through as Tunisia won't get anything from Belgium.
Maguire, Pickford, and Stones are far too raw for us to go any further but it's fantastic experience and will serve their careers well. It's just a crying shame Wilshere can't stay fully fit as he's levels above Henderson ability wise and that's a weakness of ours.

Didn't he whip in both corners for our two goals?
Showed in the last twenty, aimlessly moving the ball, no one really taking ownership or responsibility.
The corners were alright, it was more the free kicks.
Probably because of that Rafael incident. I hated him too, but now i like him
You mean that 5-3 game ?
We did ok. Two goals from corners. Against one of the weaker teams.
Can't miss those chances against good opposition or we won't be going very far.

Was actually really chuffed for Southgate. Just hope no matter whatever happens he is allowed to continue with the development of this team.
Yeah
Might be delusional but I wouldn't rule it out. Belgium have got a very good squad but I think they're overhyped.
Tunisia did enough to earn a point there.
At best they get a draw if we win we're through. Two wins equal qualification.
Hardly neutral.
But I wouldn't get bothered by such antics if I were you.
It shows how much better than their teams you are.
I've doubted some of my comments on here tonight (I've had a few beers) I feel a lot better now
.The ref was a disgrace. He gave Tunisia a soft penalty, but when Kane was manhandled twice in the box he just waves it off and continues play? VAR needs to be assertive in these situations. Awful refereeing.
ok. Your tag toughI didn't watch the game.
wtfThe first corner was young.
Not for me. A lot of teams get praised for scraping out draws by throwing ten men behind the ball. I don't believe that should be the case. When you set up to invite pressure, constant pressure, and you offer absolutely nothing going forward on the counter-attack, then my belief is that you deserve exactly what you were willing to risk. Nothing.
They did enough to earn a pint at the bar at best.
Never heard Kyle Walker speak before … pussy!
Did they bollocks.
Is it just me or do England always seem to win when BBC show the games and the cock up games happen on ITV far more frequently?
Would be interested on the stats last 20 years on how well England have done on each channel?
I remember only euros game they won v Wales was on BBC and think ITV showed the other three games.
