What a goal. Watch that again Mourinho.
Had to rewind as missed the goal.
Nice goal. England in total control.
Great goal.
1-0 Rashford 
England so good, teams will need so much luck to stop them on WC.
Yeah. All the way in Leeds.
1-0 Rashford
What a hit
I've just come in to this.
I don't understand, the 2 games before the WC, changing the entire team. Does he not know yet what his best team is?
And, if this is the 2nd team, notwithstanding that they are never going to play together, because the first team can't possibly be injured all at the same time. What happens if they perform better than the 1st team, do we bin Kane, Ali, Sterling etc?
Southgate is an idiot.

Rashford without joses shackles is great to watch
decent game so far.
Cracking goal form Rashford.

Oh give over
Vardy & Rashford > Kane & Sterling.
You're contradicting yourself. If this is his second team then clearly he knows what his first team is and a friendly against Costa Rica will make little difference to his team selection.
Henderson is utter wank
Rashford and Kane is the one.
Jones? Our new right winger?
In which case, he has no idea who to play, if he completely changes the team for the 2nd game.
Both Rashford and Sterling make great runs and are both great as impact players late on I recon.
I think its more about everyone in the squad getting some match time prior to the world cup. I'm no Southgate fan, but can't argue against it really. If half the squad hadn't played for a month before our first game, it would hardly be ideal.
Rashford has to start up front with Kane against Tunisia.
If we had a squad as talented as Germany/Spain then Sterling would be great off the bench. As it is, he is probably our best player so has to start.
He's clearly giving all the players minutes. You can't fault what he's trying to do. From bedding in Stones through two starts (who's lacking games yet important to Southgate) to giving the likes of Rashford, Dier and Rose a game (the three players most likely to contest for a starting berth against Tunisia).
I wouldn't have picked Delph but you can see why he was selected in the squad. You're not getting that sort of pressing and energy from Wilshere.
Clear that Southgate is going down the energy/movement route. Any sitting midfielder(s), be it Dier, Henderson or both, are there to plug holes. The form and movement of Lingard, Sterling and Alli is going to be crucial.

Rashford should start the opener, and so should Ashley Young.
He is the only good player we can play off the right if we opted to go that way.
Edit: Forgot Lingard
Yeah, Delph has looked decent so far
What are they shouting at Navas?
This is our best lineup. Possibly Walker for TAA.
Southgate has done a very good job. I thought he'd be a disaster. Kudos to him.
Wc is yet to start mate
Alexander-Arnold is giving Walker a run for his money. His crossing ability is brilliant
Rash playing well. Great goal.
Just makes me wonder what the hell happens at United. We seem to sap people's confidence or something.

Anyone know what the crowd are saying every time Navas kicks it?
I get that performances at major tournaments are the yardstick for international managers but he has created a framework for success that I've never seen before in an England team.
Walker is crucial in that right central defensive role, for me. Look how often Jones has picked up the ball in the final third. Walker makes so much more of a difference.
Ooohhhh, you shit bastard. Ahhhh.
Oh to be from Leeds.
