  • We must stop sitting so deep.
  • Shame... Too back footed best we can hope now is pens
  • We need to regroup and find something. 2nd half performance was poor.
  • Jesus. Unless we grow some replacement bollocks we might as well buy a couple of rolls of extra strong mints and queue at departures.
  • Would like to see the power of RLC and the pace of Rose come on now
  • Southgate has got that wrong second half. Came out too defensive and gave Croatia confidence. Now we're completely ragged.
  • Only winner out of this is France, extra day to recover and now extra time, they must be laughing their heads off.
  • Always happens when a team equalises. They gain confidence whilst the other side loses it. 30 minutes for us to get a winner.

    Other than the goal have we had an effort on Target? Pickford been by far the busiest keeper. Losing it in midfield, too outnumbered. Something needs to change. Penalties might be our best hope at the moment.

    Kane has costs us here, and I rate him so highly

    Kane is our talisman - so much so that if he is carrying a knock we are unlikely to take him off as it would be such a boost to Croatia. And he is our number one penalty taker so needs to be on the pitch at the final whistle.

    Fuck this shit.

    Welcome to watching England.
    We scored too early and couldn't decide whether to twist or stick.

    I think I know who's winning that this year.

    The English woman's netball team.
  • Just got a text from my Scottish pals saying they enjoyed the second half...
  • After playing with such freedom for so long, they've suddenly realised that they are wearing England shirts and have reverted to type.
  • We've just let them have the ball and given Modric and Rakitic too much time with it. If we're sitting that deep we can't even counter because Rashford is halfway inside his own half and Kane isn't quick enough to maintain a counter attack.

    I'm not sure what Southgate does here. Rose on for Young is an obvious move as Young is getting pulled inside too much.
  • That was very, very worrying. Not only conceded but showed absolutely no positive glimpses. Everything that we were doing positively went to shit.
  • England seemed to revert to type, too many aimless hoofs up the pitch
  • Shame... Too back footed best we can hope now is pens

    Don't be stupid. We've got 30 mins to score here.

    Spot on. Fell to pieces.
  • Fuck all this negativity.
    Come on England

    Game of two halves.

    Croatia adjustments in the second half gave them control, Rebic switched from right to left. Trippier couldn't handle the overload on that side of the pitch on his own, Dele Alli not as effective tracking back there as Lingard is on the left hand side defending Young.

  • Fifa won’t let us have corners now
  • Can Rashford fuck off with the tricks please.

    Blatant corner...
  • We need to score in ET as their keeper is a specialist penalty saver.
  • They have already started playing for pens.
  • Who do we have to bring on?
