    Seems very subdued, I think when comparing it to the WC/Euros a few years ago! 

    First game jitters still

    Croatian manager looks like he has rolled out of the local Premier Inn having not washed for weeks.

    I don't watch any premier league football, so this is the first I've seen of Foden, my god he is good, so rapid.

    It seems odd Southgate makes such on odd decision so early in the tournament. If the Trippier idea goes tits up, he's toast. Unless we go on to win it. I just read England are the country who've played most matches in the Euro finals (31) without winning the bloody thing.

    In a pub near the SS Great Britain for the game. Beer is £2.25 a pint. It’s like BOGOF.

    I owe Mount and apology. Has shown he can be every bit as good as Foden.

    If this first 8 minutes is an indication of how we will play this tournament, we have a very, very good chance.

    Don't get the point of Phillips in this team. 

    They look nervous.

    Why does Walker turn into Tony Hibbert in an England shirt.

    Can't remember us looking so calm in possession and comfortable playing in tight spaces

  • Playing well, but need to put our chances away.

    I have only seen Phillips out played 3 times, probably seen him 20 or so times.  Once by Bruno Fernandes and twice by Johnny Williams :smile:
