    France changed formation to counter the Swiss yesterday, and it didn’t work

    Apart from the 3 goals they scored.

    Calm down FFS - the game is only just 10  minutes old.

    I'm hoping that horrible first 10 minutes was just nerves.

    Hope we score the winner in the 80th min rather than the 15th, less time to defend nervously

    As expected it's taken a bit of time for England to settle but we're starting to pass the ball a bit now. Need to keep some calm possession and then release the wingers when we can

    Bar the first 5 I think we’re playing pretty well although I’d love to have seen Mount in for Rice based on things so far

    Absolutely, I'd rather surrender the first 10 minutes and then grow onto the game and have the better of it from there. Lots of matches play out like this - one team out the blocks fast but if they fail to score the balance of power shifts as the game goes on. Lots of minutes to play here, lots of time to for the pendulum to swing.

    I just don't know how so many people can watch so much football but then every time they watch a new match act like they've never seen one before.

    Shaw is so isolated on the left. There’s literally no point passing him the ball as we don’t have someone within 15yards of him. Ball then goes backwards.

    They are doubling up on saka now, need to play around him for space

    Sterling drifting inside too much. Playing through the middle also does nothing for Kane imo 

    If Sterling scores though then I don’t mind it

    Saka is causing them so many problems, he’s really making a name for himself at this tournament

    Well worked between Shaw and Sterling... Come on boys. Shaw knew exactly what he was doing.
