    Weve got a very good squad at the moment i think with loads of young talent.
    The only thing that lets us down is we have no decent Centre backs.

    Harsh red card IMO. Thought the keeper comfortably had it and Alli wouldn't have scored. Definite pen Monday's, as I type, France score as they're outplaying us atm

    Fell away badly in the last half hour against 10 men. Back to the drawing board...

    Our so called established players were poor
    The newish caps are crap
    We have good players but Southgate needs to pick the best squad

    The strengh in depth they have is just ridiculous.

    there is no flair within the team in midfield or upfront ,the french on the other hand have it in bundles and exciting to watch.

    We were frighteningly poor against 10 men in the 2nd half last night, France ran rings around us but as mentioned earlier it's not difficult considering we have rubbish centre halves. Pogba embarrassed Cahill, Stones and Jones just embarrassed themselves!

    John Stones wouldn't start ahead of John O'Shea if he was at Sunderland man!! (OK maybe an exaggeration but I just don't see what makes people wax lyrical about him!)

    Alan Brazil said this morning - "I Love John Stones - the way he plays the ball from the back" - bet Everton fans were over the moon that they got £50m for him @Tobes

    Played way too deep against 10 men. Clearly terrified of the pace the Frogs have up front.

    IMO were poor in central defence,
    We have very little vision in midfield, Dier is exactly that in a creative sense, Dire.
    Delle Ali is bone idle and falls over at every opportunity, ie, last night penalty and were lightweight up front, Kane can't do it all himself.
    But apart from that were not a bad side<laugh>

    Watched the whole game and we were sleepwalking, poor in all departments, the French were just too good for us.
