Same as that. I have tickets for the IOW festival that weekend as well though so looks like it'll be a ferry back from the festival on the Friday morning, up to Wembley for the footy and then back to the festival on Saturday morning. Covid permitting of course
Why we're playing internationals, let alone pointless friendlies, right now is ridiculous.
Armstrong booked, which means he's suspended for the Israel game on Wednesday.

Score doesn't really reflect the game though. England could easily have made it 1-1.
Belgium 2-0 England by the way.
In the light of the great Ray Clemence’s career, Jordan Pickford is not fit to clean **** off his boots.

Harsh. Took a deflection off Mings.
All very predictable really, we play someone half decent and become **** at football.
Glad I don't care about whether England do well or not

Surely a team with the attacking resources and depth that England possess shouldn't need to play with 3 CBs.

Harsh maybe, but Southgate’s loyalty to him doesn’t make him better than the fourth best English keeper at the moment.
We have definitely had a poor Nations League this time, the last Nations League group was the peak of this squad so far, getting above Spain and Croatia was laudable (More of an achievement than the World Cup semi in context of who we played).
We seem to have gone backwards since then, although I also think this is far from our best XI.
The freekick went over Mings who failed to jump much the same as JWP's second freekick recently.
That’s very true, well spotted. Surely 2 different coaches wouldn’t have told Mings to watch out for the grubber kick?
Don't think we've actually played that badly. Undone by a poor pass from Dire and a deflection and a great free kick which I didn't think was a foul.
