I don't mind Jonathon Pearce or even Keown tbh.

Pearce deffo

Keown but only cos he speaks a good game. His delivery is monotonous af

Phillips won the game.

I think I might have to update my avatar to Englands saviour Sterling.

An uninspiring 1-0 is probably the best way to start a tournament, the teams that look world-beaters in their first game invariably fade away as it goes on.

I think if I learned anything from yesterday, we need better protocol for such events. Crisis management. Personally I don't think the game should have been recommenced yesterday, ragardless of Eriksen supposedly giving it the ok.

It shouldn't have even been a question, the match should have been cancelled and rescheduled, and UEFA need to organise events in such a way that matches do have time to be replayed, for what is rare events. Suggesting the schedule is too tight is not good enough. I know changes can impact fans, but that's what happens in any crisis, covid having the biggest impact as one.

As for updates about the well-being of Eriksen, IMHO it isn't helpful when the BBC cut to re-runs of programs, I just switch to the news or take to twitter, simply because we saw something happen, and we want to know he's ok, it's human nature. The problem then is verifying if pictures such as Eriksen sitting up with an oxygen mask are genuine, because the realiable sources have cut us off.

Charity adverts think nothing of showing us emaciated animals, and children in third world countries at deaths door looking nothing more than a bag of bones. Or news channels showing an enormous explosion that ripped away many lives and structures afar.

If anything showing Eriksen in a distressed state, is a reminder and teaches us all the importance of what's needed to save a life, afterall one day we may have to deal with it for real. I see what I look at not as a ghoul but an education.

Should have just cut to studio. I was on BBQ duty and was called in, went right back out. Was my own censorship. Just happy he is still alive.

It’s a one in a million thing, but bloody hell turn it off!

Phillips had a brilliant game.
