Mings, philips, rice, mount, shaw, james

Thats half a team who wouldnt be out of place playing for scotland

Sterling and Kane the only top players and Kane isnt really a top player, just a top poacher

Mcginn, Tierney, Gilmour, Mctominay, Robertson all good enough for yous, lucky we have zero attacking quality or would have won
 
We aren't going to hear the end of this historic draw from the Jocks are we <laugh>

Sterling a top player? You need to get off the Buckfast mate.Nobody thinks Sterling is a top player.He has just come off the worst season of his career and shouldn't even be playing for England.
We only have 3 top level players in my opinion, Mount, Foden and Reece James. The rest are just very good .

England 7/1 to win outright. Wycombe have more chance of getting into the Premiership <laugh>

It seems that Southgate has this plan to ease not concede, nick the first, then sort of hold on, which to be fair had the header from Stones gone in it would have gone that way. But it didnt, we had no other plan going forward. Kane looks lost in this system, dosnt know if he's o hold the line line a no.9 should, or drop back in to the middle of the pitch to just get involved. He looks shot at in my opinion...!!

As for the rest of our midget gems, Sterling, as most of us have said, has very much flattered us with this supposed skills and goals, and is another looking for something good to happen which it isnt. Foden looks very lively, but again just seems to be too isolated, Harry, lead the line, feed off him, oh wait, you cant run as your a bit of a cart horse arnt you...!!

As for the rest i dont get the clamour for Rice, he's not International level or top 6 level, so why he's being linked with them is well beyond me...

Give the Scots some credit, their plan seemed to go to what Steve Clark wanted and they knew that they had to avoid a loss at all costs, so to play with a little a little freedom in their attacking play is a plus. But did anyone really think that they were going to score...?!?

Poor game, poor team, and poor performance from the England... More of the same come Tuesday...

With a clinical finisher they could easily have had a couple. Fortunately their strikers were as dour as ours

I just found England very static, as they were against Croatia. Time after time the man with the ball was forced into the "square pass" because none of the team mates in front of him were in space. The movement off the ball is non-existent. Surely Jadon Sancho deserves a chance? Despite only playing 26 matches for Dortmund last season he still had 8 goals and 11 assists and would offer something different. I'd give Kane and Sterling a rest next match and start with Sancho and Rashford.

Wow.

France are rubbish. I can't believe I thought these could actually win the competition. Only 2 or 3 of these French players would get into the Hungary team. Even England haven't conceded a goal, etc etc

France are only any good because they've put an Everton player in.:bandit:

Sancho isn't one of "Gareth's boys"
