    As a Spurs supporter this is annoying, as he obviously
    has it in him to do Dembele-style MF driving forward,
    yet he rarely seems to.

    The longer this game goes on the more clueless England look. We have talent on the field but you wouldn't know it.

    We do have talented players, but I’ve always held the view that the players who create and provide for them at club level are invariably from abroad. The England team are always lacking those midfield playmakers and ball retainers, which trophy winning international teams need. Put a peak Pirlo or Modric or Iniesta etc in this England team - or preferably a couple of them - and the improvement would be huge. We have all other bases covered - except perhaps at centre back.

    We have Rice but losing Phillips didn't help. I think it's the negative mindset that probably comes from the manager that does not use our assets to the best of their ability.

    A New Scot but I still follow England at football. The frustration of following Scotland has to be tempered. :emoticon-0116-evilg

    It’s June, there’s no World Cup this summer, no Euros, so they should all be on the beach.

    Luxembourg won a match

    ...it was against a nine-man Faroe Islands, but the Book of Revelations wasn't that specific
