    France, Denmark and Australia in the same group for the second World Cup in a row.

    Peru - even more weirdly - were the fourth team in the group in 2018.

    If England lose both matches to Hungary in the Nations League someone needs to ask questions of Southgate TBH.

    I am watching Costa Rica v NZ. Come on Kiwi's. The time wasting and antics by CR are not needed in the game. The All Whites are dominating this game, after conceding in the 3rd minute.

    We have looked poor for all these games. Today included

    Lots of possession, absolutely no creative spark. Can’t see a goal coming for England today.

    I've read a lot of excuses about the players being fatigued but it's no different now to a summer World Cup.

    This is just dire. We've scored one penalty from 3 and a half games now. Obviously Southgate isn't in danger just yet but a poor World Cup and he could be out the door.

    Irritates me to the core when they throw that about, Italy, Germany and Hungary are in exactly the same position.

    He’s bulletproof until the World Cup, but at this moment in time I am unsure we are good enough to get out of our group and that is recognising we are in a group with Iran, the US and Wales.

    Sorry @SaintinNZ. Was really hoping for a Kiwi win, but you fell victim to Costa Rica's incredible ability to play atrocious football and win 1-0. They were easily the least enjoyable part of the CONCACAF qualis, but there's no question that they can stifle a game.

    Dear oh dear. England are a shambles. Hardly good preparation for a World Cup.
