Unfortunately, England just don't look as good as they did. I now believe Southgate has taken us as far as he can. Sterling, who has always been excellent for England, looks past his best now, but without him we'd be seriously lacking pace in the side. Poor game in the San Siro, with two average looking teams. Both have players missing, but it's a poor game.
Doesn’t inspire confidence about the World Cup, we look very slow, and we’re trying to hide Maguire so as he can’t make a mistake
Maguire has done ok, as have Dier and Walker. We're just not the threat going forward that we were. Grealish and Mount may make a difference. Must move the ball quicker.
Should have passed it. He's usually very good with that kind of pass. This England team look a pale shadow compared to recent times. Not very hopeful for the WC.
Foden given offside when a yard on. England looking a bit better. These officials are poor. Terrible challenge on Bellingham. Nothing given. Dirty ****ers. Bellingham starting to play too.
Don't get why nothing given for that challenge on Bellingham, that was surely dangerous play..........
I've come to the conclusion that I no longer know what is a foul and what isn't.......... same as hand ball, offside........
Another dirty challenge. This is why I've always disliked the Italians. This ref is too poor to get a grip.
Still think we weren't that great before, we just had the 2 best draws ever at major tournaments ! Still can't recall us beating 1 top team at either of those, probably Sweden and Denmark being the best of the teams we beat. Southgate did well for morale but isn't tactically astute and left changing things too long in both those tournaments when we were winning. Why is he playing Foden and Saka out of their best positions and why call up Toney only to leave him out of squad ? Crazy. Where are players who have been performing lately for their clubs when others who can't get in their club sides are playing here ?
