Job done. Make the HT subs so that those with points to prove get their chance to show they are worthy of a squad place.
Charity gift of a penalty that. Very enjoyable performance though, don’t get to say that much with Southgate at the helm. Played to our strengths for once and that’s in attack and midfield, albeit Iran were awful.
Providing they give every shirt pull I will be happy. You can't do that unintentionally and it needs to be stamped out.
So does MMA takedowns. Khabib would’ve been impressed with that takedown by the Iranian defender on Maguire.
Not changing my stance on Sterling yet, but believe me I love to be proved wrong about this. So look forward to Sterling putting in a cross of the quality that Kane did for him, so that Kane can score! But if Sterling scores every game I'll be happy.
But more importantly that Sterling, it's amazing what happens when a team packed with attacking talent is allowed to attack!
Or this Ex Spurs Team No GK that I could find so Chris Gunter will have to play in goal Yedlin, Foyth, Alderweireld, Carter-Vickers, Vertonghen Modric Eriksen Bergwijn, Jansen, Bale
Oh, one more thing. Kudos to the Iran players for not signing the national anthem. Nothing against England taking a stance on stuff, but they do so from a place of relative safety. The Iranians might face difficulties from doing this, good luck to them.
Wasn't as clear cut in my view. Maguire deliberately ran into him in the first place so VAR might well have decided that was a foul so anything afterwards couldn't be a penalty.
