Why is Foden not running at the defence? Just seems like the players are being too cautious. No urgency. I think France (particularly their defence) are being shown a bit too much respect.

He's wasted over there, stick him over with Saka, cause some panic around the French box.

I'm sure Henderson was alongside Saka at one point, but I couldn't tell if he was actually breathing.

I think/ hope that by 60 mins, if nothing’s changed we’ll get Henderson off and bring on one of Grealish or Rashford, that way Foden can shift to the middle behind the front three, that French defence look uneasy so far with Saka and Kane, if we add another attacking threat I think they’ll **** the bed and we could get something.

I don’t think he’s had it enough to do so to be fair but equally he could do more to be involved. Saka’s caused them a number of problems on the other flank but just lacked that final pass or shot, I think there could be a goal in it for him or Kane though if we get it right/ have a bit of luck.

Need Bellingham to play like he done against Iran/ Senegal too, if he finds that form then we could do some serious damage once he finds any of the front three.

Defo this. We're better than this scoreline suggests.

I want to say we're better than France but tbf to them they've stepped down a gear after going a goal up so early. But I'll say it anyway, I think we're better <laugh>

I agree, I do too.

If they didn’t have all the injuries then they’re clear of us with Benzema/ Kante etc but this current XI I say we have the slight edge in overall quality, especially in depth too.

Down to us and Southgate to prove it.
