    Kane's movement has been shocking, foden had the ball centrally looked to pass forward - only kane ahead of him - and kane was stood still in a position where foden couldnt pass it to him

    Got to move more to give his teammates a target to play off

    Probably a bit of a stupid statement but I don’t think your 9 should be a captain. It should be someone who’s generally in the middle of the pitch to bark orders.

    Mainoo the only player showing for the ball and looking to make something happen.

    He'll get hooked at half time.

    What have we done to deserve a 2024 of Beale, Dodds and Southgate?

    Le Bris better be a Pep/Klopp hybrid or I give up.

    Do you mean a number 9 shouldn’t? As I agree totally. Never have a centre forward as captain.

    It's the fans out there I feel sorry for. A lot of money paid to watch these gutless tossers

    Bored. Every game the same. System is ****e. Southgate is ****e.

    Get some balls and switch the system or pick up the P45 before the flight home.

    I think it would be a totally different dynamic if you took Kane off (shock, horror) and stuck Watkins or Gordon on. If I said we had been w*nk I would be being polite and I hope the pundits say it as it is and dont try to defend that sh*te.

    Awful first half - but a few signs that we can get back into this
    - time to change it Gareth
    Kane off for a start

    No team ever wins with Kane.

    Brilliant goalscorer but is his lack of pace and movement an issue?

    An off the shoulder player like Ollie would make us so much more dynamic.

    I think this will be a pattern which will continue in international football. For the majority of the Slovaks players, this will be one of their biggest games of their career. For all of the English players it simply isnt. And it shows. Not be long until a lesser team wins the tournament. The Swiss/Italian game is another perfect example.
