England making hard work of this, the Turks look organised and dangerous on the break, or maybe England's defence is making them look dangerous...
 
England as predictable as usual

Just in from more gardening duties and watching the 2nd half.

I wrongly assumed this match was at Wembley Stadium, but is actually in Manchester at the Ethiad since both the FA Vase and FA Trophy Final matches being played at Wembley today. In the FA Trophy I see that relegated National League side Halifax got one over promoted Grimsby winning 1-0, so good for them, a similar sort of story to Hibs beating promoted Rangers yesterday in the Scottish FA Cup Final.
 
Can't believe we are still 'looking at' players - every other team has a preferred starting 11 and a formula. We are 3 weeks away and still trying different options. Think Woy has had long enough to make his mind up.

An open, attacking formation allowed a good Turkish side to give us a few problems.
Vardy can't play out wide.
Better down the middle.
I don't like the diamond that we switched to, but it would allow Rooney to play behind Vardy and kane.
Rooney will take the penalties and free kicks.
Fantastic save by Hart.
First defeat for Turkey in 18 months.
Roy has to give everyone a game in these friendlies, as injuries can mess up plans.
Another win. Chalk it up and move on.
