    We have never had the rub of the green in any tournament.

    Still enough time to get back into this match of course. But if we’re relying on officials then we’re already out.

    Might as well get on the plane now if there's no change in attitude at half time.

    Exactly the same as 2018 and 2021.

    We seem to be scared of what France is capable of rather than taking the game to them and pressing them when they have the ball

    Exactly as predicted.

    When the pressure is really on Southgate's instinct is always to step backwards.

    It's a nothing game, they haven't been very good and 2 bad refereeing decisions and a brilliant goal is the difference.

    We've been poor though. Our defence are scared to pass the ball and our midfielders are not breaking the lines and causing their 2 midfielders to commit and as a result Foden and Saka can't get anything going.

    Nothing to do with tactics though, the players need to be braver on the ball.

    One plus is that Kane is a danger to them when he gets the ball. We need to get him more involved.
