You think it's good to draw at home to Ukraine?

England have no divine right to turn up & win; it seems to be fashinable to berate & dismiss England. Too much hoof ball, too many old players, the manager is rubbish we have heard it all before. With a weakened side full of youngsters playing passing football & not panicking it was an entertaining game where Hodgson got his subs correct.
 
Gastón just put a FK into the wall, then volleyed the rebound wide. Nearly had an assist too, looks very tricky and dangerous.

Uruguay just hit the bar, from a Suarez shot.
 
Ukraine are a strong side and England were forced to play a weakened team. We had chances which on another day would have gone in. Football is a game played by feet but decided by inches as they say. Ukraine missed chances as well. Only one team goes through automatically, so snatching a late draw is not a bad result.
 
Certainly doesn't lack confidence. He's completed a lot of audacious attacking passes, he's not always looking around - but very aware of what's going on around him. Very creative and incisive.
 
That was nice to see too, Gaston chasing back, blocking a shot and getting the tackle in before moving back upfield preparing to bring the ball back out again.

They were the last unbeaten team in the South American group before Friday's result so they can't be that bad.

From what I saw of the first half he didn't look afraid to get stuck in, which will be useful!
