    He literally booted the ball over next doors wall for no reason. It was like watching a kid who never gets a pass suddenly getting a pass and not knowing what to do. So he just kicks it away.

    It looks to me like he's in the huff. Get him off and get a left winger on.

    I've read various lists of "best players" or "most valuable" and he's on the lists. I've seen him multiple times for both Arsenal and England and I'm not sure what I've missed?

    This is like watching a Tommy Morrison fight. He wins the first 3 rounds then it's a struggle and at the end he's nearly dying

    He CAN go past people and that IS a rarity but it's his ability to do more and to DO IT FOR 90 minutes ....that's the thing.

    England's goal came because Bellingham backed himself and gambled on a deflected cross. That's the difference at this point. Enough to get past Denmark? Probably. Enough to beat France or Germany? Probably not.

    Harry Kane tried to get out of his own half like an old geezer trying to get up the steps of St Paul's cathedral.

    It doesn't matter what the official "result" was, I scored it a draw.

    Cesc sailing awfully close to the wind of blaming Southgate. Suggests you never see "really really top players" doing the things that Foden and TAA did and suggests that there a reason for that.....

    All joking aside Serbia didn't really show enough quality to warrant a share of the spoils but had enough to make England look dicey.

    It was more business like than one would have hoped for if you are rooting for England but they got the job done and all 3 points. It's easier to work out kinks than points.

    To be fair it is pretty much how we played in the group stages last time out and we ended up making the final. It wasn't impressive but I'll take the result.

    Comes down to Southgate ultimately, there is no gameplan...they lost their way in second half and beyond a few substitutions, there was no adjustments....Kane was poor enough, TAA doesn't belong in that position, they haven't found space for Foden...

    TAA doesn't belong there...so what's the first thing he did after the game? Came out and thanked the staff who made sure the position "worked" for him. ....After he got subbed for Topknot Gallagher, a guy who couldn't lace his boots.

    Drives me fucking mad. It's like a Stalinist mantra. Say it or die.

    Same with Trippier who had a decent game right up to the point that they started zeroing in on him.

    Cesc Fabregas only man in the studio not up to the gills in Soho Square Cool Aid.

    We all know England aren't winning anything under Southgate. Same old story and headlines unfolding at this tournament.

    Southgate is shite. Turning silk into a sowes ear is some trick. Dull fitbaw from a dull man.

    Thought holland looked very good going forward, shouldve won by 3 or 4

    The lad is phenomenal. Really is. His all-round game and attitude. It's so frustrating for Foden that he's around, as Foden's best position is where Bellingham plays. I think you can't play Foden on the right. You drop Foden. Bellingham is the key. Such a shame Southgate is in charge.
