Finally Southgate actually puts players on the pitch that want to have a go at a defence

Want to see sterling replaced see what others can do ..

Phil's wet dream has occured

The victory will go down to him ofc

Here comes England’s Lion Heart. He single-handedly eradicated the world of small pox, did you know?

Nice to see Hendo given a run out

I heard he single handedly made the covid vaccine

Henderson’s on

 

[Kellfire]

Can’t believe Grealish had the temerity to not be seven foot tall to be on the end of that perfect cross from Jesus Henderson.

Looks like a bit of change in the set up as well - pushing Henderson forward a bit more into the 8 role leaving just one sitting , good to see a change in thinking looking to get on the front foot more

Great going forward but we still look very slow playing out from the back.
Shaw had a good half for me.
Sterling does look better more central.
Saka and Grealish the difference.

So Hendo is playing where Philips was, and Philips is moving back to where Rice was. Not really a change of formation.

good to see modric looking well past it again

Argh

Take a bow modric

The moving of Phillips back seems to have made us lose our zip

Almost like a half fit player can't do the same job

Hopefully the next lot of subs will bring it back

Guy's still got it ( in spades-allowed to say that ? )
What a goal----TBH we're really not in their class are we??
If we ( somehow ) get a result out of this then I think we will have been 'PURE DEAD JAMMY' ( Glasgow Patois-don't you know )

 

[Piece]

Did I just see Stones on the right wing?! ??

 

[Jimaroid]

How about we stop the “tit for tat” childish comments before this thread gets locked!

Shame it’s mostly just tit though.

 

[Kellfire]

Change your pants, Phil. Offside.

Humble pie returned to the fridge ?

Really cannot understand why Southgate not thrown on Sancho ( he gives him 7 mins?? or DCL Kane ineffective Takes Grealish off instead giving him a whole game Why?. Rashford on again despite not showing anything in last two appearances. brings on Mings whose played both games.
Apart from goal we have been average again and allowed Checks to stay in game.
Need to improve massively to get past last 16.
