I was going to say the same, it's not like he's made 8 or 9 saves each game, it's been 1 or 2 really good ones. I think it's just the expectation was low for him since he's not an exceptional keeper, but he has far exceeded those expectations so far.

Not from Southgate it wasn’t and since when has he ever let England down?

It’s not the draw which is the issue, it’s the gloating by some of the Scots, just as they have done since they beat England in 67, gloating on it for 54 years. It’s yesterday’s news. The danger is that if England win the tournament, or however far they go, there’ll be some reedy snivelling voices saying, “we’re as good as you.” They we’re on the night but they’re not Or they’d be in the Q/F’s.

That's a bit harsh, many Scot's I know were heartily congratulating England beating West Germany for the first time in 55 years.;)

As I keep saying, it's not a different bloke that plays for Everton. It's the same guy. Unless you reckon he just doesn't care enough to play that well for Everton? The fact he hasn't made a clanger for England yet is only law of averages because he's played 160 odd times for Everton and 35 for England. But, long may it continue.

Are Kane’s scoring statistics the same as his Spurs ones??
 
Orikoru said:
0.6 goals per game for England, 0.68 for Spurs (league only) so not a million miles apart. Why did you ask?

If your quoting Pickford’s performance stats .. although perhaps the blunder count is not wholly transparent. You have to look at every one else’s and seeing as Kane and Sterling are favoured they should get more scrutiny. But I think Kane’s last goal was the ball hitting him ? and should not be counted .. greater credit should go to Grealish ?????

All the credit should go to Luke Shaw

He also carried the ball forward drew the defenders and gave Grealish an easy opportunity to put the cross in for Kane.

Like Grealish did in reverse for Shaw's assist? :ROFLMAO:

Its a team game man! Shaw and JG do link up very well though, I'd have him at Villa....
