I see rugby tackles are legal now, as long as you are not on the ball.
The poor thing is, it was asked to be looked at to see if anything happened in the box, so how was that missed?
The good news is we are creating lots of chances. The bad news is only one has gone to Kane and the others need too many goes to get one in. We need to be more clinical.

Typical first half. So much promise and then struggling. Big fifteen minutes for Southgate

England are obsessed with passing it back and Maguire and Stones are playing the wrong ball time and time again leaving Pickford to bail them out. Decent going forward but it’s unbalanced.

Headless chickens a lot of the time , lots of energy with chances but missed. Need another in the middle who can create and not have a right back who can’t defend in the back three
How that wasn’t a penalty no idea
The quality is there they just need to maybe calm down a little , a lot to be positive about

Poor finishing once again.
What is Walker doing there.
Mguire looks nervous making to many mistakes.
VAR why is that not a penalty poor from officials
We should be four up.

It’s been a really good first half from England.

If you were Southgate what changes would you be thinking about? Rashford on for Lingaard/Sterling? Sacrifice a centre back and go to 4 at the back and bring on Vardy up front with Kane with Lingaard and Sterling out wide?

Rashford for Lingard or Aliand Loftus Cheek for Walker
Then put Loftus Cheek in a three with Henderson and Ali/Lingard with Sterling Rashford and Kane as a front three

Loftus cheek for alli and rose for young.
I’d also check that the var officials have the match switched on!!
Whilst we can comfortably be unhappy with the officials on & off the pitch, without some wholesale changes quickly and a change of formation, this isn’t going to change, we can’t leave it too late.

Why is Sterling out there? Get him and Alli, who clearly isn't fit off. Get Rashford on. This is starting to drift and we need to find a lift somewhere

Watched my first 10 minutes of football in over twenty years this evening, on the plus side I now know the name of and could identify (ala question of sport) one England player, the captain & no 9 (is that still the centre forward ?) on the minus side, nothing has changed in that twenty years. I don't think I shall bother to watch any more as the excitement nearly sent me to sleep.
Sterling, Ali and Lingaard. All three are flat this half.
Fair play, Henderson is spreading it well. Never thought I'd say that 😁

Dele isn’t fit and should be off.
