Danny Rose not exactly filling me with confidence. Maybe he should of given Trent A-A a run out.
 
England would need to win if it stays 6-1.

I assume we’ll see Rashford start in the next game - Sterling has been poor again with another sitter missed and no influence in the game. Loftus-Cheek hasn’t really looked the part either. Defence still has shaky moments - Walker simply isn’t comfortable there and Maguire still seems better going forward. No one in the back three is actually an outstanding defender, they’re all better on the ball.

Overall though it’s been a thoroughly professional performance.
 
Well just saw the game out efficiently with only a small worry about the back three and mainly Walker back there but that’s a game full of positives for all the players - all the players must have had a hand in at least one of the goals - some great movement up front from Kane and Sterling that created a lot of space for players , some really clever moves from the set piece - Stones second was just superb and the passing up to Lingards was first class.

Don’t see the need for England to change much against Belguim
 
There hasn’t been a bad player on the pitch today, a lot of these players are doing a lot of work off the ball which we don’t see on the telly, unfair, imo, to highlight 1 or 2 individual errors we’re exactly were we’d want to be at this stage.
Depending on Alli’s injury I’d change nothing from either first 11 he started both games with.
 
Though it was an excellent game with a defensive mix up for there's. Al take that, But Stirling. He is not an out and out centre forward. The way the team is set up with three at the back and Trippier out wide right does not play to Stirlings strengths, ie pace. Yup he was involved in a couple of goals but if you are playing with two up front he has to play Vardy or Rashford alongside Kane.

He’s playing to what he believes is the best way with the players at his disposal, he’s not trying to play the “City” way or to the strengths of one player, maybe he sees Sterling fulfilling a number of jobs in that team rather than just one or two.
2 wins in 2 games and maybe we won’t go further than the last 16, but right now Southgate hasn’t got much wrong.
 
We can only beat what’s in front of us and the lads did it well.

am sure we will be tested in future but we have shown them we can score goals ( except Sterling ) piss poor miss.

Havent seen anyone better yet so if we defend well you never know.

This I agree with, Stirling was involved in two of the goals, but if it is an out and out forward he wants, I would go with rashford or Vardy. The balance of the team looks excellent so i would not change it.
