Mount has been the pick of the bunch, maybe Foden

Pick of a very poor bunch. We will not beat any of France, Italy, Germany or Portugal playing like this.

There is nothing extraordinary about England’s play. I gave them the benefit of the doubt vs Croatia, since it was the opening game. But watching them play Scotland it looks as though they have nothing special to offer. No real creative movement. No real chances created. No real connectivity.

Average will get them out of the group stage, but playing like this they’ll be beat in the first knockout round.

Italy or France would murder this England side. It would probably be a comedy watching it.

As for this game, more pace moving the ball, ideally behind the Scotland wing-backs or the channel between the outer centre-half and the wing-back is how to unhinge this set-up.

Foden off? Really Southgate? You should resign.

Agreed. Foden was the sharpest player on the pitch.

It’ll be very interesting to hear the reasoning behind taking our best player off, leaving the worst on the pitch by a country mile on and preserving with Kane who hasn’t looked at all on it for the best part of 2 games. If you’re not going to be play DCL, don’t take him.

Maybe it’ll be part of Southgates resignation statement

Can’t argue with any of that

Right player off (Kane), wrong man on. Need a target man, especially as we seem to now be lumping it upfield

Sterling diving

Yes but his foot was trodden on. That would’ve been given in the PL

**** me, what a pile of old **** this is from an England point of view. Southgate needs to have a long hard look at himself after this, it really is that bad.
