6ft Kerplunk He does better as an impact sub for England when defenders are more tired. We really need Foden to be fit for the whole finals.

Think he definitely does if we have a fit Foden. Would much rather have Grealish in over Mount or Saka though. I think he is far more capable of keeping the ball and winning free kicks in dangerous areas. The ball just seems to bounce off Saka.

If he touched him it’s a penalty.


But Kane was offside(?)

Along with the ref blocking Germany on the edge of the English penalty box he’s done England a few favours tonight.

Ball towards Kane was off a defender wasn't it?

Only if Kane was on the ball- it had gone past him.

Like what I've seen of Bowen in an England shirt over the last two games. Doesn't look out of place.

Grealish has been really good since he came on. Changed it for us.

We have one of the most talented group of players I've seen for England. I can't help but feel we are wasting them a bit with a limited manager. I don't dislike Southgate but I do feel a better manager is needed to make that final step.

People say this about every England team that’s ever been fielded in a competition since I’ve been watching football. We’ve always got a ‘great crop of young talented players’, talented mainly meaning they play for premier league clubs.

Southgate got us to a final with this group of English players. It astounds me how some England fans still criticise him.

I don't. There's clearly a lot of talent in the side. Who's to say England wouldn't have comfortably won the Euros with a better manager?
