Long again - what's the fucking point!

Need to settle and get some decent possession because they are bossing this and their high press is better than ours.

No foul there - their two players fucked up and collided.

Our passing is so poor.

We are very ragged. Far too many long balls and we are not keeping it well enough.

If we're going to play long ball why isn't Stewart centre forward?

Nah, we're seeking compensation from them for letting us.

We must come flying out of the blocks in this and every game. It makes so much difference. None of this, work your way into the match. Hit them fast and hit them hard. No walking football - that's for old blokes. Get into 'em from the first whistle and keep at it for the whole game.

And won us 5 points!

Sorry but those are excuses not reasons he may decide to stick to 5 at the back. It has to be a back 4 after the players we brought in.

Good interview.

Just don't think he'll put Jelert straight in for this big game.

My guess at line up; Baz Mads Stephens THB Manning Charles Downes Fellows Azaz Fraser Archer Plenty of good options on the bench to help in any situations that arise during the game and I'm expecting Will to make full use of his subs to impact things. 3-1 Saints.

Mr Bellingham senior sounds a very egotistical, arrogant individual who thinks having two talented footballers for sons entitles him to be rude and aggressive to others. He should remember he is not the talented one and perhaps learn to act with a lot more humility. The danger is that he is given free reign to do and speak as he likes for fear of ostracising him which may lead to him impacting on Jude's club and England careers. It's not a great situation to have everyone including the England manager treading on eggshells and giving Bellingham preferential treatment.

Rogers started a little slowly but was absolute class and probably England's best player on the night. He was involved in most of the good stuff we produced and created loads of opportunities and chances to attack.

There is no way Edozie keeps Robinson out of the team.

Yeah, I guessed he must have been more effective in the first half. Slightly concerning that he dropped off so much in the last 25 minutes - maybe Germany scoring two quick goals knocked the stuffing out of him and the rest of the team.

Only watched the last 25 minutes of the German game. I'm assuming Charles had run himself to a standstill in the previous 65 minutes because he was a passenger for the part of the match I watched. Invisible would be being kind. Must have done something in the first half and into the second half because he stayed on for the whole game.

If he remains with us and becomes a fringe Championship player he is going to demonstrate quite clearly that he is not a good enough option for Nigeria's WC squad. So, if he stays, it's up to him to force his way into the team as a starter and put in quality performances to keep his place.

Most of the football was a disgrace that's for sure. The usual slow pace, side to side passing and lack of movement which is never going to break down a team set up to defend. Clumsy Dan Burns saw far too much of the ball.

If you're picking Dan Burns and Marcus Rashford as starters it's no wonder the team struggle.

We don't want another has been on big money clogging up the treatment room. There's a reason he's a free agent.

Agree but if all the hype about Tyler is on the money Everton will be a brief stepping stone in his journey to a top 4 club. Still to be convinced he is as good as many think and was happy to get the fee we did from Everton.

I think so too although others are suggesting Will is going to include all the new boys - just can't see that happening.
