You haven't got a clue, pal.

I’m not your pal.

I’m not your pal.

I know that, pal.

shots fired

Watch the challenge on Kane you massive condescending c*nt and tell me that you think it's not a clear penalty. Then I'll tell you you're a liar.

Why do you feel the need for such childish language? I don’t use such against you.

Can’t you see that if the onfield referee doesn’t give it and the VAR referees don’t give then there’s probably a good reason that they didn’t give it?

This game needs half time. We’ve lost all rhythm and composure.

good 20 mins....crap there after

Trippier good

Sterling crap

Bloody hell.

You could argue that Walker wasn't clear and obvious to overturn, but missing the rugby tackle on Kane is ridiculous.

That was never a penalty against us and a clear one for us, ridiculous.

Lingard coming out for the second half will tell us all we need to know about our current manager.

I said earlier VARS isn't working. Either it's massively flawed or the people operating it are corrupt.

he puts himself in positions but he has missed 3 good chances in that half, keep him on and encourage him i reckon

Tell me what that reason could possibly be then. Go on - give me one good solid reason that the challenge on Kane wasn't a penalty.

Er.... because it wasn’t a foul?

It doesn’t matter what any of us think.

Bloody hell.

Both penalties for me.

How are all the hipster VAR darlings? Clear pen for foul on Kane

Good. Worth noting that the ref made both decisions, so we would have been in the same situation without VAR. At least, VAR presents the opportunity to catch those errors and inconsistencies. It didn’t in this case.

Have you had your meds?

Kane being dragged down was a stonewall pen...ludicrous having VAR if those types of decisions are made. Lingard is a big disappointment...needs to be 30% better or early sub.

I reckon we should give someone else a chance,can't afford misses like that at this level. If he needs encouragement he should look at his bank balance and the badge on his shirt.

As Lineker says that was sort of thing VAR brought in to pick up things that ref can easily miss. Would understand if didn’t review but they reviewed and concluded no foul which is baffling to all. Genuinely not looking t9 have pop at technology but needs explaining.

And again FFS you VAR cnts

Another penalty there then.

You start to wonder if there is some sort of conspiracy against us.

How can the lino give that offside!?

Officials are clueless in this match.

Jesus Christ referee

I don't watch a lot of England so can someone please explain wtf Henderson is doing on the pitch.

And again. Refs corrupt.

Would be interesting to know if the VAR refs would have given the Walker pen, though, under current rules, they can’t overturn the ref’s decision.

Also unclear whether they are applying their own standards to judge incidents or are trying to act consistently with the standards applied by the ref. Thus a ref might be more towards the lenient or strict end of the spectrum but the VAR refs aren’t which can lead to inconsistencies in the way the rules are applied.

No such thing ask Whitey

Got to be Rashford for Sterling soon

Sterling is a waste of space as a striker.

You what????

2 of the clearest pens you will ever see.

I’m a fan of VAR, but it’s only as good as the person using it and tonight it seems that whoever is using it doesn’t want England to score.

Disgraceful really.

Sterling is a waste of space as a striker.

always amazed with the fuss around him for England.

he has scored 2 goals ffs

mystified as to why Southgate has not made changes

I mean, there’s a lot of average out there, but still gotta feel for Bertrand. Even though he didn’t have a good season, he’s still been better than Ashley young. Even when he was quick he wasn’t that good, now his legs are shot he offers nothing.

Always amazed at how many want to single him out amongst everyone else. Including tabloids

Yeah, Young is a poor selection IMO.

Big Harry Maguire has looked v good again. Expect the top 6 will be sniffing around after the WC

Not good enough to tie Stephens laces according to some on here.

Maguire looks liable to get done by pace down the channel. He seems like a good lad but he's well short of the quality needed. And he's not alone in that.

2-1 Young

2-1 Young

***t hook him

Young and Sterling. Complete garbage.

We are never ever ever going to score.

Massive pile of steaming horseshît.

Fuçking Tunisia. Sterling, Walker, Alli, McGuire. Awful.

Makes you really appreciate Ryan Bertrand
