So many average players 

TT said he had picked players for the system, not necessarily the best players.

What time's the flight back to Heathrow tomorrow?

[RedArmy]

It’s like watching Russball. Calamity at the back, keeper beaten at the near post, wingers turning round and going back towards their own goal. Shite, shite and more shite. 

[BotleySaint]

We had the ball back with Pickford a bit earlier. The only option on was a long ball to Bellingham that went out of play.

[Osvaldorama]

Genuinely don’t think I’d want Spence and madueke for Saints in the championship. Utter Toilet.

The hydration break brings forth a chorus of derision.

For England, the hydration break, or both?!!!

System smystem 

[BotleySaint]

Spence for all his faults actually making an effort. Running up wing, nobody supporting him.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

There's no surprise in how England are playing. We've seen the same issues already in this WC. They've just also managed to concede, and look a bit rattled.

Madueke looking to make an early delivery, with no one in the box.
Poor decisions and delivery, when there are players in there.
Forward players getting in each others way.
Not the best full backs
No real partnerships in the side. So, no dynamism in the play. 
DRC crowding the middle, knowing England will just pass it across the field.

Great reaponse from England... everyone just jogging around slowly.

Why cant they apply thier leaque football output in an England shirt?

[SNSUN]

Absolutely no love for this England team. Horrific. Best striker we're likely to have for years and it'll be wasted. 

[Turkish]

Fuck me the usless prick got a cross in, of course it was shit

[obelisk]

Cross the damn thing FFS!

Even crossing the ball in with no England player is better than nothing as could hit Congo player and go in.

DR Congo getting panicky at the back. Kane muscled out by ex-Ipswich defender Tunzabe.

[Window Cleaner]

This is Poland in 73 all over again

Getting past his man who is on a yellow because he ran at him, but end product still Sulemana-esque.

The love in for this fucking fraud is unbelievable- almost Orwellian levels in everyone telling you that England aren’t shit - most performances under him have been uttter shite and here we have it

[Toussaint]

The ref is a coont with a whistle. Rashfords just a coont.

This is shockingly bad. 

[Lighthouse]

We’ve started alright in the cricket.

[Toussaint]

Gets worse 

[SNSUN]

Var come on

[obelisk]

Kane dived. England desperate.

[Gloucester Saint]

Wissa missed a sitter.

That has to be a penalty for Kane. What a mess.

[adrian lord]

Jesus wept 

Congo are simply better than us.

[Disco Stu]

Where's our defence? Hot take, but Stones and Maguire would have made a better pairing.

[Stripey McStripe Shirt]

Horrible dice from Harry. Probably deserved a card.

[Whitey Grandad]

Two footed dive. Double tuck with pike. Or something. 

[Window Cleaner]

Wan Bissaka played for England U21s
