England half asleep. Off the pace. Is it the heat?

We're not playing Brazil here. 😝

How is Spence the answer???

I must have missed the hydration break.  Now I have to hold my wee in.

You're not supposed to drink your wee at a hydration break.

 

Are you?

[adrian lord]

Problem is, you don’t fancy us surviving extra time if we manage to limp through normal time with it still 1-1.

[Dr Who?]

This is awful, watch us nick it!

Cannot possibly use that excuse against Norway ffs 

They’ve just been better we’ve been shit anything other than that is an excuse 

[obelisk]

England still fannying around in their own half. The players look out on their feet so have to resort to walking football.

Unsure of what the question is if he is.

[Stripey McStripe Shirt]

Djed Spence on. No stopping us now.

Problem is, other than Bellingham and Gordon, nobody has been moving and really offering up for the ball. 

[SNSUN]

One sub left then, two if you include extra time. 

 

Oh we should have scored that. Great work Saka.

Yeah I think same although fully acknowledging we are total shite

Thousands of pints of Carling being ordered which is no different tbf.

[Gloucester Saint]

Better from Saka. Rogers on at last, who’s off then?

[adrian lord]

That was our chance 

[Stripey McStripe Shirt]

Prominent England flag behind the goal with Caernarfon Town on. That'll piss off the Welsh.

[Stripey McStripe Shirt]

Said it before, but Pickford is shit.

On many levels, finding the timing of this comment quite funny.

[Saint Billy]

Kane is right off the pace

Got to be say a scouse or manc exile surely?

Although some Rangers fans support England.

They all are! 

[benjii]

Kane is a mess. 

[SNSUN]

I couldn't even tell you what our formation is now. 😜

He obviously has a lot of goodwill but v poor tonight

[SNSUN]

Extra time will kill these players. 

[RedArmy]

Watching us scared to take anyone on is infuriating

Sort of a 433 I think. 

[SNSUN]

More of that. Come on England. Jude is lost in CM though and looks knackered. One sub in extra time, get Jude off for someone. 

[Dr Who?]

It’s so disjointed! 

[whelk]

It should be comforting going back to same old feeling of England driving me insane

[adrian lord]

Oh my God, have we gotta put up with another half hour or more of this?

[obelisk]

England's first instinct is always to pass backwards.

[SNSUN]

Anderson has ticked over nicely tonight. Nothing glamorous just gets on with it. Not sure he's worth the money but he's decent. 

[Dr Who?]

Commentators are desperate 

[trousers]

How is that not a free kick FFS?

[Saint Billy]

All the stadiums in the USA with roofs and air conditioning and they they play this game in a ridiculous hot spot with no roof.

Yep, not sure why they're discussing it as a potential foul. Clearly nothing in it.

[whelk]

And to cap it all that’s all my bets down you selfish bastards 

[Turkish]

Lucky not to be out, crap. Yeah it’s hot but it’s the same weather for both teams. 

[obelisk]

Kane has been so damn awful that he's bound to nick the winner.

[SNSUN]

Yay time for a quick Jimmy. Then back to the grind of the next 30 minutes before the inevitable penalty shootout that we will lose.

[Turkish]

We  always said he was revolutionary creating a dynasty. Everyone is coping Russball

[BotleySaint]

Norway the superior team. Tuchel needs to be brave and make subs for extra time.

I just went with Norway to qualify. Covers the cost of my beer. 

[adrian lord]

Time for Tuchel to earn his salary now

Not sure I agree, looked a bit lost without Rice.

Opened the thread on the wrong page and this is the first post I saw. 

Sigh.

One sub left. Gotta leave Kane on for pens. Jude for me. He's knackered. Either we go for it (bring Rashford/Watkins/Toney on) or we go defensive (bring Mainoo, Burn or Chalobah). 

Tuchel, over to you.
