Same old same old England.


How so? Intelligent formation, patient controlled play, accurate passing with pace ,good movement and invention.not one bad performance. Just unlucky that the chances just didn't fall right.In fact it was nothing like watching England.long may it continue.

Good test that, better than thrashing some remote country 5-0 or whatever. So many players under 23 in that squad, Stones, Dier, Alli, Rashford, Redmond, Ward Prowse and Lingard all with room to develop and all regulars for their PL clubs. Add the experience of Hart, Cahill and Lallana and I think we look good. Think the plan is to grow this squad for Euro 2020 and the World Cup in 2022.

Agreed. The most intelligent play i have seen from England for a long time. Gone is the big hoof to a target man and we have a fair bit of skill and pace in there. England were unlucky, but at this level, it's about those little moments.

Very pretty. Promised much but achieved nothing.

No cutting edge. No goals. No result.

Bad luck? Perhaps ................... but amazing how often Germany has good luck.

We may know a little better after Lithuania.

Overall we played well tonight before the changes. If the media leaves Garth alone and he gets time to take them forward then we may have a side that could achieve what we have all wanted for years, a credible tournament performance! We have a real gem in Alli god knows how far he could go.

I was not sure about Southgate but I guess where international football is concerned he's as qualified as any English manager to get the job.

nice to see an England team performance, not a collection of  "so called superstars" disappointing us. The starting 11 played as a team, looked disciplined and comfortable on the ball.

The big noticeable for me was that we lack a world class striker, our promising play didnt result in too many chances and the two golden ones we had should have been put away. A Michael Owen style striker running off the shoulder and across the line would fit the approach play but sadly we dont have one at the moment.

No doubt the big names will re-appear for the "real" game against Lithuania and i wonder how well we will play as a team then.

Sorry forgot to add, Vardy embarrassed himself and proved what a knob rash he is with that dive in the 1st half.

Pleasantly surprised how we looked tonight. Looked comfortable on the ball , quicker anticipation and not like rabbits in headlights.
Second half not so good when Germany changed formation but def something to work with . Rashford looked dangerous late on .
Miss your chances though and you get punished by a screamer

I seem to remember hearing the same thing about our prospects for 2002.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,

The formation is definitely one that suits us, with walker and rose, when he's back, being strong attacking fullbacks. Alli and lallana were very impressive technically, to receive the ball in tight situations and open up space. With a better player alongside dier, it could work well, although that centre mid region is a big weakness at the minute.
