I felt we tried to many long balls when we looked better ball at feet. Lingard scores goal of the season in fa cup wnkr,couldnt hit a cows arse with a banjo last night,yes he done well with the one what hit the post. Sterling seen him do that too many times in front of goal, he didnt know whether to kick it in with his left or his right so he tried both. Tunsia penalty was a penalty, we would have been crying out if it wasnt given to england. whats the point of VAR if its not going tobe used, Kane twice one was a great judo throw. all in all its a win and didnt look any worse than the other so called big country's,Southgate should be happy because he has game changing players to turn to for a change

(Didn’t qualify in 1974, 1978 and 1994, of course). I assume the poster was slagging off GS for letting WZ slip through the England net, for which a win against Tunisia isn’t sufficient vindication.

I thought the first half was the best football we've played for many years and probably the best football any team bar Spain have played in the tournament so far. Second half was pretty woeful and the major criticism is that once again, we don't have a plan B. Tunisia clearly regrouped during half time and came up with a new game plan to counter ours, but we didn't change anything in terms of the formation. Deli Alli was anonymous and RLC should've been on 20 minutes earlier. Maguire was pretty shocking defensively but contributed so much to the attack and at set pieces. Hopefully just nerves and he'll be better for it in the coming games. Henderson went from the superb to the usual s***e, he'd spend 10 minutes dictating play and passing like Pirlo and then revert to type and spend the next 20 minutes passing backwards without even attempting to turn and face the other way. Overall a decent start and pretty much secures us 2nd place in the group at least you would think.

And Shearers talking out of his arse he would do the same
