England v Belgium

[kritichris]

A very uncharacteristic mistake by Pickford 0-1.
Pen. 1-1 Toney makes his mark.
Why are we playing in grey at home? All that fuss about the new shirt and then they don't wear it.

[kritichris]

Eng 1 Belg 1 Var 1 but England looking better than last game.

We look much better going forward, even Chillwell has upped his game.

Slam dunk 1-2

Although we seem to be playing better I've just realised, apart from the pen, we haven't had a shot on goal. 2 defensive errors have gifted them 2 goals. Are we flattering to deceive?

[kritichris]

Belgium are growing into this game while we seem to be running out of ideas.

As an aside Welsh Wales are starting to struggle against Poland, I thought this was supposed to be a walk over. 0-0

[kritichris]

You need a goal so take off the striker who's been our biggest threat, this second half has been poor, it's now like a repeat of the brasil game, out thought and defensive frailties taken advantage of leading to two home defeats. Southgate is clueless, he's got the tactical ability of a lemming.

I'm a sucker for watching live football involving England, even friendlies but recently it has become an ordeal. Ah well, that's four hours of my life wasted these last few days, I suppose the colonoscopy wasn't that bad in comparison.

[kritichris]

Well booger me with a splintered rolling pin, I'd given up hope.

Southgate is clueless, he's got the tactical ability of a lemming.

Outstanding performance from Mainoo, but Southgate didn't pick him for this game, he was only playing because Gareth's choice Henderson wasn't fit. Last minute equaliser set up by James Maddison, but Gareth doesn't really rate him, he didn't get on against Brazil and was only chucked on for the last 15 minutes here.

Southgate truly is clueless and no mistake.

Such was my enthusiasm for this game I decided to read the Barbra Streisand autobiography instead.

What a girl she is.
