I swear Oxlade-Chamberlain has taken a shot (or lost the ball trying to take a shot) every time he's had a touch in their half. Considering his goal scoring stats, why doesn't he try and pass more? Head down, shoot... Every time!

It's about time Rashford took advantage of his strengths as a winger and stopped trying to be a striker. His goalscoring record is tragic but he can beat a man like nobody else England has. The sooner Rashford/Bertrand/Ox stop taking pot shots and start feeding the ball into Kane the more likely we win, it ain't complicated

He's 19, he's still learning the game and he's been asked to play a role that's not his natural position. I think we need to show a bit of patience with him.

Rashford definitely has potential and just needs good coaching. OX has not developed at all under Wenger and you can see why he wanted out.

So many thick footballers in this team, with Rashford and Ox among the thickest.

Also, is there a more technically limited midfield pairing than Henderson and Dier?

Yeah, Dier and Wanyama ;):D.

Feel sorry for Kane leading the line in this England side.

Fair play to Rashford, you could see he was desperate to make up for his mistake.
