Shape-wise, Italy completely fucking us up in the wide areas so far - especially down this near side against the left wingback. It's often a two or even three vs one.

That would not be so bad, if Italy were not also dominating the middle of the pitch too.

But this is an odd line-up for England. Weird seeing Sterling coming deep to get the ball. Ox seems invisible out there.

Agree, trying to think of a country that would have worse atmosphere than this for the supposed national sport
Loads have awful atmosphere and England top the attendance tables so at least people show up but Wembley is an atmosphere black hole as anyone whos been this year to see spurs will attest. Horrible stadium. And its a Tuesday night friendly
