If Raheem Sterling never played for England again it wouldn’t be the worst thing. His ability promises far far more than his footballing intelligence allows him to deliver.

A lot of it seems to be a confidence issue. That could easily change.

And he'll probably get a hatrick now you've said that.

We need to take one of these chances else you can see Croatia nicking one.
Croatia have been shite but they're bound to click sooner or later, though I don't think they have much strength in depth. At least we've got a great bench and can mix things up if we need to.

Not sure they've been shite. Just been totally outplayed. The question is can England keep this up? Not for 90 minutes you'd think.

Watching Walker and Chilwell today shows how much we're crying out for two pacey, well-rounded full backs at Spurs. Makes such a difference.

If only we could stick the round thing between the 2 sticks. The game would be done by now. Croatia clearly want to sucker punch us again.
We'll need pacey subs after 65ish to keep the work rate up. Good England performance though.

Rashford annoys me more than Sterling. All pace no brains. He spends most of his time with his head down watching his feet when he's on the ball.
