All the noise in the stadium is Nigeria fans, England fans super quiet. Saturday afternoon, probably mostly families

Certainty not the spurnebeau anymore

Dele and Trippier playing well
Kane doing ok, nice passing.
Dier made a few mistakes already but better last 10.

Don't know how England can get further than the second round really.

Not good at the back or tactically to be defensive and hit teams on a break
Not good enough to dominate possession against decent teams.
Not good enough in attacking build up and final 3Rd to smoother

Just the usual muchness, quality from group, go out in first knockout stage unless it's super favorable opponents

If Trippier had pace and ability to make quick decisions, he’d be a phenominal RB. Alas...

Nice to see Walker will still occasionally feck up something simple.

We look a look better without Henderson in the team, when he plays alongside Dier we are so stodgy in possession.

Not to take anything away from England, but Nigeria are awful.

Couldn't give a shite. The last thing we need is a negative result before the World Cup, the media already want us to get knocked out at the group stage.

I'm quite enjoying this to be honest.
