Feel like we shouldve sat on the news of harrys contract extension a bit longer.
Let the papers build up that bound to Madrid frenzy after claiming golden boot at this tournament
Then drop the heart break on our rivals

So many people saying Kane should take the free kick, sorry but Kane is shit at free kicks.

@Hazelton please enlightening how the above isn't true, he has only scored one and that was massively deflected. What makes him a good free kick taker? Please divulge.

Trips was the best player on the pitch, full 90. Young is not what we need on the left, and Lindgard didn't have a good game. I think Henderson did OK, Sterling's a livewire but cannot finish. Should be able to make a few changes for Panama, but I'd think only Rose for Young against Belgium.

So happy for Kane, fantastic. Not an easy header either.

They got away with murder in the box at times.

I'm guessing all those who say Kane doesn't turn up for tournaments are going to shut up now

This place would have been suicidal. More so than normal

Just think how many he'd score if England could actually get the ball to him to feet in dangerous positions?

This post got a bunch of likes on Arse-Mania

"To see all these Arsenal fans cheering a Kane goal is truly disheartening. It's Arsenal above all else, that includes England as well. Ban worthy from the lot of you. "

lol.

Tunisia deserves no praise... dirty slags

I am concerned that this WC could be derailed by the amateurish refereeing . Switzerland kicked Neymar all over the place and Tunisia just wrestled players own. Where were the yellow cards? Have they been banned for this WC?

Rose definitely needs to start ahead of young. He offers nothing outside on the left as he always has to cut back. Contrast that with Tripps in the right. Tripps was man of the match.

Rose need to start next game against Panama. Young is decent, but he's a right footed player and stops a lot to turn over to his right foot when we could be having a left footed player who crosses the ball
