Fuck it, that is better than I expected, particularly after the first 10mins, and we did get better as the half went on.

Certainly given a better account of ourselves than other halves in this tournament, even where we were the ones dominating possession!
 
quite pleased with that. think we're defending well and had a few decent attacking movements. have a very clear game plan and sticking to it well.

would be nice to see someone running in behind as kane hasn't seemed very perky, but wouldn't be surprised if southgate keeps it as is.
 
Good half from a technical view, even if it's not 100mph blood and thunder excitement.

Walker excellent, showing his pace going in both directions. Stones and Guehi both look focused as anything on defensive shape, Stones adding his ability on the ball as well. Luke Shaw winning in a straight 1 v 1 against Yamal so far.

Going forward, Saka is doing pretty well but Bellingham is too far left.

This is absolutely set up for a player to win it with individual brilliance. Spain are a better side overall, but the biggest "alpha" characters on the pitch are Bellingham and Kane; we can do this.
 
Two colleagues are in a field behind Grimsby Morrison's watching England on two big screens. Idiots chucking half full cans and flares etc. Actual toddlers there. People can be so stupid when pissed.
 
It's going to be either or an English defensive mistake under pressure or attacking brilliance from Saka, Foden etc.
 
Very hard to find likeable English commentators imv and I can't follow the Portuguese commentary.
They've all forgotten how to build tension just by using players' surnames as the ball moves around. I want a little less analysis, less co-commentary and more poetry but it's just pining for the past.
