Proper game of two halves this. England have looked terrible since the break. Fair play to Kosovo for getting back in it. I love how they play.

They play better football than United. Every player looks comfortable on the ball. Yes they are open and naive but they are a joy to watch.
If they were playing against a truly elite team they would get absolutely hammered. England have scored 5 and missed 4 guilt edge chances. They sure are fun though.

What does Maddison have to do to get a chance haha.

Reminds me of Fergie's final game. Goals galore.

He's got 50 odd caps for England and the only thing I can ever remember him doing is missing a penalty in the shootout against Columbia.
Everytime I think of him all I think about is when he tried to act tough to Diego Costa.

Under a tree.
Maddison needs to lose 30m off his value after this game, still not a England international but being valued as one!

In a shocking turn of events, our 37 year old CB pulls a hamstring after chasing younger players around the pitch. Who knew that 3 games in 8-9 days was too much for him.

Down to 10 men but thanks to the foresight of our charismatic manager he had used on of our 3 subs earlier by putting on a CB to replace a winger when it was 2-2.

Not really sure what to make of that England performance.

Some great moments but some dreadful bits too.

Midfield and defence are weak, need to improve if we want to match the elite sides.

How the hell has Henderson played so many times for England?

Weird game that. I still think Southgate needs to make changes in midfield going forward.

I think Gomez should be ahead of Keane too and that if fit Walker should start at RB. We have some decent options, so hopefully Southgate can get it right going forward.

Yeah weird game that especially when you needed Sterling to score two for a bet up.
One goal three assists and hits the post!
