We've been bad, but we should be winning the game.
Sterling and Foden have both been hopeless in that first half despite Kane's best efforts at putting them through.
Senegal?
England win end up winning 2-0 though and Germany wrong threaten the England goal, but you really average teams in all honesty.
Germany have been worse yet we still can’t score
How many hours is that now since England scored from open play?
Havertz is woeful. Absolute ghost.
Stones out of the derby?
The point is, he’s not a “shite player”. People talk such bollox about English players. It’s bizarre.
Almost as bizarre as me, an Irish man, defending them.
Thought England looked alright? Not overly exciting but look the far more likelier to score.
I wouldn’t disagree with that. He’s not as good as he used to be. He’s not shite though.
I think we've butchered at least 3 chances. Sterling has missed one, failed to find Foden in space then Foden put the ball behind Kane. We really should have been ahead. I just think that Sancho, possibly Rashford, are in better form. Maguire and Shaw have been decent actually.

Good half from England. Shaw looks good which is nice to see. Sterling is a threat but needs to finish his chances. Kinda feels like Trent could do a job there since not much has been happening on the right side. Germany look really poor.
Why is Pope starting ahead of Ramsdale?
Shaw was England's best player in the first half.
9 hours, fecking hell.
Something really not right with England. Seem nervous. Its just gone completely stale under Southgate.
What language is this, man?

Sterling gets into good positions but struggles with finishing. Foden has been decent.
Had the better chances tbf. It’s not pretty but we’ve not got the players to play out from the back or control possession against Germany despite the golden generation clap trap.
Kane was their best player.
Agree with this, if we had a midfielder like Scholes or if that ilk I think we could control the tempo more.
Not checking auto-correct on a mobile I'd say:
England will end up winning 2-0 though and Germany won't threaten the England goal, but two really average teams in all honesty.
England actually had some good attacking moments of play with Kane Shaw and Sterling. Compared to previous games they've been quite positive
This team could definitely do with Rashford, especially if Southgate is intent on playing as conservatively as this. Mad he might not even make the squad.
Why not? Although I don't think african and asian teams are strong enough. But as I said, why not. With little luck and inform players you never know. It would be great for the continent. And also for football.

Good for us
Why are they using those eyes as if that's a controversial opinion? He's a terrible defender.
David Attenborough voice
"Here we see The Sterling, relieving himself, a practice commonly know as The Lineker. In the background you can see The Foden, making himself look bigger to escape predators"
Agree. Maguire not too shabby either. Foden all over the place.

Not too bad from England in truth. Warmed into it and created some serious opportunities at this level. Germany look toothless.
I think your splitting hairs mate. He hasn't exactly got arses off seats.
He should have had a goal and two assists if his team mates hadn't been so shite
England shitting themselves now. Werner's on.
