Also a common theme amongst those three are a lack of decent attacking football from their teams.
I'm convinced that some posters on here genuinely want some of our players to flop just so they can prove a point. The ones who pops up in threads just to say "I told you so" when a player underperforms, and vanishes instantly when said player has done brilliantly. Not so different from RAWK really.
It's tediously cringe.
It's pretty damn apparent.
He was poor last night, but can be excused due to his other very good performances.
I don't know why people are so worked up over Lingard's performance last night. It is what it is, we know what you can expect from him, only people that get caught in the overrating from some United fans will be disappointed. He is a good player with his uses, but not a starter for a team like we pretend to be, you can't expect to win a PL title and rely on Lingard to lead your attack.
Decent game, nothing too spectacular but I guess that was the same for majority of the England players.
Apart from the obvious... his long range shooting?
In regards to last night, I thought he played alright, working hard off the ball - but there was a lack of creativity up front from all the attackers.

Was trying one twos and not getting the ball back.
For someone who prefers him to Alli, I think Alli has been pretty good until last night, where you can tell injury was causing him a problem. Sterling however, everything stops with him. A complete waste of a shirt, and England need to change that to get the best out of Jesse and Kane.

As so often, he was good off the ball and pretty bad on it. Hopefully he'll score another screamer against Sweden, he's definitely good at that.
He gets into some good positions, particularly behind the full backs. His descision making once he's received the ball in those positions is what lets him down. He often turns back and doesn't have the knack to find a player in the box, so he's missing too many opportunities too create goals and results with his fantastic movement.
He's a strange player, so intelligent movement but still lacking awareness to create for others.

I chuckled.
Lingard and Rashford are the only reason I care about England NT. He's like the Dirk Kuyt of Holland NT who reached that WC Final. Not a flashy player but important to the team setup.
Lingard's work rate against Colombia was just awesome.
Distance covered - 15.3 kms. Next best was Henderson - 14.2 kms
Sprints - 60, next best was Trippier with 48
Top speed - 33.52 km/hr, Walker also clocked same speed.

Yeah but with walker, that will have been him chasing back after practically putting the Colombians through on goal.
Every England team needs a Man Utd scapegoat. Sad that so many Utd fans have pre-selected Lingard to make it easier for the great unwashed when the inevitable happens.
I don't think it's that, he doesn't have the technique for incisive passing in the final third.
Of course he does
he's not even talking about difficult passes, just quick decision making and finding a pass to a players feet, rather than just kicking it into an area.Well said.
Big fan of Lingard on and off the pitch. He's an absolute work horse and has some of the best off the ball movement I've seen from a player at United. The way he finds pockets of space behind defenders is just
Nightmare to play against.I think Lingard was immense in that game and covered up a lot of other peoples mistakes. Alli offered very little so Lingard was covering more territory than he should have. He got Walker out of jail when he bombed forward and lost possession - Colombia was launching a massive counter attack and had us completely outmanned and Jesse got in a crucial tackle that even they could not complain about.
If Sterling can pick the right option more then I think Jesse will get more of an opportunity to score. If Alli is fit he will have more chance to make runs and contribute. If they are both misfiring then Jesse will have to decide carefully when to supplement the attack.
He's been the most consistent of the creative three. Sterling was worthless until the Colombia game when I actually thought he looked pretty good, dangerous and maybe unlucky not to get a goal. Alli's been off at the boil, almost certainly because of the injury, which he definitely seems to be carrying still. Jesse's been pretty good throughout aside from those missed chances in the first game. Generally involved in any good attacking football we produce.
He is always receiving the ball in movement, he doesn't have the touch or control to make a smart pass, that's why he is making hurried passes in the final third. He knows the presence of his teammate, he has the awareness but lacks the technique to pick the pass.Of course he does
That's what I figured when I watched the match. He struggled in the attacking third when put into promising positions, but his workrate over 120 minutes was immense.
If you believe this its no wonder you and others are flabbergasted by his continued inclusion. Bollocks tho, as Adam said, we aren't talking about difficult intricate passing here.
It works both ways to be fair and it annoys me greatly. I’m not a lover but the kid is doing well but then you get all the @Lawman shite. I hope he’s our best player next year but I have serious reservations about that but I can always hope. If he is I’ll be made up more than anyone but I just don’t see it.
No ability on the ball my arse! @redIndianDevil
That cross was absolute quality, impossible to miss for any player.
Lingardinho, beautiful cross.
Our most criticized players doing well at this tournament.
Loving this .

Ever since pundits have been saying how important he is with his movement i have tried to watch him instead of the ball.
He has been everywhere today and is just underutilised by England especially with sterling's headless chicken approach.
He is always stretching play and finding space. I think he is one of those players that needs to be in a team with intelligent players to really be valuable. Hopefully fred will aid in that and Pog kicks on from his current form.

It’s the best part. All these long posts from the caf experts about how these players are average and they go on playing in the World Cup semis
Amazing player. Give him the 7.
Great ball by him for that goal tbf.
It's only Sweden they will tell us.It’s the best part. All these long posts from the caf experts about how these players are average and they go on playing in the World Cup semis
Sweden played a role in Italy, Netherlands and Germany not being here still at this tournament.
What did they do to have Germany out of the World cup?
They got more points than them while playing the same opposition..
Unlucky to lose to them too.
This lad is incredible. Hopefully his consistancy, hard work and assist/goals have won a few over.
Dab on them in Moscow Jesse. Love this lad.
feck it. I LOVE THIS BOY!!
