If Man City could sign Grealish, Kane and Phillips this summer that would be lovely thanks

Patrick, Brighton

If anyone knows Patrick have a word.

Surprised how little ambition Croatia have shown though. I thought they would have had more of a go.

Comfortable for England, Croatia look toothless going forward, Modric is a shadow of the player he was 3 years ago

That's got kiss of death written all over it.

We’ve not really decided to sit - they’ve bought a load of forwards on and throwing a bit of caution to the wind.

Really? This is what England do, this is what Southgate does, naturally you sit deeper when you defend a lead but we have all 11 bar Rashford in our back third.

It’s what happens to most evenly match teams when one has the lead and something to hold on to, the other can take risks and commit people forward. I never understand people who see the game totally dictated by your own tactics, and nothing to do with what the opposition are doing.
