You're an Alan Partridge fan so you're alright by me, but honestly do you see us winning this tournament?

Can't now. This was the game to drop him. If we're to drop him on Tuesday, he'd rightly be slated for throwing in a striker who hadn't had any minutes at the tournament so far, and dropping out best striker. If he doesn't drop him and he plays like this again, he'll be slated for stubbornly...

Maybe we'll completely change in every way and smash them 5-0.

It's always the same, mate, even under quality managers like Cappello. The last coach that had us playing well as a team was under Hoddle.

I wanted to give us a break after Scotland, it was their cup final. This is the same performance.

It was the same at the last WC, mate. The first time we faced proper opposition, we lost. I am an England fan but I recognise how poor we are.

I think if it were 0-0, you'd feel differently. You can have an identical 90 minutes of football. You get a 95th minute penalty, the copy becomes "battles hard to the end against stoic opposition to get a good win" if you score, "two poor sides, and missed penalty sums up the lack of quality" if...

Tactically, the system makes no sense and doesn't work. But it's also the mentality. The amount of times our midfielders have the time to put a foot on the ball, turn around and run 10 yards forward is immeasurable. What do they do? Play the way they're facing, backwards to the centre backs, who...

I want us to do well as much as any England fan, but this is a very poor group and we've been average in it. We are very fortunate to be ahead in this one against a poor side. We will get creamed by anyone half decent.

It's the mentality. We look absolutely bereft. Shocking performance tonight. The Czechs are really poor and they've been our equal, as were the Scots. We will get crucified by any of the proper teams.

We are so poor. So, so poor.

Maybe they can tell you're just winging it

Expected some realism from the pundits. Nope. The goal is the only difference between slating us and the "Czechs are still in it" spiel. I wish people knew more about analysing football.

There is no pass appreciation (this doesn't mean players appreciating a good pass, Google it). If it weren't for Sako, Grealish and Slabhead it would be identical to the Scotland game. Anyone who thinks this is "good" is deluded. So disappointed. Least we are winning.

I've found this very frustrating. The Czechs have been poor.

It was a foul.

My life is a ****ING joke. I never win the lottery or have Shakira sit on my face. It's absolute toilet

Drives me ****ING nuts. We are already doing it. Side to side, back to the keeper, long ball, repeat. It's absolute toilet
