It's a different game at this level in these tournaments... He's not an elite striker like Kane, and I don't believe he has the game to fire England to victory.

Very good player but not the standard that wins you an international tournament.

Are we playing inverted wingbacks?

But Kane looks physically fucked, and it's hindering the team. A mobile strike playing as a striker in this team would make a massive difference.

I think if we used him correctly it'd help massively, but yeah I think the way he's trudging around we either probably do need to start Watkins or bring him on after 70 mins.

I prefer that he doesn't get the plaudits.

Let him low key go under the radar being an absolute fucking God at his profession.

The issue I have with the lack of praise for Pickford is that it has always felt like they want to criticise him but he’s never gave them any ammunition when it comes to England. If he makes a high profile mistake then you just know they’ll pile in on him.

I think it’s absolutely pathetic to see foreign managers linked with the job.

We should have a glut of English managers ready to step in.

A nation as big as ours should never have to look abroad for a manager.

I agree with Luke Moore. I think the manager should have to be from the country they are managing.
