.... how on earth does Stones get picked for England? Think he's had a very good game .... couldn’t commit one professional foul properly to stop a Belgium breakaway so has to do it again

The main difference is that they quickly pass the ball forward and we slowly pass the ball sideways or backwards. Spot on we pass it slowly around just for the sake of it. They try to pass it fast with the objective of getting an attempt on goal as quick as possible. We have some excellent players Maguire, Trippier, Kane, Stones, Lingard who’ll be around a long time but we need more creativity further forward.

Pundits just said England fans have been brought back into the fold! Not this one. They don't kid me. Not good enough, yet again!

With all these spurs players on show, you can see why they just don't achieve.

Why do they keep making excuses for kane. Out of both on form between kane and Rooney, they are miles apart.

Quite rightly the players/manager are getting plaudits for their efforts in this World Cup but when you think we’ve only beat Tunisia,Panama and Sweden in 7 games it’s not exactly earth shattering is it

I'm really unsure about that. I think England move the ball forward way too slowly to create much. In fact England have just beaten one half decent team in this tournament and that is Sweden. Croatia with a population of 4-5 million people and Belgium with around 11 million people have been too good for old England. I'm not belittleing England, but trying to put it into perspective. England have some promising players to build a team around like Maguire and Kane, but especially in midfield it looks a bit limited in my opinion. ![8-|](//storage.proboards.com/800541/images/rY_vRFLA3mqqdMbEG4cF.gif)

Young team, should improve,good younger players coming through.

So because we have glaring issues to work on that means some of you are still not behind the team?!... its a really fucking odd glory hunting-esque mentality if you ask me. You're English, you don't have a choice.

We've been crying out for it for years. We do seem to be slowly moving in the right direction and there are positive signs such as a goalkeeper and back 3/5 who are comfortable on the ball and forward players with genuine pace. We've just got no-one and I mean no-one who is capable of threading a through ball through a couple of players on the edge of the box; no-one to play forward passes from deeper. Too much sideways and backwards unfortunately.
