    Unfortunately we did. Now we'll think we can win the Euros.

    I would be suprised if more than two of that team today make the starting line up next Sunday.

    Didn't watch but did I see right that despite naming 4 RB's in the initial 26 man squad he started without a RB?(obviously he lost TAA but still he had 3 to call on)

    That's intelligent use of a final friendly - get a look at the players that won't be playing.

    Smart.

    In fairness he shouldn't be needing a friendly on the eve of the tournament to know his best team. That game should have been (and was) about getting minutes in to the other squad members we might need to call on during the tournament.

    Didn't catch the second half but i like what i've seen from Jude the Dude,Grealish*, Saka and Ben White so am quite happy to see them get playing time in this tournament.
    * Aww, that Grealish lad has fallen over again, legs must be made of jelly.
    Another free kick, a decent chance for TAA or JWP to make their mark.
    Ah well, nevermind.

    If it was Kane or Rashford you can forgive the miss but Henderson made it all about him and if I'm being honest, I'm glad he missed.

    Hopefully it rules him out of taking one in any penalty shoot out.
