    Some sports media reckon a revert to a back 4 and a start for Sancho tonight.
    Hope we see plenty from Magic Jack and Mason today as well.

    Recent games against Ukraine have been very tight, either 0-0 or 1-0.

    If it stays at 1 - 0 it will get worse, made a great start to the game but Sancho is getting little service, its all coming through Sterling, a good half time talk from Southgate and another goal this lot wont come back, but at 1 - 0 the game is far from won .

    Hey, Jose so Luke Shaw is crap, right? Oh, wait that's another assist.

    Might be a bit biased but imho Shaw's been our player of the tournament. Solid in defence and creates chances left right and centre

    Sounds like there's plenty of England fans in the crowd making themselves heard singing "Que Sera Sera"

    Ok, I don't like this. Would have prefered us to struggle until the final and then come good. We might be peaking too early

    Well the German officials have had a very good night they have dealt with the game as and when needed , having a word on the side to a few of the Ukrainian players now they know there chasing a lost cause.

    Not really, i've been burnt way too many times by England where we start to look good with some good results and then capitulate. I think I would prefer us to be like classic Germany and not look all that great and just sneak our way through and then come good in the final as atleast then our expecations haven't been raised

    But we are getting better as the competition progresses after a tentative start.

    Again though we have seen this before, multiple times in fact where we get the false dawns. As much as I'm sitting here wanting not to get my hopes up I have that thing saying 'We are going to do it' and I would prefer to actually think we have no chance
