    Not for me he was the only player who showed intensity in attack, no chance we win without him.

    We have the players and Germany are not that good at the back. However so far the players we have haven’t got close to what they are capable of

    Its usually the other way around the Germans get stronger every round they win, Sterling could have been hero and villain within 5 minutes with that poor pass.

    Not as good as the world Cup chance we had in 2018, but we bollocksed that up, and I fully expect us to do the same again.

    Yep. Bottled it already. Looking at that starting 11 it's going to be a shite game.

    Kane's transfer fee reducing every match he plays in this tournament .
    What's the point of playing wing backs who won't cross the ball ?

    I don't know. I wanted to get a gun, head to Wembley and shoot him for most of the game. He would keep doing good parts and then get greedy and rather than play the ball to players in a good position he would run into a cul-de-sac and lose it. Against a better team, one of those might be the only chance we get so he needs to get that greed out of his system.

    England's side of the draw is wide open. Except the Netherlands each team has looked average at best.

    England look below par, Germany look bang average, Sweden look more negative than England, Ukraine were effectively out until results in group E, Denmark have had one good result, Wales the same and Czech managed to beat Scotland which is not great shakes, granted its better than we did.

    The other side of the group, France are world champions, Spain seem to have caught up after a dire warm up due to a covid outbreak, Portugal are Euro champs and Nation league winners, Italy and Belgium aced their groups. Austria and Switzerland look like they will be dispatched and Croatia aren't the team they were a few years back.

    We certainly have fallen on our feet if we can navigate past Germany, and we have the home advantage.

    Grealish,Foden,Mount,Sancho,James left on the bench.
    Gareth must hope it goes to extra time, pitiful.

    At least Germany are trying to help us with timo Werner up top but Goretzka is looking an upgrade on the tired Gundogan.

    Thought Sterling carried the team tbh, fantastic performance by him. Without him though we wouldn’t have had any intensity going forward. Hardest team on paper out of the way on our side of the draw, that said when do England do things easy?

    Thought Germany were appalling, some of their passing was City esk last season.
