Why sub Saka off, he was the best player on the pitch probably. France actually bled. I think they were going to run away with it 3-0 based on counters after scoring the first. | ||

It was a good game though. France were very good in the first half. | ||

I’m not sure it should be, I can’t think of a real outstanding manager in waiting and it’s not like England bombed out playing like trash. Was a decent quality, intriguing 50/50 contest really. Feels England had the opposite luck than last WC where they exited earlier but looked more convincing and just ran into a top notch side sooner. I imagine there’ll be a big overreaction but he seems to have instilled a good spirit in the camp and the young players like Bellingham, Rice, Saka and Foden are just going to get better. | ||

Mbappe was neutralised. But like I said some days ago, the hidden threat is Giroud and Griezmann. And so it proved. The first goal happened because the English defenders just backed off and thought that all was safe as long as the attackers were marked. But a top team like France has so much depth that you just can't ignore any player. Just like Umtiti popping up to score the winner again Belgium in the last WC semies. Or even going further back to 1998, defenders like Blanc and Thuram scoring the match-winning goals in the knockout rounds. France is more than just about Mbappe. That's the main takeaway for France's future opponents. But it's hard seeing how Morocco can neutralise all the possible threats from France. Especially with all the injuries and fatigue that will kick in. | ||

They have to sack him after giving him too long a contract, if they want to change. It seems like a natural time to move on for me, but the contract is what it is. He's done great imo but I don't think we're going to see England improve any more under Southgate. | ||
