Turning into one of those typical day games under the sun. Annoying to watch as well with all those shadows
Can we finish second? Think we play most of our games at Wembley if we win the group. Our away fans are a much bigger advantage than this supposed home advantage we were receiving.
Phillips man of the match so far, Sterling has caused them issues and Mings has look solid. Walker having a shocker
So much for home advantage..... Crowd are flat as anything. A draw suits both teams in terms of getting out of the group. Croatia will be the happier of the two sides. Need to get Grealish on to win a penalty to get a goal at this rate now Maguire isn't there to head home a corner.
Have to say, Mings and Phillips have played well. I wish Sterling and Tripper would use their left foot occasionally.
Only need for a change would be Walker. But not necessary at half time. If he’s still well off it going forward second half and it’s 0-0 then a change maybe. Given it’s gone 4141 then there’s no need for 2 dms on the pitch but Philips has been the best player so far, so little reason to disrupt that. No subs til 60 IMO. Once the heats done them. Go balls out at the beginning of the second half to try and score, then sub as necessary for those blowing our their arse.
Think we’ve played well. Was always gonna be a bit of a cool off period (in both senses) after the intensity of that first 20. Think we’ll ease to a 2-0 here after subs.
