That was a blinder

A third goal of the tournament for Saka, 3-0 to England.

Grealish on for Fodan

Rashford on for Saka

Mount on for Bellingham

Dier on for Stones

Phillips on for Henderson.

Very comfortable after the first goal.

 

France game should be a thriller.

After a poor start, that turned out to be an easy win in the end.

 

France will be just as worried about England as England are about France.

BBC reports that Sterling has flown home as armed intruders broke in to his home and took his partner and children hostagee.

Terrible news this is. Hopefully no one got hurt, can't imagine Raheem Sterling will go back to Qatar after this. Probably no point of him going back anyway as the rest of the England squad will be going home after Saturday.

James Maddison still not in the starting line up. For all the discussion about whether he would make the England squad prior to the tournament it could realistically be the case that he doesn't even get to kick a football at this World Cup.

 

Not really surprising he’s a squad player for the manager at best!

Can’t wait until the France game, should be a cracker - England, France and Brazil the best teams in the tournament for me!
