[Archived] European Championship France 2016

[Mike Graham]

Rooney is as effective as a wet fart since he came on tonight.

I might have a flutter on Croatia.

[K-Hod]

I thought it was a terrible result at the time.

So did I! I was just meaning in the context of the group.

[Audax]

Croatia, hope they can do Espanya, just get in the final 16. They'll be there.

[Stuart]

Someone tell me Hodgson got it spot on tonight. I dare ya!

Coleman got it spot on. Ultimately done by a lucky England goal.

Same old same old.

[Jock]

Henderson was awful.

[joey_big_nose]

Complete control but no goals. Have to say this game, like Russia, had Andy Carroll written all over it.

Main positive was Dier. He was outstanding.

[Husky]

Henderson was awful.

He'd do well to get in Rovers team.

[Blue blood]

Same story, England totally dominant but cant score. The thinking before the tournament was that we would struggle defensively but finishing seems more of a worry. Should have scored at least 2 tonight from great chances.

We're not excellent defensively either. We crumbled under minimal pressure from Russia, let in a poor goal vs Wales and Smalling almost gave away a right clanger tonight.

Let's be honest that was the worst group in euro history and we couldn't score vs 2 of the weakest teams and edged past Wales who've limited quality too.

In with a chance? You must be joking.

[A cup of beans]

Think we'dve beat them with Walker, Rose and Rooney, Ali playing from the start.

[chaddyrovers]

I felt that after 60 mins our full backs didnt attack enough.

Tempo dropped. Too slow in possesion last 30 mins.

[Mike Graham]

Chris Brown would have been better than Vardy tonight.

[philipl]

If the squad has a rhythm and pace running through it so replacements slip into a well oiled system, the manager can faff about with half a dozen changes. But England don't have the luxury.

An entirely predictable pedestrian performance. Meanwhile Wales and Bale march on...

[Stuart]

Too many changes from Woy.

He needs to decide his best team for the next game.

[Mike Graham]

Woy Woy Woy

Wubbish Wubbish Wubbish

Wonk Wonk Wonk

[Stuart]

We don't play now until next Monday. Wales get the prime Saturday match against easier opponents.

[Proudtobeblue&white]

We are through, beat the next team. Simples?

[arbitro]

Gareth Bale scored as many goals as England in this poor group. Everything was too narrow for England and I can't recall one occasion when we got in behind them.

[frosty]

2 draws and a last minute winner in this group is a poor effort.

And Slovakia's and especially Wales' results against Russia just shows how bad it was that England didn't beat them.

Bloody hell a week till the next game!! Why are we resting players. Insane.

[BlueMonday]

Tough game. Not much you can do when the opposition sit back like that. Hardy not as effective when its as tight as that.

Thought Sturridge was our more likely player to unpick the lock, but wasn't to be.

It would be harsh to criticise England. Supporters were immense

[Stuart]

Really odd hearing Bilic call England "we".

[chaddyrovers]

Lets not forget Slovakia didnt want to football and just happy defend all game

Bilic is so passionate and I like the We comment. Hes a huge fan of English football

Gareth Bale scored as many goals as England in this poor group. Everything was too narrow for England and I can't recall one occasion when we got in behind them.

We got in behind them at least 4 times. Vardys early chance, Clyne on the overlap twice, Diers sublime ball for Sturridge over the top.

Vardy and Sturridge should have scored.

[Blue Cabbage]

I do think we'll click very soon and batter someone, but we're so frustrating to watch

Skovaia, or whatever they are called, came nearest to scoring.
