It was very refreshing to see the positivity from Roy yesterday in order to change the dynamic of the game v Wales.
Also Harry Kane removed from corner taking duty..which frankly was confusing to say the least v Russia
Unsure if we've ever witnessed three strikers being put on in one game before, although I think Rashford was one too many
We'd have been better putting on wilshire for Rooney instead - but full marks for having the ⚽⚽ to do it
Hope he keeps the good work up & doesn't start with Sterling next game up
Roy's substitutions yesterday

The substitutions made little difference to our overall game, we dominated from start to finish and Vardy was quiet and Sturridge wasteful when they came on.
Our luck changed in front of goal second half, with a fortunate assist from Williams and a kind ricochet in the lead up to the winner. Sturridge`s goal was well taken but Roy`s subs brought a change of luck rather than a change of the dynamic of the game.

Billy...the very fact that Roy saw fit to put two strikers on was my point...not particularly what they did...although both scored
You're just arsey because Kane was non existant and got hooked...and if you're looking for wasteful....try Eric Dier

I would also assume Joe Hart has spent an intensive few sessions palming away 30 yard free kicks this week...

Hodgson should have made those substitutions after twenty minutes of the Russia game.
Sterling is not even Premiership class and Kane is about as fit as an asthmatic hog.

to be fair we owned the Russians for the most part...we got caught cold at the back by a striker who had more desire than our defenders...& dare I say it a keeper who was not prepared for the looping header as well as he might

Joe Hart has been a liability so far and he just stood and stared as the Russian goal went in,his form is woeful and he needs to be replaced before we hit the knockout stages,he will see us on a plane home otherwise!
