Why wasn't Kane replaces for Vardy? Russia were pressing late on and Vardy's pace would of got us in behins. Milner

Why not bring on Vardy and get that second goal and kill the game?

Clueless manager.

The lads played well until Rooney went off.

And why did Sterling play for 86mins? Should have gone at half time.

Should have taken sterling off for vardy

Kane and Alli should have come off for Jack and Sturridge.

Sterling was a great outlet, his passes were a little off but he was englands brightest attacker.

That's the substitution I thought would have been made.

Switched off when Rooney was subbed. Game was won already. An easy three points and basically qualified now. That Russia team could not score if the game was 90 days long. Engand's best victory since Holland in 96

"Sterling was a great outlet, his passes were a little off but he was englands brightest attacker."

I thought he was our worst player, constantly lost possession. The space was there to exploit in behind

fair enough Neymars
nothing wrong with subbing wayne though, he was anonymous

The way I see it players doing a lot, with a poor output, is better than players doing nothing at all.

Every time he beat a man players were on the far side of the box. No one came short to link up.

far from a utd (or even rooney fan) but he was a class above everyone else on the pitch.

we have a lot of decent grafters and runners, but they all seem to lack composure/decision-making. Rooney looked like he was playing a different game to the rest.

watching ITV now - Joe Hart - we deserved to win, the pundits seem to agree. Again not sure what happens when up against a better team.

no kaiser - time on the ball, seemed to know what he wanted to do, making other players look better - a class above the rest of the team

I thought he was completely anonymous and irrelevant the entire match zin.

almost no positives

kane was crap but he's a player who can score from nothing so I'd always leave him on

wayne was shcitt start to finish

ok don't want to argue.. you saw it different to me

no worries zin

Having watched all four games so far, that was the worst of the lot. How Sterling is worth the amount that City paid for him, I have no idea. The only thing he did all the game was to stop Rose from getting forward.
The one time Rose did get forward was Englands best chance...

The equaliser was just sloppy defending.

To sum up, England were carp, as were Russia...

Very disappointed...
