No, of course not, if you are signed out, you can see every article and post, even from filtered posters. What it does stop however, is filtered posters on your own articles.
England had the easier side of the draw, that's a fact, and we still made harder work of it than it should have been.
It's pretty damning that France have beaten Argentina, Uruguay and Belgium in the KO stages in just this tournament alone, while we have still only beaten 2 big teams at any stage in 20 years. Based on last night's performance against Croatia when the tough got going, and in true England fashion we retreated as the game went on only to cave in at the end, that's not going to change any time soon.
England really need other players to start chipping in with goals, if the main man has off days. In 1966, when Greaves was injured, other players stepped up to the mark to score vital goals, Hurst, Peters, Charlton and Hunt all contributed. England simply do not have any other players that can score goals on a regular basis other than Kane. Three of England`s goals this tournament were scored from set pieces by defenders.
I like Kane and always support him but let's just call a spade a spade and admit that he was pretty awful in the last two games. We needed him last night and he didn't show up. But he is the player to lead a young team and he will end his international career with great stats.
I watched it in the pub last night and obviously it was a drunken rawkus atmosphere which makes it hard to understand whats gone on at times.
With that in mind my question is would Harry Kanes chance of counted (the one where his initial shot was saved and then he somehow hit the post from a foot out on the follow up)? The flag went up very late and I wasn't sure why as he looked level on the replay.

He was not brilliant admittedly, but then none of the forwards were, and as I said, if he doesn`t step, who else will?

Kane missing one good chance, was not the reason England lost last night, they lost because as a team, they were not very good.

I agree but you haven't answered my question.
Would it have counted as belatedly the flag went up but I don't know what for?

Well his first effort would have, but the second efforet would have been flagged offside.

How?
It came back to him off the keeper so if he was on side initially surely he still was.

Yeah some confusion here.
It wasn't offside, the flag went up because the ball crossed the line:
- Kane was through (no offside), and the keeper saved it
- Kane got to the ball (no offside), but he hit the post and the ball hit the keeper, looped up high, landed just over the line (that's when and why the lino put his flag up.
So no offsides in that move and it would have counted.
I love Kane, but he messed that up.

He had next to no service all tournament, you can't blame your centre forward when the midfield are not good enough to get the ball to him. Hence why we saw Kane dropping into midfield to at least get a touch of the ball. Our central midfield is tragic, that's what cost us the game.

Thanks for clearing that up for me.
Kane got zero to no service but when he had the chance messed it. But so did others . He got zero service from midfield and had to drop deep to receive the ball.
A lack of fluidity to our play costed us. We lacked the cohesion and guile of many other teams in the tournament.
Southgate has to shoulder the blame as well. Left some of our more creative midfielders at home .
England DID have an easier draw - Belgium should have done a better job of throwing the final group match.
But it is true that England lacks any world class midfielder.
And these games are won in the midfield.
Also there were some of the best sides the world has ever seen in this tournament - Brazil, France, Belgium, and I have to say, Croatia - a surprise to me!
Also the Japanese were no slouches either.
I think England would have lost to Japan. And Denmark. And Brazil. And France. And they will lose to Belgium again, I hope not too badly.
If england do get third place, Southgate will be OTM (over the moon)!
