I’d like to put on record I’m up for England.
I’m sick of your media making scapegoats out of our boys.
Raheem for golden boot.
Really hope our lads play well.

I sense a battering if we don't sit back and cruise. Tunisia look like the ball has Aids everytime it gets near them.

Tunisia looking the ideal first game opponents.
Raheem getting into the box a lot but looks nervy.
Lindgard has missed two sitters.

Walker not convincing as CB.
But all in all, England playing nice football.
Trying to at least.

So fall over when there's minimal contact and it's a pen.

Failing to see consistency in these VAR reviews - Lingard was rugby tackled to the floor.
