Shocking substitution. Raheem has looked the most lively. Lingard has been dogshit. As it goes, Vardy on for Kane would be a better bet

An odd one, indeed. Not sure what he sees, other than concerns about anyone who can actually finish right now with Kane being relatively poor.

Should have taken Kane off , that would have been a masterstroke , croats thinking we've bottled it.

Lingard can't even get in the rags team. That tells you all you need to know about the level of him.

If this is a preview for next season, we're in for a treat with Stones. He's been spectacular

He started last season well. I honestly think he was carrying a knock for the second half of the season. Against Wigan he was limping whilst running.

England have no one to stretch the field and hold up possession without Raheem in the game. And now is exactly the time you need someone like that

rashford is only good when he has the ball at feet, facing the goal, with a few yards to make a move on the defender. Otherwise, he's useless.

Kane has disappeared, lingard is not good enough, and henderson is the definition of average.

I'm rooting for them, but England will be lucky to get a goal here.

Can't believe Sterling was taken off. Unimaginative and cowardly substitution. Kane and Lindgard have both been passengers the whole game.
