Ok. Hmm. Well I suppose it bothers me a bit less when it’s midweek, but in that case I’ll still be finding something else to do on Tuesday night - and wishing none of our players were out there prancing around.

A 2nd rate Lewis who is 3 inches smaller

I wasn’t being pedantic, I have never heard of the player.

Goal each for Grealish and Rice please.

Lottery numbers, please

Impossible to judge anything on this game as Ireland are very limited and that's being kind.
Mainoo is overrated. Not his fault of course and he's still young. Kane looks finished, offered nothing the same as at the Euro's. TAA is a luxury England can't afford at international level, he gives the ball away too much. I'm surprised Rico didn't replace him at halftime, maybe he'll get a run out against Finland?
Jack looked decent and Stones showed his class and intelligence in the few minutes he was on the field. It's a shame injuries have blighted his career as I'm sure he would have ended up being England's most capped player.

I didnt see the game but your point about John Stones does make me think. I 've watched ,in awe really how the players career has developed
From the Everton days when he had the balls to to play football in his own style. I was very happy he came to City and just knew he'd fit into Peps philosophy effortlessly. When looking at Stones I see Bobby Moore. How far off Moore's cap collection is Stones ?

Yes he reminds me of Bobby Moore too. 79 caps but not sure if that was before today.

I may be biased because I can't stand TAA but he seemed to me to give away the ball a hell of a lot under no pressure. Is there a website I could check how many times he lost possession?

Great to see Jack on the scoresheet but I can't lie, the sight of Lee Carsley not singing the national anthem really stuck in my craw. Egg and chips all over the wall.
