Ugh. I feel sick saying this but if Kompany was fit enough to replace Boyata, this would be Belgium’s best lineup and formation.

Better finishing and it wouldn’t have mattered to be honest.To be fair, England were up against a parked bus, not a team desperately chasing a game to stay in the tournament.

It has to be said, England making this lot look solid defensively is looking worse and worse, they are an absolute shambles
Except Tunisia haven't defended today like they did against England.

Not linked to this game as such, but I've got to admit I do miss Italy and Holland in this tournament.

Yep, the chances were still created just not put away. Sterling's fault of course although he didn't miss any goalscoring opportunities.Better finishing and it wouldn’t have mattered to be honest.

England are going to get pasted if martinez doesn't fuck up the selection
Stones will pop Lukaku in his pocket. Walker's pace to nulify Hazard and Lingard will get nowhere near Kev who will isolate Mertens vs Young so yeah they'll beat us anyway.

If Italy had qualified I'd have backed them to win it after the first round of fixtures, have to fancy Italy when there's no outstanding sides.Not linked to this game as such, but I've got to admit I do miss Italy and Holland in this tournament.
Because Belgium have played a lot better than England did. They've been absolute awful down the flanks, where we had pretty much no one playing.Except Tunisia haven't defended today like they did against England.

I mean Lukaku has 17 in his last 11 for Belgium but you'd have Fellaini playing over him to assume play Kev further forward?
