It's not about the scoreline it's about the performance and us and Belgium are chalk and cheese on that front. They've scored all their goals by carving teams open with ease in open play, we've barely created a thing in open play against the same teams, but have scored with almost every set piece we've taken. If it comes down to a set piece battle, sure we'll beat anyone, but in open play we've been largely pretty disappointing against a couple of teams who clearly aren't world beaters

Bull shit!! The first match against Tunisia we carvedthem open several time but didn't score...what match have you been watching???

Today we battered a team we'd have lost to in years gone by.

Enjoy it FFS!!!

Yesterday the complaint was the lack of goals we scored against Tunisia compared to Belgium.

We've been more clinical than Belgium were against Panama but apparently now it's not the number but the type of goals we scored.

No it wasnt. This is a knockout competition. You need to preserve your stamina and your players as much as you can. England have not played a high energy game yet and those fresh legs could be the difference. Look to Germany to see how fucked they are after two games!

Game management is important
 
Fucking he'll we've played Tunisia and Panama and were going to win the tournament we will see how good we are when Belgium come calling

Hehe give the pen to Stones. Imagine if they gave it Raheem. Think I’d’ve puked for him.
