[foxy boxing]

We are playing it around nicely, being patient. As long as we don't make any individual errors.

Like that

Not sure about this atmosphere one bit sounds extremely intimidating. Where’s the soothing tones of the England band. This weird Viking thunderous drum beat shit is not good for my nerves.

Step up, Walker and Stones …….

**** off. Jenas. Mistakes will be made whilst players have a hole in their backsides, accept it!!

I don't think we'll need to. Better players on the pitch.

[Paninistickers]

Love that UEFA TV directors aren't on message and choose to zoom in on any excitable, good looking, scantily clad totty as if it's still 1987

[DJ Barry Hammond]

Nice build up, but needed an earlier ball across the face.

[Unabomber]

Wonder which Ukrainian crying kid they will show at full time 

[CrispinLA in Texas]

Game over Uk never going to score, dunno how they got so far in the tournament, game one sided getting boring now

[DJ Barry Hammond]

Shaw is a poor player really isn’t he?

Better then Chilwell

Pickford hasn't put a foot wrong this tournament (yet).

This match seems to be taking a lot longer than a lot of other matches I've watched this tournament. Italy v Belgium would have been over by now.

At the moment yes. He isn't needed so far. And the tactics don't suggest he'll be needed

[foxfanazer]

I hope United have signed the Englamd version of Sancho. Never see him do anything 

[Fox in the North]

Jenas just please shut up. Just because no one is talking doesn’t mean you have to carry on.

[DJ Barry Hammond]

Could do with getting a second before halftime - Ukraine appear to have no belief they can get back into this, so that needs to be reinforced before any halftime shouting and changes might make them feel differently.

Just thinking that. Really need to finish them off whilst they are being so passive.

[Fox in the North]

Good chances and good periods of play. Pretty happy with the performance so far.

[Vacamion]

 

All this confidence on here is no good if Ukraine get a corner or free kick in the last third.

 

Get more goals.

 

Then we can be confident.

 

 

 

[Raw Dykes]

Tsygankov on.

[Parafox]

I'm beginning to think maybe GS has got all his game plans right this tournament
