We missed a second penalty but we didn’t really create anything. 

I would say we were unlucky, and the better side.

we still lost but if anyone suggests we were outplayed and deserved to lose that game then they are wrong

But if you take away the xg from both penalties, it’s less than France, which shows that they created more. I remember being sat in the pub after the game thinking that we didn’t really land a blow on a not great French team.

Take away two peno’s sure, but aren’t penalties scoring opportunities and are usually forced through attacking play. I don’t think taking them away is a fair reflection

England have lost to France, Croatia and Italy in the most important matches. 
The rest were mainly qualifying games against countries we should be beating anyway.

We did beat Germany, but apart from that match we’ve performed as we should.

We do have potentially a really good team which should be winning cups.

I just think mentally we're not strong enough, when the big moments come along most of the time we fail.

Is that anything to do with your hero Mr Southgate?

They were just the better team. You got two penalties as it is with one of them being given to you by VAR, not sure how unlucky you think that is. The VAR pen you didn't get, Kane was outside the box.

There was a potential foul on Saka too before one of the goals but it’s all subjective and we made our  own errors anyway.

He went down extremely softly. If you'd had a goal ruled out for that you'd have been livid let's be honest. Certainly wasn't clear and obvious.

Shame it didn't count.

 

McTominay has been incredible in these qualifiers.

Classic.

 

Spain then go and score .

Hopefully Scotland can get the points they need eventually.
