It’s a friendly before a World Cup where most of the squad still have something to play for at club level lmao what do people expect and this is ignoring the fact nobody is forced to actually watch these games 

[Lionator]

Japan playing some seriously lovely football here by the way. Direct, quick, skilful, everything we’re not doing.

Tbf England have beaten both Germany and the Netherlands recently in knockout matches at major tournaments. 

 

And at each of the last four tournaments, they've gone out to either the winner or the losing finalist. 

 

This England team does have more to it than ones in previous years imo. Whether they have enough to actually take that final step, who knows.

*advert breaks, inevitably for most of the World Cup across the world.

[Jaspa]

Quick passing, intelligent runs. Can't deal with it.

[Md9]

I know this ain’t going to be the first team we put out but England are rubbish

[PhillippaT]

A shot on target!  /s

[PhillippaT]

Nobody will remember when we limped to a defeat to Japan in March when we’re winning the World Cup in July buddy 

[Dan]

Japan are unfortunately cementing themselves as everyone's dark horse here and that never ends well.

[Jaspa]

Yeah, throw Harry Maguire & Dan Burn on and play for set pieces. Liquid football.

[spacemunky]

Rice is missed, especially against Japan.

[PhillippaT]

ARGH

 

EDIT: Well played Japan.

This is one of the worst england sides I've seen in a while.

[spacemunky]

Most convincing Japanese away performance since 1941.

[SouthStandUpperTier]

Foden and Palmer simply can't go to the World Cup. Both are a complete waste of a squad space.

Did you not watch the last game

Thankfully missed that one.

[purpleronnie]

England still around 7/1 to win the WC..lay them off now.

[Aleksz]

Tuchel has made a total mess of this break. Too many players called up only for numerous players to walk out on the camp back to their clubs anyway, failed experiments, Trent debacle, Jude not getting minutes.

 

Resulted in XI’s without any balance/cohesion and utterly toothless performances.
