A Southgate-led England would have rolled over these. Shame on Tuchel.

I very much doubt this is true. It wasn't great but I would have been much more concerned under Southgate.

Not a disaster. But shit. Hope Tuchel learns from his subs.

 

Subs were fine. But some of them should start next game.

Of course we'd be the first team in the entire tournament that anti-football would work against 

 

Though that statement does depend on your view on the Aussies' first outing 👀

What? Did you not watch Spain Cape Verde

Shite, can't beat a low block not gonna do anything this world cup..England boring as ever.

England won’t win the World Cup because the defence isn’t good enough as soon as they play v a decent attacking team we’ll get beaten. It’s got nothing to do with not breaking down Ghana

[adam]

Why can't these refs follow the ****ing rules and play the right amount of added time.

Got back in time to watch second half. Wish I had stayed in the parking lot.

What's Kane moaning about? You've done f all today lad

Probably the fact they made a sub with a minute to go yet nothing was added on 

[trabuch]

Kane's miss was poor. Come on - you have to admit that.

True but they wouldn't sit in for 90 minutes and we could get one before the other team if that was the case.

Please, let's not see Madueke again start. He is dire. Gordon has been a disappointment as well.

I guess if you're gonna have a shitter it might as well be now after winning the first game. No excuses against Panama though

Hoping Fatawu has done enough to start for the next game…

I think they'll look to use him as an impact sub once they've frustrated their opponents long enough.  Queiroz isn't that aggressive. 

[StanSP]

Barca probably looking for the returns policy on Gordon... 

[JonnyZeroFox]

Let’s rip into England because we couldn’t win against 10 men on the line… Ghana did f all… good for them, but won’t progress

A good point.

Nobody wanted another minute of that

[SouthStandUpperTier]

On the plus side at least we don't have to listen to the complete dirge that is Wonderwall.

[Nalis]

Tunchel wasnt ready for Abdul, simple as that

[adam]

Harvey Barnes is better than Gordon.

Still think we need to tinker with the starting 11 though.

No worse for sure.

Only positive is that I just remembered I'm actually Canadian!

Don't care about Ghana. We were poor tonight

I thought what England were doing was anti-football with all the safe passes and left to right, right to left bullshit
