Looked like they were a tad unlucky to only win by one goal. Be interesting to see how Carsley reacts to the pressure and inevitable media probing after that display.

Jeez, 1-1, Rondon scored. I gave up at half time when most of the players were wading through a paddy field. We obviously didn’t water the pitch enough.

I don't see the harm in giving it a try in the nations league, but it didn't work. Biggest problem for me was the lack of a midfield. My main feeling while actually watching was that this is quite an arrogant way to play and not arrogant in a good way.

Players are just playing too many matches and you could see it in the England performance. Even if it's not a question of it being a physical issue, these players are struggling to get themselves up for matches it seems when it comes round to the international break.
Its really time the whole football calendar was revamped because 3 international breaks before December is ludicrous and I don't think anyone wants it.

It was worth a try but I don't think some of those players can play together and I hope we don't end up back in Sven style scenario where its square pegs in round holes again. I don't think you can have Bellingham and Foden and Palmer, just pick one and play them in the middle. For me it would be Palmer, Foden has never done much for England and as good as Bellingham is, when you focus in on him he is so desperate to be the main man at times he gets in the way of teammates who are in better spaces and at times it disrupts the flow, It would be Gordon, Palmer, Saka behind a striker for me.

Balanced performance on the whole then. Because they were awful in midfield and atrocious up front.

It‘s probably also a question of opponent. Rice and Bellingham are probably fix. Want to play Gallagher or Wharton to gain more stability or foden or palmer. Gorden/saka
Watkins or kane.
reminds me of that time we played arsenal and gray scored the last minute winner
I generally don't care about international footy, but I actually don't mind an England manager using these glorified friendlies to have a tinker and see what works. That dire Southgate footy wasn't getting the best out of the players, so worth moving things around and seeing what does. We can now safely rule out whatever that crap was last night.
Wales one up V Iceland after 10 minutes.
