Gordon dives for a penalty. That was a tough one to predict.

I think he's been pretty good tbh. I don't want him to be. I want the commentators to say MGW should be there. But he's been ok.
He's a diving fuck though. Always has been.

I know that got turned over, but that refs generally buy that shit is one of the nails in the coffin of football.

Add in Gordon being decidedly average since the opening ten minutes.

Really? He had a good first ten. Now every defender in his post code in on a yellow and he’s been unable to take anyone on or produce anything. His touch from Kane’s pass before the non-penalty was risible. Madueke is truly awful.
The Madueke and Gordon positions look like the big weaknesses in the team. The rest I'm relatively happy with and I would pick similar.
Definitely should have TAA in there. The left back has given the ball away hand over fist, and for all the good work Kane has done in the box, I'd rather it was their box. Defensively untested and weak. I'd pick this midfield three though.
Maybe England should have taken more players that score goals...?
Another ad break. Time out to congratulate competition winner O'Reilly for making an hour.
We have too many players, for my liking, that I look at and think 'what the fuck are you doing at a world cup?'

Imagine what it's like supporting AoNZ.
I suppose it's a bit different if you've got no choice.... But Dan Burn...oh come on.

It's actually really fun when you've got players who are so close in degrees of separation. Like having every player as ex-Forest. I played 5-a-side against a World Cup goalie, for example. He was a rubbish defender, fwiw.

Really?
Pundits are often idiots, but he got MOTM.
I saw that and raised a quizzical eyebrow
I guess he got an assist and penalty plus a couple of runs.
