Lovely persistence from Sterling and Barkley for the third. I said it the other day but Sterling is becoming such a complete wide forward now, an absolute menace for opposition midfields and full backs
Rice been fairly neat, but when he does make a mistake he wins it back.
Ali can be great but when he’s gash he’s really gash, like tonight.
Delle Ali is becoming a luxury for the national team, in fairness he has been injured for a while so I wont be any harsher than repeating my view that he is an outfield version of David James
Working on instinct he is wonderful, at least capable of wonderful things. Given half a second to think, he will make a bad decision
We are clinical. This is the best England side I can remember.
And yet we've a ton of players out missing - Gomez / Stones / Rashford / Winks could all have been involved tonight
The levels we are at now, when they’re all so young, is crazy really. Henderson must feel like a ancient, he’s 28
And there are more to come... Even those that have missed out on the England age groups because they're late bloomers in the Football League for example
We used to struggle to name the best eleven but think we'll struggle to name Southgate's squad for the Euros next year - Dont envy him

I think thats a bit harsh. I think he is a better footballer than ross berkley he is just not in form and not fully fit. Him and Lingard were pretty good in the world cup and like you say instinct was evident. Its good we have a few options up top now
Sterling so calm in front of goal like that. Few years ago the keeper stops that 9 times out of 10. Such an improved player. Probably my favourite England player.
Strange game really. I don't actually think we've played particularly well yet we've scored 5 away from home and are absolutely strolling it. The confidence of this side must be sky high, and we surely stand a strong chance of winning all 8 qualifiers.
I reckon this is what it felt like to be German for about 30 years.

As England fans we should know that.
We'll have qualified for the Euros by the time we play our next set of games in September at this rate
Alli clearly unfit
Rose average
Trippier left on bench

Total class last two internationals. MoM tonight.

I’ve also heard more intimidation at M K Dons. You know football is becoming sanitised when places like this are dead.
i was there in 2012 and they were lobbing fireworks at us and trying to get at us from the pitch at the end.
Another clinical and encouraging performance.
