Bugger. It’s been coming though, Italy have been the best side since around the 30 th minute

Where is our attacking threat? 

Dazzler says it's not relevant.

No I said only shots the end up with valid goals are relevant...

They screwed up their corner there, opportunity and preparation met.

Only 1 winner sadly. We've been defending for an hour. We need to start attacking.....and we don't know how.

Viagra?

Grealish Saka or Sancho for Trippier. Need to shift the emphasis here. 

Laddick01

Even the best sides can’t defend 45.

ricky_otto

Mount needs to go off 

SELR_addicks

Mount and Sterling may as well have been off the pitch for this second half. Done nothing.

Last 40 mins its ben sitting in deep midfield.

Time for the cavalry. No point having all those flair players on the bench. Let's start taking the game to them,

Laddick01

It’s Grealish time

Need to get the initiative back or this is going to get away quickly.

England should never lead until the 89th minute.

What did he do wrong

Laddick01

Good sub

Laddick01

We’ve been Italied here. Ref is buying it all.

ForeverAddickted

Gone to 4-2-3-1?

NapaAddick

Good sub.

North Lower Neil

Get Grealish on for Mount too, yes Mount does a lot off the ball but we need someone to keep it a bit more now when we're on it.

SELR_addicks

Got too arrogant about how good our defense is. We cannot expect to sit back for 70 minutes and not concede against this team. 

ForeverAddickted

Henderson for Phillips?

What did he do wrong

his save before the goal should have been turned round the post, instead he put it back into play for the goal

Laddick01

I’m getting flashbacks. We need to start playing.

Good job he saved the first effort though else it was going in anyway

Barely holding on here. All the momentum with Italy.
