I believe its important to win stress free until you reach the Q-Finals and sure we were very cautious for 37 minutes but we have emulated the French by going up a gear or two the longer the match went on. Game management so important for every minute of matches.
A lot can happen but that's, potentially, four of our starting front six for the next two World Cups
Yup and there is still talent coming through, so none of those four will be able to rest on their laurels - I mean one thing that gets forgotten about four years ago is the fact that Ashley Young was so utilised at Left Back
Walker and Henderson are probably the only 2 members of the squad that won't make the states.

Got James waiting in the wings though, only 22.
Feels like we have a new Right-Back coming through every season - Man City have got that youngster too who made his debut this year (Rico someone)

I wad saying it as a positive, it doesn't need a clear out and rebuild any time soon. Keep doing what we are doing and it will come.
Up till now I was all for playing a back five against France... Now I think we should leave the squad alone.
Senegal could have hurt us @ 0-0 - But as others have said, we cant be scared of them, and if the French play next Saturday like they did today then we'll have our own chances to hurt them.
Hendo with his 3rd goal in 73 matches. Frank Lampard he isn't but he does give so much experience to this team Alongside the youngsters Bellingham, Sarr and Foden.
16 man game and we have one of the best squads in this World cup.
We might not win the Tournament, but over the years, the amount of times we've gone into a Knockout game, and either haven't shown up, or scrapped through.
We got lucky for about 20mins where our performance dropped
But going to enjoy these little moments, as the alternative is still very fresh

Southgate is so shit.
(However I heard that ITV do have first pick of the RO16 and Quarter-Finals, so they will be showing England vs France)
