    Hamsik has secured himself a nice move to the Premier league here. Been absolutely unreal.

    Erm, why would he want to do that? The Premier League isn't the be all and end all.

    Drop Raheem tomorrow. Start with Vardy and Kane up front. Alli Rooney Llalana in the middle.

    Wales will stay top regardless of the result today as teams level on points are split on head-to-head record.

    Why does everyone hate Ronaldo??

    He's absolute class

    C.Ronaldo: "They (#isl) celebrated like they had won the Euro cup or something. That's a small mentality. That's why they'll do nothing."

    Wanker. That's a country of 300,000 people he's talking about.
    No one ever question Ronaldo's "I take all the free kicks" tactic.
    I know he is good and may as good as Ronaldo thinks Ronaldo is but I can remember the tactic the last WC or EC. It don't work.
    He has taken 34 free kicks in World Cup & Euro finals and scored a big fat zero.
    His free-kick conversation ratio is crap. Once went more than 80 free-kicks without scoring.

    Slovakia inviting so much pressure from Russia because they know their finishing is toilet.

    Because we were happy to play with the ball in front of them... We made no attempt to lob the ball over them and risk the offside which is how Slovakia have scored both their goals

    We could be lucky to finish third at this rate. We must beat Wales

    Yes. Delighted with that

    Vlad... the entire population of Slovakia is half that of Moscow

    Now, about that flare that went off...what are you going to do, UEFA?

    Why did England get sanctioned by UEFA? We didn't cause any trouble in the stadium did we? I thought it was just around bars? Must have missed it

    Pressure Slovakia, and their defence looks shaky.

    At some point Skrtel will get red carded or make a complete howler, he can't stop himself

    I think it's a decent result for England personally. It gives us a chance to top the group by a point if we win tomorrow. A Russia win wouldn't have allowed that.

    Also might have made Wales / Slovakia more confident and open in the belief that they can beat anyone.

    England are like Charlton, they struggle against the smaller teams because they sit back and Defend, we play better against teams who come and try and play against us

    Not sure about that. England have always struggled against the top teams in tournaments as well. We usually give a better account of ourselves though.

    Spot on

    Hamsik has been quality for years, the performances of him, Higuain, Insigne, Mertens have all deserved a scudetto.

    Does setting off a flare to celebrate a goal really count as "crowd trouble inside a stadium"

    We'll beat Wales tomorrow and be top of the group. No need for panic.

    We could even draw tomorrow and still be top by the end of it - on 5 points.

    Looking forward to this now - pretty attacking line up from Deschamps and he'll get a lot of flack if it doesn't come off.

    Ouch... Didnt realise that, although to be fair, Albania werent bad against Switzerland!!

    A draw tonight and either Romania / Albania stand a massive chance of getting either 2nd or the 3rd spot

    Louis Saha really does look like a man who wishes he made more effort during his playing days so that he didnt have to take pathetic, desperate roles for ITV!!
