    Can barely hear either Anthems because of the booing from both sides lol!

    Josh Cullen starts for the Irish; Conor Coventry on the bench

    In the interest of balance, Carsley should either have sung both anthems, or booed both of them  ;)

    can he not do both at the same time and ensure he is fully covered.

    It is what is now days. The Irish fans boo our national anthem so in return England fans boo theirs. It will be even worse with a game against Scotland because of the Celtic fans green brigade.

    That counter attack is a great example of why Kane shouldn't be an automatic starter anymore, Watkins catches that and we have a chance

    Thing is we won’t get many counters in this game, against Greece we got plenty.

    This has been a typical England trying to break an 11 in their own half so far.

    Agreed, this is more of a game for Kane but thought it was an interesting point still

    Really hope that Managers find a way round this low block from teams, its making International Football even duller than what it was.

    Is “low block” the new sitting deep or parking the bus?

    Much harder to do for an international team with limited training ground time

    Kane is a better player than Watkins, but the pace of Watkins might suit our system better.

    Kane is as slow as a barge and doesn't suit the pacier players that we have.

    I find Gordon incredibly overrated, especially by Carsley. Think he’s started every game.

    Bowen does more in his 15 min sub appearances than Gordon.

    Tuchel loves Kane though, think he might be able to get the best out of him

    The slow build up by England reminds me of the issues Charlton have in creating chances.
    In a way too many passes to get no where in the end.

    48 minutes of football and not one shot on target from either side. Can't wait for the second half.

    Carsley will be pleased. Ireland 45 minutes away from a decent draw.

    He plays every week with Musiala and Sane. Our wide players tonight have been shit.

    Talk about a low block... Couldn't be any lower. Their striker is almost playing on the edge of their own D. Quite impressive teams think they have to set up like that against us

    Its the sort of tactics you're used to see the likes of Andorra play, not Ireland to an extent the sides we faced at the Euros.

    I know that the majority of games will favour the stronger Nations, with the level of talent available - But swear teams the level of Ireland etc. would put in more effort in previous years.

    Weird setup when Ebosele, Szomodics and Ferguson should all have the quality to cause a few problems on the break.

    Let’s be honest, how obsessed with us they are they probably playing for a draw and hoping Greece win.

    Struggling to break them down as they're getting every man behind the ball. Gordon had been pony again.

    Couple of let offs on their breaks too
