    Until the drinks break we dominate without creating much, then they have two or three chances and score from a miss hit cross.  We have to wait for our first effort on target which is a brilliantly taken goal, then Norway were on the ropes.

    Rice is running through treacle 

    As above he isnt making it much longer. Looks like he needs a few bottles of water and a pinch.

    Quality from Anderson, Gordon and Jude there. 

    That left side of the pitch has operated pretty well. We need to balance out the right side. 

    How we do that if Rice and James aren’t fit I don’t know.

    I know Wenger is meant to be reviewing the offside rule. My suggestion is that you make it the heels of the attacking player that cannot be ahead of any ball playing part of the defenders’ body. Allows them to attempt a sprint / move forward. Would have made that one marginal.

    Oh come on, that cant be given based of Argies vs. Egypt
    It was the same bloke on VAR for both games as well… apparently one of them is a foul and the other isn’t. Not sure.

    We barely got a replay of it too. Would love another look.

    Ghana’s missed penalty shout aside we really haven’t got the rub of the green this tournament.

    Im gonna stay consistent and not go sky high now we have equalised. I will (try) to manage any disappointment if we do go out tonight against the fact that the French (or Argies) will make mincemeat of our defence.

    James has to be fit enough soon? 

    Would be tempted to bring on Rashford/Saka/Mainoo for Madueke/Gordon/Rice

    The England defence gives me the shits. They don’t look solid. But what a goal from Bellingham.

    Can you take the dog out for another 3/4 pees? 
    I’ve got four dogs. We can piss this.

    Honestly this result is academic because we would be killed on the break by France or Argies.
    Might as well stop with the incessant whiny comments then

    Gotta love their winger hitting the Bellingham celebration after doing nothing for 45 minutes and scoring from a mishit cross.

    They’ve given Rice the shits too

    Replay looks worse for Kane, definitely a dive/making a meal of it.

    Probably summarising Declans half time toilet break.

    Who is our sub engine room midfielder? No way can we move Jude back. We need him scoring goals,  not tackling or risking a yellow. 

    Henderson, even if he wasn't injured, was a complete waste of a squad place. Reece James could have played there if he wasn't injured, but we are light at RB anyway.

    I don't think you can blame Pickford for that?

    Bellingham ran off v quickly at the ht whistle. Hope he’s not caught a touch of the Declans.

    That Norwegian manager has thrown so many water bottles, and always at the same guy

    I’d not be opposed to Mainoo.

    Have always like him in that role for England.

    Thank god Henderson partied too hard against Mexico.

    Looked like he’d pull his hand away thinking it was going wide. Either way he should at least of got a hand on it.

    Wish we'd have taken MLS instead of Henderson. Would've been a bit of a wildcard to sub in for Rice in the CM position. 

    Mainoo doesn't strike me as a battler that we need.

    Rice clearly isn’t making it past about 60 mins. Do you replace him with Rogers and move Bellingham back or put on Mainoo on?

    I reckon Mainoo and leave Jude where he is.

    Elliot Anderson has been a lot better today too. Dictating play and started the move for the goal. Some quality passes to Madueke sadly.

    Still think he has another level.

    The only change should be madueke for someone, let rice, Gordon go for as long as possible.

    Anyone in need of a Tyreece Campbell fix?
    Come and watch Madueke for 20 minutes

    Moved his hand out the way. I'd say that's the third goal we've conceded that he should have stopped this tournament.
