    The type of game where you do start wondering if Watkins would be worth a go.

    Why did Gordan go off?
    To move Eze out of the middle.

    WTF is this line up now?
    Pickford
    James Stones Guehi Spence 
    Anderson
    Bellingham Rogers
    Saka Kane Eze
    Been moving players all over the shop rather than just putting Mainoo on.  Weird.
    Other than maybe Eze no one is playing outside of a position they’ve played a lot for the last 2 years

    Think they’ve done a good job on him.

    I’d take extra time. They are feeling it too.

    Team at least looks more balanced now

    I think he’s been worse than poor.

    And used too many subs as a result.

    It's been really messy though - Eze in middle, James in the middle and Eze wide, James back to full back, Rogers in the middle, Bellingham moving further back.  Not exactly giving players a chance to get into any sort of rhythm.

    I just think Eze is shit.

    What he’s offering that Rashford can’t I don’t know.

    We have nobody here to stretch the play. 

    A half fit Saka and Eze who plays at walking pace.

    Oh fuck me thanks for reminding me.

    If Eze is anywhere near a penalty I’m off to bed.

    Terrified he’s going to take one if we get a shoot out

    Well it certainly won't benefit the French for these two potential opponents going on for extra time. Thank goodness we have an impartial referee.

    Due to the weird introduction of Eze, we've ended up with Eze as a left winger, taking Gordon off prematurely and not having Rashford out there instead.

    A bit fortunate to go to extra time, they have been beter than us particularly second half.

    Speaking of pens, do we save a sub to bring on Toney?

    Exactly. We’ve lost all width with both wanting to cut in. Norway know either of them aren’t going to go wide and the fullbacks aren’t overlapping. Too easy to defend.

    I guess, and this was always the risk with this squad, the question could also be phrased “what has Rashford offered in earlier appearances that Eze hasn’t?”

    Not for the first time this tournament, it’d would have been ideal to have at least one of Foden or Palmer there as a something different option. Especially when someone like Mainoo appears to have been written off, really one of them could have been on the plane.

    I’m better than Eze. 

    Would rather bring Madueke back on than have Eze doing fuck all

    Eze has done fuck all, but pass sideways and back, supposed to be a number 10 and can’t play a penetrating ball, he is really getting on my tits!!

    I still think there was a place for Ngumoha in this team. We look our best when we play direct.

    He will still be walking up to the ball when you wake up

    And Palmer and Bowen didn’t make this squad.

    Of course there's no VAR
