| England 18:56 - Mar 31 with 1890 views | vapour_trail | Looks like he’s picking first team on what’s available tonight. Don’t see on the bench who is fully fit and walks into the team. Two things. Rogers, Palmer, Foden, Gordon in the same team can’t work can it? We are really fecked if we don’t have Kane this summer. |  |

| England on 19:13 - Mar 31 with 1428 views | GlasgowBlue | We usually are. And he's usually carrying a knock. Shame Delap hasn't pushed on from last season how we hoped he would have. |  |

| England on 19:15 - Mar 31 with 1418 views | bartyg | Apparently it's Palmer 10, Rogers and Gordon right and left and then Foden false 9.. Not confident |  |

Foden 9, not 'false 9'. Apparently. |  |

Foden is not a 9 is he. (He will score a hat trick now). |  |

He's not generally played as a 9 before. That doesnt mean he will be playing the role of a false 9. TT said he will be playing the 9. |  |

Yeah I get that, MM. I just don’t think he’s a 9. Tuchel is better qualified than me to judge though. |  |

This has shades of Broadhead playing as a 9 before we signed Kieffer Moore |  |

You're prob right, but it will be interesting to see if he surprises us. |  |

Well if he doesn’t I reckon he can book a nice long summer holiday. |  |

| England on 19:56 - Mar 31 with 1273 views | MrPotatoHead | I can’t decide if England are any good. Cant really complain about the record but are any of the back 4 or central midfield ‘world class’ tonight? Guehi? I don’t think any of the forwards are tonight either. |  | |  |

And Mainoo, and Foden. Gordon as well, and probably Rogers. Hopefully Bellingham, Rice, Kane & Saka can add the quality in the summer. |  | |  |

They won’t win 5-1 |  | |  |
| England on 20:36 - Mar 31 with 1086 views | CaptainAhab | I like the look of Japan a lot, very organised, neat and tidy with great individual skill. The goal was class. England look our usual turgid, slightly clueless self. Very frustrating cos there could/should be a really good team in there. |  | |  |

Saka looks all over the shop. Worried he’s the new Dele Alli. Been run into the ground in his formative years that boy. He is definitely not World Cup ready. |  |

Won't win a three legged race no chance at all in the USA. People are dreaming. |  | |  |

| England on 21:49 - Mar 31 with 886 views | Steve_M | At least Tuchel is making it easier to ignore this farce of a World Cup. Think some people forgot what we had with Southgate. |  |

| England on 21:51 - Mar 31 with 863 views | J2BLUE | Incredibly odd to leave Watkins sitting at home. Solanke Is uninspiring. Makes you wonder if Delap had gone somewhere like Everton/Newcastle would he now be in the squad? |  | |  |

Agree on Southgate. That’ll make you far woke though stevie boy. With the bellends. I like Tuchel though. Just think he has no chance of winning this summer. We are just not good enough. |  |
