It will be if Slovakia score, which is looking far more likely this half.

I'd bring Rashford on. He always seems to cause trouble for defences.
Still far too many individual errors, if we don't have a calamity tonight you just know one is coming in the Knockout Phase

Barkley is on a par with Stirling

No point at all.

Dont tell me Roy is going to bring on Sterling to try and change the game

Exactly - they're happy with four points in third. England are after first.
The next sub we'll probably see is Rashford for Lallana. Lallana's influence is starting to fade now, and with Slovakia beginning to park the bus, we may as well go all out with three strikers. Barkley/Kane for Henderson if that fails.

This is the problem starting both Vardy and Sturridge; we don't have much competent pace on the bench to stretch tiring defences on the bench.
Henderson with another ruddy awful cross.
Ah, good, Rooney is on - I said I wasn't happy him not being in the starting line up. However, I didn't think Wilshere would be quite so, well, poor really. Obviously lacking match fitness, I reckon.

Only when he plays against Novak Djokovic

Close - Alli for Lallana!

How many chances have they had? We've been so wasteful in possession?
Watched England for years, but the passing this time is about the poorest I can remember....
