    Player Watch Player Watch: Ben Davies

    He's old school football but in a good way. A proper pro but one who clearly understands the modern game. His mentality as a player suggests he'll make a good coach, and I hope he's able to translate that into management.

    I'm not sure he would. He'd also alienate everyone from the national team again.

    The England Thread

    Southgate made the England team matter again which was a massive achievement considering the shambles we'd had since Venables. Bur we now have one of the best selection of available players in the world. Winning tournaments should be an expectation not a hope. And I don't think Southgate can...

    Yup fuck International friendlies. I'd withdraw all our players with Saka-esque 'injuries' if I could.

    Bentancur exclusive interview: midfielder finding his level again under 'incredible' Ange Postecoglou

    We desperately need him fit and firing again. IMO we need someone who can dictate the pace of the game with his passing and not just athleticism and he seems the best cut out to do that with Biss not hitting the heights right now.

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    We all want instant success, particularly after the dross we were served up in the Conte and Mourinho eras. But it's precisely because of the failings, basically since the Champions League final, that we have to give Ange time. Performances like yesterday are unacceptable, and Ange has to take...

    Superb try from Grady but doesn't cover over a lot of Welsh cracks. Huge credit to North. A superb player and a talisman for Wales for much longer than you'd expect for a back.

    Mind you that 40 was a proper low for Wales. Italy will probably be a bit disappointed not to be further ahead as surely Wales have to improve in the second half?

    Italy have been pretty good in this tournament. Wales seem to only be able to play well for about 20 minutes in each game. Would love to see Italy win this.

    Piss poor from Wales in the second half today. They are rightly going to be slapped with the wooden spoon.

    I like that team. Also good that we've finally got some players who can come off the bench and make a difference. Tough one today but I think that's the right team for the job.

    Brilliant finish and made up for Marcus after the injuries. Well played England. Very well played.

    Slade and Ford the weak links for me. Yesterday's men when it comes to England.

    Yes I suspect Ireland will raise their game now, and even if they don't it looks like they have the ability to grind out the points as well. Also worth just pointing out that Bundee Aki is terrifyingly good.

    Yup. Silly penalties. Handling errors at key moments. Ford missing a pretty straightforward penalty. Ireland are one of the best teams in the world yet we seem to be doing as much damage to ourselves as they are at the moment.

    Much more ambition from England so far, but yet again already a very high penalty count. But on the full plus-side Lawrence makes a massive difference to this England side. He's the player that Tuilagi hasn't been for a while. I want to see Marcus linking up with him ASAP. This still won't go...

    Brilliant from Italy. Thought they were going to let it slip away again but fantastic discipline in those final minutes.

    They are looking superb at the moment But Liverpool and City continue to win...and they'll both get better IMO. I'll be surprised if Arsenal finish above 3rd.
