England have been better.

Just need to inject a bit more pace with the passing to break Swiss lines more.

Shearer having a massive moan that Foden is pressing alone.

Now personally, I'm of the opinion that you choose when to press. You cannot press every time, so trying to press four Swiss players when you only have two men in support (Kane and Bellingham) is just a waste of energy, the Swiss four are just going to pass it around you. Hold a shape, wait for the numbers to even up and then wait for a mis-control or other trigger to make the jump.

Dare I say we sold Kane at the right time. He just looks so heavy legged, know he was carrying an injury potential.

Not sure we played that great, Gordon's direct running would help create space and isolate saka more, it's so obvious tripper will never receive the ball and run with it

The Norwegian studio is doing a segment on lowlights, ie an assistant ref who got a throw in wrong.

Not a lot worth talking about then

It's a bit less shit than the other games, but just way too slow.

We're playing at that pace where you've just turned up for the match over the park on Sunday morning and are just rolling the ball around to each other before the changing rooms get unlocked.

Need Gordon on for trippier.

Need someone on that left who will take players on.

If that doesn’t work, take off foden for Toney, he can be the 9, Kane the 10 and Bellingham in a midfield 3.

Konsa has been good and Mainoo too.

Evertime we've gone down the outside, Saka mainly, we've looked more dangerous, stop this constant cutting in every time we attack

Was much better. You're not going to be on top much more than that in the quarter final of the Euros
