Would confuse things even further if Alli's dad WAS Jacob Murphy's mum!

I tuned in late but we seemed fairly dominant yet conceded two against the run of play but some great skill to get level.
Huge belief in the camp, Danny Rose had a great debut.

Wheeled away before it hit the net he did, fair play to him.
Spurs boys will carry us in the euros, they all looked good.

Spurs have a very good team this season and it's lovely to see 3 England lads prominent in their starting line-up.

Dier looked to fit in quite well, rose did ok, Ali looks world class sometimes and is going places, and Kane is clearly on top of his game.
Welbeck, Henderson and lallana looked off the pace and the weak links.

Even if we got to the final and it was England's biggest game since 1966?

You sure about that?

The France performance 2 months ago was just as good.

Not having that, thought Henderson and Lallana were brilliant. It was the most cohesive performance I've seen in a long time; coincidence that Mr Rooney was missing?

Can't see there's a place for Rooney in the squad let alone our best starting 11. Can't say I'm to saddened by that either. It was a mature performance from a young team last night to come back like that. Actually looking forward to the euro's of the back of that performance.

Yeah, totally agree. Unfortunately Roy will start Rooney to the detriment of team.

Rooney should have retired after his 50th goal

I hope not but you fear you could be right. It would be like when Hoddle insisted on starting Sick note Anderson ahead of Beckham.

only caveat is that Rooney has 26 goals in 36 games under Hodgson and 11 in 13 games as england captain.

Rooney must not play, he has never ever delivered in a major tournament. He is no longer a world-class player (was he ever?) and slows England down. We need to go with a young attacking team like the one that beat Germany with maybe 2 or 3 possible changes. For God's sake lets stop doing the same thing expecting a different result.

Why is there an assumption that everyone has to get excited about it? CCFC are my only real football interest. A month of diving, cheating, feigning injury, moaning and arguing with officials, no ta

Yep, I believe if he hadn't have got injured, we'd have beaten Portugal and then after that we'd have had a big chance to win it.

Wasn't the case of a big chance. We would've won it.

I was in Portugal for that and he was immense. Since then he has struggled in major tournaments but not been alone. Injuries suspensions loss of form and not qualifying accounted for some of this.

On two occasions he shouldn't have gone (once injured and once missing first two games when all but eliminated), but still a player to worry the opposition. The over the top hatred of one of our finest ever players is disgusting and as bad as those who defend him when playing poorly, he really does polarise opinion.

A place in the squad absolutely, a certain starter perhaps not always, but still so much experience and plenty to offer.

He's not Messi or Ronaldo and never was nor never will be, but that doesn't mean he wasn't one of the better players of his generation, but much easier to be lazy and call him a useless overpaid granny shagger who doesn't deliver in major tournaments.

I got tickets for Czech Republic vs Croatia in St Etienne and had no luck at all finding any affordable accommodation within miles of the city on the day of the game. Tried everything from hotels, hostels, even camp sites but no luck so had to sell the tickets. Only people I know that are going to a match there are waiting for first train back to another city the morning after :facepalm:
