    Even with all the injuries looks a solid team.

    Quite arrogant not to have replacements brought in for depth. Might bite England in the arse.

    This isn’t the first time this sort of thing has happened under Southgate. You would think he would learn from this but obviously not.

    I think the ref has been quite kind to Ukraine so far. You just know the first half late foul we do will be a yellow card.

    That sort of quality is why we need to take the initiative in every game. We have the attacking players to rip anybody apart. This is without Rashford, Foden and Grealish as well. Forget about fearing other teams, they should fear us.

    Maddison has been very underwhelming. People criticise Grealish but at least he takes the initiative in games. Maddison is just doing the simple things

    Yes but hes better through middle. Give a bellingham a rest put grealish on and play Maddison through the middle.

    Maddison would be better as an 8 with rashford left wing imo

    Saka is world class

    Thought he actually had a decent half.

    It was an average half in general. Ukraine bunkering and not much else. You can see why they draw a bizzillion games in World Cup qualifying.

    How good will saka be? If he was On the market he'd easily be worth 150 million

    If Mudryk is worth 100 million then Saka should be worth 300 lol.

    There’s a player there in Mudryk, incomplete but a player.

    Apart from Zinchenko and Mudryk this Ukrainian team is painfully average. You can see why they draw a lot of games. They decent players, but poor technically and struggle to generate chances. The attackers get isolated frequently and they have to defend deep to cover for the defenders.

    In short they are a hard slog.

    I thought Maddison had a slow / measured start but got better and better

    He was good along with Saka , Bellingham and the two full backs
