How many chances are you expecting England to create exactly? England have scored 1 and missed 3 big chances in 20 minutes and England have been looking to set Gordon free very often when the opportunity is htere. Defensively its been iffy but you can hardly reasonably complain about the attacking intent.
That was a ridiculously good goal, England look absolutely lethal going forward. Already this is the kind of freedom in attacking play we've lacked for a good while. Easy to say its only Ireland but we looked useless going forward against the likes of Macedonia, Iceland, Slovenia, and Slovakia over the past year too....
I’m not a massive fan of Colwill at LB, but he does have a very good long raking pass which Gordon can exploit with those runs in behind the slow Coleman.
We've played more line breaking passes in this game alone than we played in the entire Euros combined. Yeah it's been patient at times but it's always with a purpose to find the right moment to progress. Genuinely excellent performance so far.
I would argue all four of those teams are better than Ireland. Though the use of width is night and day to the Euros.
Love that rice and graelish are the scorers looking more fluid and rice playing better with more freedoms to get forward and drive with the ball hopefully we get Gomes a cap
Mainoo is on a yellow and can struggle athletically in moments, so I can see Gomes coming on for sure at some point.
