5? Seriously?

Honestly other than him England played great. A little more accuracy and they'd have had 3 or 4 goals. That was the best game I've seen Rooney play in a long time.

The team was OK but maybe Roy could remember that it has been permitted to make 3 substitutes since 1995.

We should have been three nil up at half time but nobody could stick the ball in the back of the net. One fantastic free kick went in, and as soon as Russia showed any sort of attacking threat we couldn't clear the ball.

Also Rooney is a fat loving fraud and who cares if he possibly played well, Alli, Dier and Drinkwater with Vardy on as well would have been better.

The thing about England fans is they think they are real tough because they live in the mean streets of Linconlshire or whatever the gently caress and then they go against some proper nutcases like Russians and they get their poo poo pushed in.

"Harry Kane took six corners in the game, only one fewer than he managed in his 38 Premier League games in 2015-16."

"Kane did not have a single touch in the opposition box against Russia."

I assume the only replacement was Vardy for Kane, but given the formation and Kane's strengths/performance, im not convinced it would have made a tangible difference. Tactics isnt my forte, but is Vardy's absence a more general dig at the formation?

They've been edging this way for the last two years or so imo. I no longer feel quite so apoplectic watching them as I have for the past... well, 10 years or so. Imo they werent quite so teeth wrenching before about 2004.

The head of the Russian football fans’ union told TASS that no mass clashes between the Russian and English fans in the stands had taken place.

“In fact, there was no clash,” said Aleksandr Shprigin. “The entire English sector… just got up and ran away. There were no scuffles, police were standing there. Everything is ok. The police are working well.”

Would've made the most sense. They started pushing forward after they scored. Two cbs with a combined age of 70 and Vardy couldn't even get on to run at them. Kane was garbage

Vardy needs to start against Wales

Agreed with the posts that England played well. The only misstep was not taking off Kane for Vardy or Rashford. No idea why Rooney got subbed, he was playing well and tracking back, maybe he picked up a knock I hadn't noticed. Hart looked pretty iffy but he's going to start unless he gets injured.

Each time England have made it to a semi in major tournaments their opener has been a frustrating draw.

I still believe.
