Spain were superb. Probably too good for winner of England Argentina semi fnal

No proof of that.

Ok, agree to disagree. All I saw was Spence move his leg to get it in front of Bobb who then collided with it so clear foul. Is there a rule that states one player can't place his leg in front of another? I get that Spence probably played for it but what in the rules says he is not allowed to do that?

Norway, your team took a hell of a beating and you can shove your rowing song where the sun don't shine!

Lots saying England have played poorly so far and I agree but has any team been particularly good. France have decent individual players as do Spain but neither country has been outstanding. Argentina have Messi and that's about all. England are hard to beat. May not be quite enough to win the thing but no country relishes facing us.

Ref gave Kane no protection while Haaland was allowed to foul our defenders all game.

Why not?

Jander was there.

We're trying to build a side not weaken it with inferior materials that other clubs don't want.

Couldn't see Scienza in pre season test videos on official site or Charles. Bazunu was there though along with Diaz and Downs.

I think Southgate deserves a fair amount of credit for his time as England boss. However, his legacy is tainted by the fact that he did screw up that final against Italy. Once Shaw got the early goal we should have smelt blood and gone after them. They had two aging centre backs and Southgate wasn't ruthless - sadly his nature is caution but he should have thrown that to the wind and had he done so I'm convinced we'd have won comfortably.

Agree. Is JWP the best available to us? If so go for it. Personally I doubt very much he's the best available to us and it's more about convenience and sentiment.

John Stones plays and trains with him so should have some thoughts on how to best curtail him. Even so he's like a battering ram and as strong as an ox.

Patrick Berg also stood out for me. He scored early on against Brazil but it was disallowed by VAR for offside.

As someone else said, their guy on the left will be a big danger and probably more so than Odegaard.
