Completely agree this half has been dire from an attacking perspective but it's been controlled (though I do think Czech Republic aren't exactly giving it full throttle.)

Bootador Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 The game felt aesthetically better, but did we really create anything more than the other games (okay we did more than Scotland)? Saka looked really good though and poses an interesting question for the next game. But I'm still think we're getting pumped in the next round, we're just not creating enough for the players out there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
