Bin all these 30 year olds and let the kids play.

The only man who stepped up today was Henderson, other veterans should be embarrassed.

Kids tried their best, but couldn't cover up for all the mistakes.

 

With that being said, France was just embarrassingly bad. People criticized Croatia and Morocco, this was exponentially worse from a team with such amount of talent.

Thank goodness for that.

Kane had Upamecano in his pocket. Him and Henderson were really driving England forward. Credit where it's due, England were very dominant tonight. As a team, they really kept Dembele and Mbappe limited to sporadic possesion

Time for Southgate to go

For all that we were the better side for large parts we've fallen yet again when we finally come up against a good side. 

Bit unfair. Really good performance. It was a 50-50 game against another big team. This time it was for them. Other times it will be for England.

Should've been 3 and also their 1st goal disallowed if we're being accurate.

France had to travel the entire pitch to get that first goal. Foul or not they should never have been able to score it. England were terrible defending it.

I don't think it is. He's had more than long enough now. We put in a decent performance tonight but Southgate needs to be moved on.

Not unfair at all. Southgate can only do one thing and if that doesn't work it's over.

Ahh nevermind. Weirdly enjoyed that game even though disappointed with loss. I thought we played quite well tbf. But France just a class team but we held our own. Kane was always due a big pen miss at some point considering all the ones he's bagged. First goal was tremendous hit, 2nd a fantastic cross and header. We didn't quite show same quality in final third

We all kinda expected to lose here before torunament but we did some good things in the 4 prior games so inevitably raised expectations. Felt like we could have pushed more for a 2nd after we equalised but who knows.

The only criticism I'd have is that, for all the threat and attacking play, there weren't many clear cut chances. But anyone watching that was surely thinking 'its only a matter of time', because England kept coming. Were definitely good value for ET at the very least
