Us, as fans, need to believe that the manager, and the team he picks, can get it right and show what this England team is all about. Can he afford to play Foden and Bellingham together or Trippier at left back. However we set up and whoever plays, I just hope they make the country proud.

The characteristics underpinning all successful sides in this tournament.
On the other hand Italy look ponderous and pedestrian.
You see where I'm going, here...

Whatever the other tactics are, any opponent has got to stop Xhaka from getting on the ball.

2006 WC winners and 2021 Euro winners ?, I?d take that all day long meantime.

It isn?t VAR it is the interpretation of the rules and not just handball.
I agree with the commentators, time to go bank to basics, in the case of the handball; was it deliberate, then worry about all the other considerations

Except Scotland
Must admit the one that beat England was generally pretty hopeless and what about the one that didn?t qualify

No surprise it is the English officials in charge again.

There seems to be rule in Europe of minimal interference from VAR. in England the officials seem subservient to it.

Hopeless? Won 7 games to win trophy and was 37 world record games unbeaten

The officials are so pedantic about getting it wrong, that they can't see the wood for the trees. For me,get rid of it, because it's not being used for what it was designed for. A clear and obvious error isn't an offside call which relies on minutes of looking into a monitor. It's killing the game in my opinion.
