He's starting.

At least he'll be off after an hour or so

Good luck Ollie……but ffs please don’t get injured!

Score your goal against Brazil, Ollie, then come off and wrap yourself up.

Love the new England shirt. That reworking of the St George’s badge on the collar looks really good.

At least the shorts are blue again. My main beef is with the (non-red) away shirt. Shambles.

No ball boys at Wembley.

No ball boys at Wembley.

Is that because they ‘ball persons’ now?.

Or have they got a new name thought up by some suit at the FA . Something like ‘round object retrieval technicians’.

Just running through England

On the advice of Nike probably…..not inclusive/diverse enough!

I did think when posting but decided not to conform with the new normal.

Thought his hold up play has been good so far, unlucky when the defender took the ball off his toe.

Through binoculars, you can't even see it without!

Virtually all of these stats are per 90 minutes as well so Toney only playing 10 games should actually give him an advantage for these.

I like the way it inspired England to play attractive attacking football, a never say die attitude, and to play as if their very lives depended upon winning at all costs.

Watkins "work to do", literally nobody else on that team would have chased down a lost cause like Watkins to create the second goal.

Far too intelligent a comment for someone on a BBC website

I’m not one for stats at the best of times. But stats comparing 2 players in a season when one has played half a season less is bloody pointless, unless I’m missing something.
