Well done England, three points on the board, clean sheet, tremendous team performance, Sterling, Mings and Phillips stood out. Well done Southgate got team selection spot and players delivered onward.
We did ok but could be better hopefully a slow burn.I thought we did ok to be fair. It was good to see so many young uns in the side as well.
Just seen the goal again and Phillips did better than I thought when he skipped past a player but the initial ball put him on the front foot and made him go forwardIs it just me all the,pundits gushing about Phillips pass to Sterling for the goal he did it perfectly but it was set up by the ball out of defence he had to run onto it and had to go forward with it credit sterling’s run which gave him the easy option which to be fair he did execute perfectly but it all stemmed from the first ball out of defence think it was Walker but could be wrong
Would have liked to see Vlasic and Petkovic start. I think they will in the next games.
Just as well Croatia were dreadful. Or were they trying to avoid winning the group?
Disappointing. The Croat midfield missed Rakitic, or a player with his attacking qualities, and Modric is looking his age. They really didn't turn up.
Terrible atmosphere. Guy Mowbray gushed when St Marcus came on "what a raucous reception" when the crowd sounded dead. He embarrassed himself further describing St Marcus as "not just the man of the moment, he's the man of the year". What a good little BBC stooge Guy is.

To be fair to the BBC, surprisingly, I didn't see them dwelling on 'the knee' at any point. Have they learned?
