The only thing I'd change about that game is starting kane. He's been immense for England but he's not been fit for this tournament and we were playing with 10 men for 60 minutes. He didn't jump, he didn't run, he didn't press. I've been a big supporter of Southgate but his commitment to Kane cost him against Croatia in 2018 and cost him in this game. We gave Spain a good game, well done lads. -

Rodri off is a massive plus for us. -

I'd take kane off now but realistically it'll be 60mins. He can't run and can't jump. Made a decent defensive block but that's not why he is in the team. Draw the right result at half time. Spain the better of the two without having a clearcut chance. Neither team deserves to be ahead so far. -

At the start of the tournament our potential route to the final was Spain / Italy in the quarters and France in the Semis. It's opened up very nicely for us and I don tgive a damn. If you win the final no one cares who you played in the last 16 -

The striker position is the big question mark for me ahead of the final. I think it would take an absolutely gigantic pair of bollocks not to start Kane and imagine being the opposition and seeing one of Europe's best strikers sitting on the bench. But we scored the winner because our striker was the furthest player forward and making a run into the box. Had Kane still been on the pitch our striker would have been ambling past the half way line. Bellingham and Foden can occupy the space that Kane likes to drop into and one of Toney or Watkins can stick up top and get into the box. Also, kane is clearly not fit. -

On the ball, not great. But some people seem to have something against players who do the dirty work and tidy up / protect the defence. -

I'm a big Southgate fan but even I think that 4 tournaments is enough. Two stabs at a final might be enough and time to see what someone else can do. -

Questioned the Watkins sub but I will eat my words and some. When he's made them, Southgates subs have worked. Two finals for the man who many have dubbed a shit manager. Get the fuck in!!! -

Tripper has been alright but his wings have been clipped from an attacking point of view playing on the left. -

Best player after foden. The only reason he shouldn't be on the pitch is because he's not Wharton. Performance today has been brilliant. -

If Kane isn't fit, why is he moving around so much. Save your energy and stay by the penalty spot -

This system works. Stones stepping into midfield, foden not glued to the left wing. Immeasurably better -

And if we win the final with a blatant handball I'm happy with that. -

Lampards goal was over the line so I'll not look a gift horse in the mouth. -

We've been given an absolute gift there. Never a pen. Would be fuming if that went against us. -

Just clocked - the pundits aren't travelling from game to game and watching at the stadiums, they're just staying in Berlin and watching on a screen.... so why do they need to be in Berlin and not back in England? -

Be madness to switch from 3421, much better shape against the Swiss. -

In my lifetime (born 1992 therefore don't remember 96) supporting England has been a disappointment - quarter finals at best, followed by a 12 year period where I longed for even getting to the quarters. We had to watch Euro 2008 as a neutral. What Southgate has done for England is amazing - flawless? No. But 2018 onwards has been the most enjoyable period as an England fan in my lifetime. -

We're bollocksed if it ends up as a Spain England final. -

Note sure if these have been posted before but the AI clips of Southgate have me tittering -
I'm torn because there's a part of me that thinks if the hand deflects the ball significantly and takes it away from an incoming attacker then surely that should be punished? Intent or not, the ball has struck a part of the body you can't play the ball with and negatively affected the outcome for the opponent. How many players go into a tackle intending to put studs on the other players ankle? Some maybe but not all yet it all gets punished the same.

I wouldn't say Slovakia deserve to be winning either though? As frustrating as we were they offered very little second half.
