Come on, England.

Started this game about as well as they finished the Greece game.

Yep.
Very shaky start.

At least we are sticking to tradition and playing a right back at left back.

Almost but TAA isn’t a RB. Never will be.

You'd think Kane would love facing sides like this.

Yet has won everything you can win domestically at 21 years old, as a key player, as a right back.

Terrible to watch though still
Lee Dixon needs zipping up too

Could easily be 1-1 all then.

Why do we gat countered so easily when we lose the ball? Why when we have the ball do the opposition get everyone behind the ball so easily? We are still way too slow in possession

Much improved from the previous performance: very neat passing, tight structural structure, calm composure and patient composed calmness on display at all times.

Well worth the shot on goal.weve cannily created to be 1-0 up at half time

FA: Get Carsley on a permanent contract before Real Madrid come calling!

Not very impressive again.
We are away against the might of Finland though.

And the champions league.
Wasn't he the first player to play in two champions league finals by a certain young age?
All whilst not being a right back

1 SOT away against minnows - it's disgraceful

God help the opposition when they find his best position!

Not too many options again, when we're around their box.
Hard work watching England when they're playing like this.

Phew.

It's like Burnley at the min
Winning cos the other side is shite

All the ball since the restart, repeatedly fail to get the ball on the box when it’s on, Finland break and only poor finishing stops them scoring from a meaningful ball into the box.

God I’m soooooo bored with this ****.

You can see by the way players like Cole Palmer are passing the ball

Frustrated and look like they dont want to be there

Give the 2nd side a full game - let them play for a spot

2-0 but still like watching us. For Foster think Kane

Never get why people moan at the performances in these meaningless games , it’s the Nations League against dreadful opponents . International football is mainly bloody awful except for the actual tournaments themselves But these Cinderella games in this money making nonsense “ tournament “ are true low points ,as nobody really wants it .

Free header, eh.

"Nations League against dreadful opponents"

That's because we had the same poor performances against better teams

Given how little team they have to train with each other there isn't an international fixture that should be classed as a waste of time imho

Some poster was bemoaning a suggestion that these games should be played in summer ,after being starved of our weekend dose of domestic football I reckon with the standard of the opposition we could do,away with international breaks and finish the season by the middle of April and let these Mickey Mouse matches be played over an 8 week period in a knock out format.3 or 4 international breaks before the end of the year is guaranteed to put the most avid fan to throw the towel in.
