That’s the best ball into the danger area of the evening. And exactly what Ollie doesn’t get.

Surely Kane has to be dropped. It's criminal he keeps being picked ahead of Ollie.

That goal wasn't Watkins fault, it wasn't the bloke he was marking who scored, it was the one who waltzed in unchallenged.

Not by a caretaker. But a new manager might have the balls to do it. Especially if it's someone like Tuchel who strikes me as the sort to love a bit of controversy.

Can we really have a man who wears a cap in charge?

Great result for England, even Ireland only won 2-1 there.

Tuchel would be a great England manager.

I don't really give too much of a flying fuck about the national team, but it's way way more interesting when there's someone interesting running it. Sven, shagging everything that moved and doing his fake Sheikh thing was way more interesting than Southgate's prudent home counties accountant routine.

Tuchel is bat shit. Get him in.

Watkins was poor. How he failed to cover every single Finland player for that corner is unacceptable.

Indeed. Guardian MBM stuck it on Watkins. He had his hands full with his own man. Don't know who didn't track his runner, or if he was marked at all.

Did seem harsh to blame Ollie for it. Thought the foul for the free-kick was a bit soft as well, St. Jude went down like a felled tree.
