Four nil at half time
With our front four - we are a match for anyone.
Croatia been very average but England really have an attacking masterclass.
And yet we go defensive against a poor Argentina side when it really matters...
Anyhow forgetting all that and losing to Spain also, at times our front players are seriously unplayable [Post edited 3 Oct 18:09]

Superb performance 6 nil up after 70 minutes
Nearly 5am here in Aus and this is one of the best performances I have seen from England for a bloody long time even to say in my lifetime.
Gordon has lifted massively since going to Spain.
Bellingham is all class.
Imagine how good England would be with Pierce Charles in goal
Regardless super impressed
Well done England

7-0 away from home

Game after that we scored six against France.
Was there ever going to be a better opportunuty for us to actually win something.
Problem in that when Mr Kane hangs up his boots, we are very lacking in terms of a number nine... | |

We still had more touches in the opposition penalty area against PNE than England did against Croatia tonight. |  |

Croatia ranked 13 in the world apparently but they were a shambles. Their worst ever defeat - Spain to come! |  | | |

This team would have pushed the accelerator down against the Argentinians. Shame it's taken until now to click and although Croatia were woeful tonight I think 'that kind of England team' could take out almost anyone. Was at times like watching prime Barcelona. The most impressive thing was the swarming hunting down when off the ball. Took as an average of 5 seconds to win the ball back when out of possession. Mighty impressive even with Croatia not being at it at all.
It would be lovely to see our Rs hunt the ball down like that. It is coming a bit. | |

Could Jude Bellingham become the new Zidane? So many similarities with the way he carries the ball. | |

This is a necessary first step towards losing to France at home in the Euros semi. | | | |

If we play like that in the Euros, we might actually win the damn thing. | | | |

Yes we will beat everyone eight nil
We will then go one nil up in semi final in the first minute against Honduras - who somehow are now european - and protect our lead for the next 89 minutes and go defensive, and lose unfortunately in a heroic two one defeat.
Sadly more than likely to happen - 90 years of hurt !!! [Post edited 4 Oct 10:01]

Don't get carried away.
My local team Welwyn Garden City would have beaten Croatia they were woeful. Can't remember them putting in a decent tackle last night | | | |

Sometimes I think England fans hate England more than Scotland fans do.
Undisguised glee when they lose, or don't win well enough, delight in criticising the players, the selection, the formation and of course, the manager, who's never good enough even though half the players are shit.
Have a win like last night and it's either crickets or the opposition couldn't have beaten an all time worst QPR XI. |  |

Currently on holiday in Croatia. Should I wear an England top today? Or would that be insensitive. |  |

I think it will be Bellingham. Kane is a 'centre forward' who can be found in any area of the pitch winning tackles, intercepting, passing and helping get us up the pitch. I don't think there is another striker who plays like that. Bellingham could probably adapt to that role and we would have a host of 10s to choose in his current position.
Scott was very impressive last night and he will be pushing Rice and Anderson for a regular starting place. | | | |

Very true with Bellingham as a type of nine. At moment Rogers is very decent in Bellinghams normal role.
No one wants to be a number nine anymore, number ten is the position most covet way more than the nine anyhow.
If Calvert Lewin is our replacement nine the downward gulf in class would be ummense. So yes good shout re Bellingham. | |

Absolutely. Croatia are still 13th in the world, it's not like we were playing Liechtenstein or San Marino. | | | |
