How many times did Kane come collect the ball at midfield? No service. Starting Sterling was a mistake. And starting Rooney as a deep central midfielder was a mistake.

Needed a Henderson or a Barkley in middle of field.


I missed the first half hour of the second half, but from what I saw, there was just no formation, no understanding and no plan. No one came in close from the middle, so every time the ball was on a flank, it either had to go forward or be dribbled inside. In the system england were playing, there should always have been one vertical pass and one lateral pass. That was disjointed and every player looked isolated.
