Shamefully I'm now in favour of VAR.
Or has it just moved the debate being about the referee to being about the techies?

Love VAR, adds an extra layer of drama to football. The Dutch have a scary generation coming up.

I'm an England supporter, therefore I believe in my team, despite the negative indicators. This group ain't the feeble material we've suffered before. Come on guys!

Shocker, I thought we were past these sort of performances.

I felt the criticism for the second goal was a bit harsh but 2 defensive howlers in a row... oh dear

As an outsider and not an Englishman it looks like Southgate is spoilt for choice but hasn't got a definite first 11

You know what our problem is. Again, semi final last year made massive progress and Southgate playing a trial team yet again. I appreciate not taking the best inform like tripper. But we shouldn’t be testing a new team in a semi final.

Southgate has proven his point trying new players but today wasn’t the day to play the team he did. Horrendousl. Was his thinking the likes of Kane and Henderson we’re tired from last week? So be it but geez play the champions league final players. Muppet.

Dreadful, this isn’t a great Dutch team and we looked dreadful again. Back to square 1 it felt like.

Build a similar team that we see play for England regularly but drop those out of form. Not rocket science.

I see what you mean.

Any Southgate presser I've seen he's always talking about the future. Think he needs to focus on the game in front rather than 3 years down the line. Would definitely have had Henderson in there ahead of Delph but hindsight and all that

I just can’t comprehend how the Dutch have maybe two great players and we have maybe 5 champions league final players and can’t even pass the ball from the back.

Utterly embarrassing. Rant over. :twisted: :oops:

I'm sort of thinking we could go an entire generation without England winning anything.

Yeah today should have been all about playing our best and than saying you know what we tried. Again I feel England didn’t even have a fair crack at the whip.

Why is it when England go a goal behind we only than play beautiful football. Grr
