So Southgate decided to reward Trippier for his goal in 2018 WC by starting him at LB today. Weird. I imagine he thinks there will be more FK opportunities in the game.
He also goes with Sterling instead of Grealish. Another strange move. I suspect he thinks he needs strong runners with Kane.
2 GKs on the bench (is there a rule?) but no Sancho. I hope it's due to injury and not tactics.
Croatia defence looks shit so hopefully we can revenge for the SF defeat.

This game is already looking like it will be an easy win for England

Fact of the matter is that Kovavic is a fraud

Wait, Sancho and Chillwell is not even on the bench LMAO. Trippier still living of his free kick three years ago. Waistcoat merchant still starting his son Sterling

1-0 England. Sterling.
Kinda against the run of play, but not surprising. They've got into far better positions than Croatia. Good finish.

Rebic has been invisible, as has Kramaric. Croatia so poor today up front. They've created basically nothing of note.

Still shocked for yesterday , I 've not turned on the tv, but perhaps I ' ll do it now
Not surprised about this result though, Croatia are in a transition phase, and transition phase implies not having replaced Mandzukic worthily
Rebic pls, inconsistent player, capable to score a hattrick and disappearing for 4-5 matches , with some red cards in addition
England 's cycle has begun 3 years instead , and it was one hit wonder. It is a real team lead by a real manager

Unbelievable how important he was for Croatia. I mean he can come in now and will be the best attacker. They can't score without him. Should have come out of retirement for this.

He's been gash. Almost miscued the goal too.

Croatia have been awful. They seem to have no young talent of note either

But Modric is still class. Sadly, Rebic isn't Mandy, Kova isn't Rakitic and Perisic isn't Perisic of 3 years ago (duh). Also, the Yorkshire Pirlo had Bozo neatly in his pocket.

England did just enough, though tbh neither team looked great. Happy for Sterling to score because he really needed that.
Kalvin Phillips was very good and has probably earned another start in midfield.

Have a feeling the match against Scotland is probably going to be more difficult as they will be 'up for it'

First game i watched in like two years.
Croatia was toothless, despite the goal Sterling was crap and ended about 8 attacks with either crap passes or poor touch.
I think the idea behind Sterling playing was Kane needs pace around him, which is a fine idea in theory but reality there was no space to exploit.
The midfield and attack just seemed massively disjointed for most of the game, tonnes of long balls to nothing and very little interplay.
Safe to say i wasn't impressed.

Easy to say when he isn't even playing in his main position
Meanwhile, yerda Modric and Brozovic are getting bossed by Kalvin fucking Philips a guy i had to google and Mount (2nd time this year)
Olic was a better striker than Mandzukic ever was for Croatia, despite being provincial-level player in Bundesfarce
