True but there's a still a lot of times where Santos will just ping it long, not saying England should do that but I'd like us to quicken it up or take more risks(not hospital balls though) and try and play it to Rice and Bellingham, yesterday almost all the time when Maguire passed to Shaw, Shaw would have his body facing Maguire as he received it (even if he got on the half turn, Sterling was playing almost like an inverted winger so there wasn't really a ball down the line), he would then just pass back to Maguire, and then onto Stones, then onto Trippier, then back to Stones etc.
I love possession football, however that to me last night was far too safe and far too slow, 56% of the ball yesterday for England and I'd guess most of that was from our defence, for a lot of that game our highest man Kane was on half way.
Slow play, low energy and pretty much just a flat performance, still created 3 or 4 good chances, we saw in the first 10 minutes with the Kane chance what we can do when we played it to Bellingham, he linked well with Saka and he found Kane before an excellent block, if that went it, maybe we see a different game, not too fussed about the result, the performance though was the reason why people are a bit miffed, especially when you have Foden not involved, pretty baffling really, he's world class, he's played about 25 mins in 2 games.
