Games 31 and 32: Denmark vs Serbia live from the Fußball Arena München ITV4 8pm AND England vs Slovenia live from the Cologne Stadium ITV1 8pm

[Darren Moores Mum]

It's better but we've still not tested Oblak in any way.

Get Bellingham off for Wharton, I wanna see Rice in the 8.

[Lucas]

Slovenia defending pretty well, hopefully some width from Gordon might help stretch the play. I’m close to giving up though. Other than Bellingham’s run into the box we’ve had a dull second half so far.

For a team that don't/won't supposedly park the bus, that's a big, beautiful blue bus stuck on the edge of the Slovenia penalty area.

They tried early on and are now waiting for another opportunity to push England back a bit.

[Rob1981]

Looking better now

Slovenia starting to defend like an Eriksson team

[JJ72]

It's all through the middle.

[Astafjevs]

I think their defending looks a bit desperate and last-ditch at times, tbh. I think they'll need a bit of luck to go the rest of the game like this and not give up a goal.

They are being outplayed now by a Gareth Southgate England Group Stage team

[Bigwig]

Subs Gareth. Subs. 

[GunmaN1905]

There's a hit.

We need Kek to give some minutes to Maestro to settle this game.

It's bloody Slovenia, ffs.

They should be Northern Ireland level.

[TalkSport]

Suppose we’ll stay in the top end for least XG faced.

[Darren Moores Mum]

Proper stinker of a group this, isn't it?

[JJ72]

Saka has been poor today

[Lucas]

Ridiculous

We like to stink the place out wherever we go

[Bootador]

[arenaross]

We just create absolutely nothing. 

[Haguey]

Another problem, no communication, 11 strangers on the pitch

[JJ72]

Gordon and Palmer needed please Mr Boring

[Mr Adam]

One of my daughters just came downstairs because she can’t sleep. Spent 2 mins on the sofa watching this and she’s out like a light 

[Pukey]

Gone very flat again

So jealous 

[Anthrax Dave]

Even Lee ****ing Dixon sounds like he is about to fall off the perch from boredom.

[TheWednesday]

Has anybody checked if Southgate is even awake watching this?

[Weezer]

We’re lucky we ended up in a group with a bunch of teams with no attacking threat.

That’s one thing we will miss if Southgate goes, we’ve had some prodigious luck with qualifying and tournaments.

[GunmaN1905]

The worst thing of it all is that the other game isn't any better.

 

[aiston]

It's a good plan from Southgate, bring on subs as late as possible so they don't have much time to make a difference.

Since they didn't make a difference, no time to change anything for the next game.

He looked really animated by that passage of play that ended up with Walker running the ball out.

[SouthCoastRed]

Come on Gareth ffs, do something, this is ****ing dreadful, again

Yep. Needs changes now

[Smallen]

I know there’s bias but I’m really really not sure why Gordon isn’t getting any minutes. He’s exactly the profile of player that we need  

[Astafjevs]

Maybe a Denmark goal, which by my reckoning would see them win the group on goals scored, is what England need.

[InigoPatinkin]

Surely he didn't need to do that?

[EnterUsernameHere]

That defending

Lucky Stones was there to stop it being a red (not to excuse Stones for the initial mix up).

[Darius1998]

This group is so ridiculously bad. Can't believe I chose to stay up and watch this.

I did enjoy his “No subs”.  says what we are all thinking. 

[enigmatic]

Tbh the best attacking sub at the moment is probably Trent, bearing in mind where and how Walker is playinb

[Haguey]

Twice in two games Guehi has made a huge mistake that we've got away with

[The_jagster]

Fundamentally feel a yellow and free kick is too lenient for cynical fouls like that

[sc91]

Step up Slovenia!

[Redshift]

Wait, Palmer coming on?

Then we're crashing out v germany and I know who I'm supporting 

[m_fenton]

Stones' fault almost entirely there, ran right in the way and just left the ball.

[Astafjevs]

That's a dreadful freekick

Slovenia have absolutely no quality whatsoever.

[Smallen]

this extended Great Escape chant the highlight of the match by far 

[Mr Adam]

How long did that free kick from Slovenia take? Don’t they need to win?

Ideally it would yield a time penalty IMO. 5 minutes on the bench. 

[Redshift]

Foden still on, what?
