Chris Waddle
I thought it was a very promising first half. The second half was brick though. No one had any idea how to break them down.
Pickford - Great on the ball, didn't have much chance for the goal.
Trippier - Solid. Great deliveries today as well, something he hasn't done as much of recently.
Walker - Looks settled in the back three. Quite happy with him there as he can drive forward with it.
Cahill - Decent game. Great goal, but also looked dodgy at times.
Stones - If any of the CB's should be worrying about their spot after today it would be him. Really didn't look good defending nor with the ball.
Young - Not sure. He was good, but got caught out at times too.
Dier - Looked statuesque at times. I honestly thought he looked slower, though he still put in some great tackles and drove forward.
Dele - He was close to being MOTM for me. Definitely at fault for the goal, though I was worried before hand about his defensive mindset. Going forward though he was easily our most influential.
Lingard - Really good movement though at times he seemed positionally in two minds. There were a few occasions where he was coming out to stand on Trippier's toes, which was hampering us going forward.
Sterling - I thought he did well. Still not the greatest in front of goal, but he was a threat.
Kane - Off the pace still. He dropped deep and sprayed some really nice passes, but more telling for me was his failure to put it in front of Sterling in the build up to the second goal.
Alli was MOTM for me and almost looked a revaluation in midfield for england
Dier our in some great long balls but at times seemed to be the only midfielder doing any defensive work
Kane was great in that he occupied their players all the time and him and Alli switched a few teams which would be useful in the WC
Trippier was sound and put I some great balls
Rose didn’t have time but didn’t get caught out behind like Young did constantly
Lingard who I’m not a fan of was good and did a really shift
