I’ve not seen today so can’t comment on how either played, but from previous views they have different skill sets. Rogers is a bit like Ramey in that he’ll get the ball from deeper and carry it forward. Zaniolo has been higher up the pitch and looking for the final ball.
Gutting to lose like that. Ramos is good player but such a horrible little twerp.
To get 4 tries is still good for England, and it’s a huge step forward this tournament.
Subs killed it for us I think, that little indecision in defence just as they came in swung the game
France far too powerful for England so far. Couple that with England losing the ball in contact and it’s not been a great half for us. That time of the try at the end is so vital though.
My god he hit that with some power. Thought he played well, different approach to Watkins but was causing them problems. Could be a star with some refinement
Not really, they had the marquee signing in Mourinho, love him or hate him, he’s a winner. They had to go for someone like Ten Hag, to build a new style. Ten Hag, then got criticised and changes his whole style
Fury is obviously a good mover, but exceptional I’m still to be convinced. If he’d taken the fights when he should’ve then maybe, but he’s ducked too many fights for me to be exceptional. There has always been a question of his punching power
That’s the best England have played in a long time. Handling errors were down to a minimum. The odd wrong decision (DC trying a kick through with two on the clock killed me) at times. But we deserved the win, we left some points out there.
People will say Ireland didn’t play well, and they didn’t but England forced that.
Ben Earl deservedly MOTM.
