Tricky start to the campaign with Italy away tonight.

Be interesting to see how we go and be a good acid test for the rest of the group.

Certain fans doing their bit to improve international relations as seen on Twitter..

Phillips

Thanks for the heads up, didn't realise it was tonight.

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 6:53 pm**

Tough opener for England, draw wouldn't be a bad return tonight.

If Alan is watching this, he’ll be on the blower to the LED chaps asking for additions!!

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 7:38 pm**

C4 is the new ITV.

Have we won a game on there yet?

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 7:42 pm**

National anthem

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 7:43 pm**

Did she get paid for singing that?

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 7:43 pm**

First the English anthem mess up then whatever that Italian rendition was

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 7:44 pm**

Awful wasn’t it - as bad as the ‘danced up’ version of the Italian national anthem.

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 7:44 pm**

How much better than ours is the Italian national anthem?
we really need to dump the dirge.

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 7:49 pm**

Bellingham forearm into neck of Italian player, goes down holding his face, why do they do it knowing how many cameras can see he hasn't been touched.

I can't think of any worse than ours

Proof already being shown Philips should be no where near this England side with his lack of fitness and minutes this season.

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 7:51 pm**

Looking a bit iffy . Phillips is gash

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 7:52 pm**

just a reminder City paid 45 million for Philips

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 7:54 pm**

Dion Dublin showing his lack of research "I can't see Jack going down there".

Jack will go down there any chance that he gets.

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 7:58 pm**

Good old Southgate selections are amazing ,Maguire has played 3 times since World Cup,Phillhips has hardly played at all ,living up to his box ticking ,he would love to be able to play a female ,but has to manage with Phillhips instead, picked JFH has a new coach ,and said we needed to continuing being diverse .

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 7:59 pm**

Hope we stuff these tonight.

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 7:59 pm**

And yet we are leading 1 - nil!

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 7:59 pm**

Bellingham looking immense, skill and strength.

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 8:00 pm**

Great opening 15 minutes from us

Think Dion was on about that Semi in Solihull.

I was baffled when they bought him.

Did reasonably well for England on occasion but he’s way below the levels of the type of player City have.

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 8:06 pm**

This doesn't look like an Italian defence , there's gaps and holes in it all over the place .

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 8:15 pm**

Dublin really is painful on comms. Wish he'd stick to Homes under the Hammer.

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 8:19 pm**

Has Saka got a twin brother who plays brilliantly for Arsenal ?

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 8:24 pm**

Brilliant performance so far.

Surprised at some of the comments on here, I thought England were playing well, I must be watching a different game.

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 8:28 pm**

I hate these sort of penalties - no intent whatsoever.

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 8:30 pm**

Kane breaks Rooney's record, all time England top goalscorer. Brilliant player

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 8:31 pm**

Well done, Harry, but you’re still not fit to lace Rooney’s boots.

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 8:32 pm**

Should be 3!!

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 8:32 pm**

How the hell did that overpaid diving muppet miss that???

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 8:32 pm**

Grealish misses a sitter.

Tend to agree. Very dubious. However England dominating so far.

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 8:33 pm**

England are just a very very good international outfit these days.

The decision to play Phillips has proven to be a great one, it’s allowed Bellingham to play more advanced.

Posted: **Thu Mar 23, 2023 8:35 pm**

Can't see West Ham holding on to Rice. He's been superb.
