Sterling is the most overrated player in the history of football. Unbelievably poor. Pep will ship him out without doubt.

Both full backs have been excellent. Dier is tremendous by the way. What a prospect.

Russia showed nothing special, they're lucky to have Akinfeev as a goalkeeper. I think if Vardy was playing, we could see 2-0 already, too many chances were missed. Lallana is working on the pitch, but there is no need for that, England need more attack. Dier does well in the central, England has to come better to the second half if they want to win it. To be honest, England was looking better than any teams until now.

Sterling off Rashford on for me

come on England, reckon my pub team could give his Russian side a good game

The Euro 2016 logo annoys me to no end. The trophy part looks like a face, and the red part on the left looks like the Soviet or Chinese flag.

Right concentrate, me that is

Thats the kind of ball Vardy gets on.

Crying out for Vardy I reckon, we need a nippy little f**ker in there causing havoc

Poor start to the second half.

Sterling? EPNS i reckon...

Lacks a bit of metal ;)

How long do you give Vardy? 20 mins at least imo. Nothing ventured...

Get him off, i have had enough now.

Sterling off, Vardy on.

Get him off, i have had enough now.

He's not playing based on form. Typical England.

Surely this is a game we could and should be winning with the right players in the right positions ?

Sterling is the new younger version of Walcott. Fast, but has terrible end product.

Having trouble with basics tonight. Awful.

Roy is reminding me of hiddink. Make a f**king sub.

Woy really needs to make some substituitions very soon half the team look knackered..

Embarrassing to get turned by that lump Gaz

Looking stale need a change.

Lallana and sterling off for

Rashford and vardy plz

Hell's teeth this is frustrating!

I'm getting really frustrated. For once we are playing well in an international tournament game, and we have been so frigging wasteful. Sterling not throwing himself to score pissed me off so much, if that is Vardy, he throws himself at that and scores.

I was wondering about that too. Why didn't he throw something at it? It looked as if he just watched it go by. None of the commentators mentioned anything
