Lucas is a shirt classic 10(despite playing 20 shirt).He is a nother good player formed at the base of the Santos FC, has an amazing ability to put the ball where you want. VERY CLEVER

Downside: doesn’t like to kick the field goal, he often prefers to pass the ball.

Townsend is on and looking good so far. He really can move the ball around the field at will. He’s probably been one of England’s best since coming on.

Barkley looking fairly poor. I think he has regressed a bit. Not sure if he’s going to be the star many thought he was going to be. Actually liking Will Hughes, Delle Alli and Alex Pritchard better long term.

Guess I am not surprised it’s a tight game. England really should be winning this easier.
