That was cack, but it's job done as far as qualification is concerned. I think the only way England fail to qualify is if they lose to Wales by 4 goals or more. Not pretty, but being pretty in the group stage never won anyone a World Cup.

USA should have won that game.
Southgate wouldn't get a job in the premier League. Fraud of a manager. Speaks well though about none football matters so to ticks that box
When keifer Moore (born in Torquay), comes out and says he can't wait to beat England, wtf, talk about setting your self up for a fall!!!

When the previous record was 2 semis in 52 years?Is that the box ticking manager we are talking about?

It's being completely wasted. A decent manager beats Italy and Croatia.
Come on now this is the same manager who got us to the Euro final and WC Semi. No team plays every game perfectly.....rather slowly build up than go all out in the group....it's still a possibility let's be positive

A good manager would have this squad firing on all cylinders, Southgate has them Firing on three cylinders and a misfire on one of the others

The squad in Russia wasn’t very good, It had Ali, lingard, Ashley young Delphi, Phil jones, Cahill, welbeck etc etc etcGetting to a World Cup semi with that squad wad a miracle and certainly wasn’t better than the Croatia squad

How many of this England squad are even the best players in their own squad never mind in the PL or CL? Grealish hardly ever starts for City and he is one of our most creative players.

Got to a world cUp semi and a euros final and the only argument people have is about how bad the opposition was. The opposition were no worse than the sides that have knocked us out before and no different to all the World Cup winners have played to win the trophy Just because it’s England people woukd rather look for excuses as to why they did well rather than embracing the success
