The opposition doesn't need to press or mark Rice. In an England shirt he marks himself out of the game 90% of the time when England defenders have the ball. He hides behind or follows the opposition 9 or 10, and often closes off his own space when he could just hold his position or back out a few steps to have space and positive body position to receive and play forward. His unwillingness to be an option is the main reason why England are so laboured in their build up play. All his defenders have is to slowly play out to the wingers, who are never in a position to go forward, so they play backwards, and repeat the process on the other side of the field. On the odd occasion he does show and receive, they look alright moving the ball forward.

The classic Italian way to winning tournaments has been to stumble through the group stages, often barely qualifying, absorbing a severe dose of criticism from an even more volatile media and nation of some 60 million self appointed football managers, then getting stronger through the elimination stages to finally peak in the final. England certainly has the talent to do so.

Its not players getting found out, its the system in place that isnt getting the best out of them. England are so deep the midfield has to operate in such a big space when teams press high up. Foden and Bellingham playing on top of each other and Kane dropping deep, theres no space going forward as well.

Saka at LB????? PLaying for the first time in the knockout stages of a Euro tournament?? Madness. Gomez filled in there regularly and he's a DEFENDER! Strong and quick.

Perhaps some England players look good at club level only because they play with exceptional teammates

Alot of these guys are tired and overwhelmed

I’ve watched Rice play regularly for years. At West Ham we always said he’s really good at what he does but what he does is not a lot. He sits deep and fills gaps well and then passes the ball back or sideways.

why are NO football journalists asking southgate why he didnt take a fit left back? when he had plenty of time to get one in with the friendlies before the euros? simply moronic decision.

100% agreed rice isn’t what the media have made out at all

the players need to grow a backbone.

The idea of Saka and Gordon on the left could be quite exciting. I think Foden drops out. Mainoo and Rice holding, with Bellingham in the 10 role. If Bellingham runs out of energy bring on Foden, fresh legs running at tired defenders. Potential to work well.

England should focus on how fo get the team playing without the fear that seems to grip managers and players since the 70's.

As we have only conceded 1 goal Rice is part of a defensive plan that’s doing its job it’s the attacking players that aren’t performing Rice isn’t there to be a creative midfielder

Don't forget, the draw has also opened up an ''easier'' way to the final for every other team in our half of the draw.

In the end BVB were happy to get rid of Bellingham. They took the money and, in Sabitzer, they now have a better "team player", who is prepared to do the dirty work involved in playing in midfield.

You have the footballers to win it but do you have the TEAM to win it.

England is good enough talent wise to be more impactful. Event with the absent of coaching, which is present - we should see moments of brilliance from the players based on their natural ability. We are not seeing anything, just a disenchanted group. England (players) are more worried about the criticism and responding to the criticism verbally rather than answer the critics on the pitch.

Correction! There has been one player who has done something in the England shirt since Hust in 1966 and that player is Raheem Sterling in almost singlehandedly dragging this England team of players, who like players of the past since 1966 always seem to fail to deliver their club form in tournaments, to the first final for an England team for over 50 years. The sad thing is this is the thanks he gets for that and for giving us our most proudest and exciting tournament experience since 1966 simply because he is black. It's time to give him some respect in doing something that over half a century of players have proved to us is very difficult to do and both understand and recognised the magnitude of what Sterling did and what kind of a player he must be to have achieved it. And if you think Palmer has shown anything in his career up to date to prove he could do the same, not only are you seriously deluded, but God help us, we might as well pack up our bags for this clown show we're presenting to the world both as players and as media contributors representing this country and leave. Both our players and our media are clowns, but even more so our media and pundits. Peace and love

Never realised Simon has such flappy arms - I thought he was getting ready to fly!

The problem with English player are they are hyped up above and beyond and the players themselves belief the hyped but are found out even by an average player from other countries.

We’re so insular as a country. The French media are BRUTAL to the team. As are the German and Spanish media. Stop complaining and get on with it.

Simon is right manager will be remembered as a loser or winner based on what happens in this tournament.

How many times do I have to spell it out for England supporters that England will never get anywhere in these tournaments unless they can discover a central midfielder who demands the ball, dictates the tempo and can open up a defense . The team can have loads of talented players but without this midfield general the team will always look disjointed.

Rice has been OK to be honest, it's been the wing play. Saka and foden can't stretch the wing backs and saka cannot run at people with speed and intent. I think Palmer and Gordon on the wings rice, Bellingham and foden in the middle would work well. Saka goes backwards to often, foden clearly drifts into the middle of the park. Kane needs a delivery so not his fault.

Martin is completely right !!!!

Only Gordon Palmer and Trippier have dome out and said we are not good enough ! The kids are the ones who are speaking the truths ! Kane is just wet he should be the one out there saying what is happening and how we improve, the CAPTAIN !

Slovakia is hard to score against. Lobotka is quality and can create.
