Kane has expended all his energy playing for Bayern Munchen..He is finished as a footballer, and will not perform to the same standard next season! England needs to replace him permanently!

You can see why Kane and Son were the best partners. Tottenham didn't have any worldclass players except Son, but he scored more comfortably than the national team or the current Munich. Basically, two or three players can be tied up, and off-the-ball movements made defense difficult and drew attention, and because dribbling shooting links are all huge, Kane was able to focus on scoring goals in the center. He was Kane's best partner because he was not just good at dribbling but he was also a great player in goal determination. Son was a partner who offset Kane's shortcomings.

Qualified unbeaten, now they’re top of their group. Let the post-mortem begin!

Kane dropping deep works at club level because of the players he plays with that look after the ball really well. England don’t do that, everything is very basic.

I hope Kane listens to what Gary said in this video. Great advice. Saw on numerous occasions he has the ball either too deep or wide when he should be the one in the middle waiting for the ball and score. He wasn't even at False 9 position. Foden / Bellingham / Saka are used to fluid systems at their clubs so they can adapt but they cannot carry a player upfront who doesn't press well or constantly out of position.

Someone needs to tell Kane to stay upfield (or no further back than an 8 position) but fundamentally the lack of pace is killing us. Bowen and Eze arent the answer , Gordon may well be.

I watched England win the world cup in 1966. Ever since then it seems that the story is that we always have some top class players but the team rarely performs with any style or confidence.

Someone mention that the malaise may have been the worry of getting injured on that crappy pitch. I remember Jude's knee snapping back oddly as he went down. With Gerrard and Lampard, the answer was to play neither of them

The English players don’t want to risk getting injured and getting dropped from their clubs next season. Too much money involved in transfers and salaries. They score a goal for England which is just enough and then go into defensive mode. They are not going to run with the ball and risk getting injured just so England can win the Cup.

Gosh, it is rather cynical but to be honest, with all the money at stake, but that would be a hard thought to ignore. Sad, reality. Never thought of that. Jude for example was a shadow of his performance on Sunday

Both wingers and fullbacks need to penetrate deeper into the halfway line, believing in Kane. In midfield matches, penetration should take place more often, and when an opponent falls down, England must wide both sides and attract the opponent. Always build up of fullbacks, wingers and midfielders on the side to create space to target the down opponent with cutbacks. A prepared set-piece strategy should be the next best option.

No more frustrating than watching Noddy`s best friend when he was playing. He also won sweet FA.

There was no positives today

There's a saying, Change or die. Something tells me Southgate will not change and Tuesday might just be his last England game.

That was a proper insight into what a forward needs to do. Gary lineker is a brilliant broadcaster but was also a brilliant footballer and he has just shown the everyday man how a forward operates. Simply explained but such a great way to get people understanding what Kane needs to do.

I'm kinda glad they're seeing this for what it is, if Foden's shot goes in we have the same old analysis: "Job done, performance doesn't matter", we don't pass the eye test and we haven't for a while, we'll get to the quarters and be knocked out without a true chance of beeting anyone top 10. I am surprised how quickly they crossed over though because they've backed him so long.

Southgate and David Moyesball are the same type of football. Shearer says one thing about Southgate and another about his coaching badge mate Moyesball - Hypocrite

England have outgrown Kane and other like Walker and Tripper . It’s time to move on from him and England being Harry team to letting the youngsters take over.

I’m not surprised at all. English league is not the strongest one for sure. Spanish German Italian and French are much stronger and more important better for young players and development. This English Team even proofs that as the best English stars are playing abroad (Foden is an exception). There is no way they can compete with Spain Germany France or Italy. Technically they can’t stand with them, Physically possible, Tactically no, Mentally big no. Money don’t make you the best League or best Team. Every tournament shows that and the gap between the best and England is getting bigger and bigger

How many times has Alan Shearer said “how many times” in such a short space of time.

Alan Shearer is right, Gordon will pair well with Harry Kane upfront with Saka...but Gordon is Southgate's secret weapon for the knock-out stages where we will meet the likes of Germany and France. My fear is we haven't found a way of unlocking the defensive low-ranked teams which can unexpectedly knock out a big team and this is typical of EUROs tournament...recall that Greece in 2004 was very low ranked in that tournament but they went on to win.

Before every championship, we hear about how the English team THIS time has an extraordinary group of talented players. And every time they fall right through.

After 2004 Rooney was crap for England. He will tell you himself. Kane is a huge part of why the team drops off and can't complete passes, he keeps dropping into midifield and doesn't put enough pressure on the backline to stretch teams.
