3-0 England (Saka). Why didn't we play like this all tournament???.
‘We’? That’s a deportation offence.

Anyway, maybe not having a bag of nerves in goal at one end and a deadweight up front at the other gives them more confidence.

Shush now, don't blow my cover. They've I mean we've got the Euros coming up.

4-0 (Saka). Getting embarrassing now.

Now that Rogers is off, would we go for Rashford? Sorry 4:0...

Well clearly doesn’t have the edge of the other games but shows what might have been with better selection and more attacking intent!

Why did we not do this in the semi final?

See, this is great. A chance to steal a bit of the limelight before the big boys do their thing.

Saka playing like he has something to prove after being dropped last game.

Best thing Watkins was arguably the most in form player before the tournament and hasn’t been show cased. Hopefully fresh for the coming season!

In fairness it's against a mainly reserve side that seem to have little interest being there.

I wasn't going to watch it but just put it on. Sacre Bleu, France have well and truly shit the bed.

I know it doesn't really mean anything but it's nice to give the French a bit of a kicking.

Let’s go 5 at the back after HT, just to be radical.

We should introduce a bronze match in the FA Cup.

It’s very different - the main thing is at least they tried to attack

One big massive shrug from The Shruggers, this.
