I find arguments like this tiresome....do we just ignore that in 2016 that Sweden knocked the powerhouse Germany out at the group stages....England play the team they are presented with through the draw....I Don't buy this piss "if Argentina hadn't drew against so and so...then England would have played Spain instead of Denmark" it's all bullshit, you can only beat what is presented in front of you.

Germany were rubbish in 2018. Both Mexico and South Korea beat them and they actually beat Sweden.

England have historically had generous runs and always fail as soon as they come up against a decent team.

Since '66 I don't think they've ever beat a team that was the top 10 favourites to win it.

Lordy!! You can he will be getting it ripped out him for evermore cos of that video. I  remember when southgate made that pizza advert which made light of him missing that penalty and it made him a national hate figure all over again. Actually felt sorry for Kane, he will relive that moment for the rest of his life. Dress it up any way you want but England have never had a better chance of winning a world cup.

So what's the argument....if they knocked out Germany in 2018 instead of the easy team ie Sweden on this occasion the argument is "aye but this German team are shite"

Shame for England, loads of this group 27 or older and probably a last chance for them at a WC.

Mbappe and a couple of others aside that's a poor French team though.

Seen a lot of bollocks that Mbappe apparently didn't get a kick? Rewatch the first goal and then he put one on a plate for Giroud /Dembele in the second half

 

Agreed, he had a quiet-ish game, thats all. But that run vs Walker 2nd half was what he has done all WC and was a joy to watch, the lad is 23, five years off this peak. Frightening.

Bellingham had one eye on Mbappe to help Walker and often did, but that reduced his effectiveness when England had possession.

Saka challenge; not a foul, lad goes down too easy. Contact does not equal foul. 

Kane 1st half: it was a foul, but not a penalty, clearly just outside the box.

Should of subbed Southgate after Senegal and brought in Lampard, full force tactics all out attack kick the Frogs back to Agincourt style last thing Deschamps would of expected just like Frank did to Bielsa in the playoffs

The fact is that any time they have come up against a good team in the last 50 years they've lost.

He gets hit about three times, he falls after getting hit on the head/neck and tries to stay up  

There is absolutely no chance anybody watches that and seriously thinks it’s not a foul.

Honestly can't wait until Ronaldo retires, just a constant circus with him now.

Ronaldo was probably being filmed for a new documentary.
