He's linked well with Lallana and Clyne through the middle, it's just when he tries to deliver it himself that he's not very good.

It's his crossing which is possibly me off mainly. But you make a fair point. I'm being harsh.

I'm trying to remember the last tournament game we won comfortably having gone ahead in the first half and stayed ahead the whole game... Obviously it wasn't in this tournament or the last World Cup clusterfuck. Euro 2012 we beat Ukraine but with a second half goal and Sweden but they were ahead for a while... When was our actual last comfortable competitive win?

For our great attacking options we really struggle to put the ball in the net!

To answer my own question, I had to go back to 17th June 2004 and England 3-0 Switzerland. We had a 2-0 against Trinidad and Tobago (!) in 2006 but that was first goal in the 83rd minute. We just don't win easily.

Be nice to play a team who don't just defend for 90 minutes, sloavakia have about 7 defenders on

This is true, pretty much everyone has struggled against well organised defended in this tournament

6 changes tonight has been the main issue, we dominate possession but struggle to create clear cut chances. Hodgson seems very indecisive at picking a formation and system and seems to air on the side of caution as a result, in the attacking third there doesn't seem any real plan. Barring a last minute catastrophe we are through but it's very stuttery.

ITV's sports coverage has always been shite This is true, pretty much everyone has struggled against well organised defended in this tournament
True, but the best teams find a way to score. We have had only 5 attempts on target, not enough with how dominant we have been
