Well i'd like to say that I thought England did really well last night against France and i'm really encouraged by the start we've made.
Considoring we're missing players, we've just got a new manager, we were playing in hot temperatures that we never do well in, and we were playing a team technically superior and who haven't lost in over two years, we did bloody brilliant and we caused the french side a lot of problems ourselves.
We could even have won the game if it wasn't for the dirty french tactics and poor officials. Every time we had a chance to break a french player would commit a cynical foul so they could get back into position, and they never even got booked for it! They fouled us loads of other times as well and we didn't even get free kicks for hardly any of them.
Anyway I think it's a really good start by us.
