Hodgson - I dont know why I'm here; smint?

[Saveloy]

Fair play to Hodgson. You can say what you like about him but his teams are always greater than the sum of their parts. IMO that's the manager's job in a nutshell

That's down to both the depth of football experience a manager has and also his breadth of experience - the span of different countries and even different continents he's managed in , absorbing different footballing philosophies, formations and tactical innovations, not only getting a broad footballing education but having a lifelong commitment to learning of all kinds and being exposed to thinkers like Wittgenstein, Kirkegaard, Hegel and Osborne.

That can't fail to rub off on your Milners and your Wellbecks and even someone like the young boy Rashford who is a marvellous young boy but you really can't trust him to keep possession properly yet and he's been told to work on that ahead of the Euros so he doesn't let the country down.

Vardy is like a footballing chicken, I swear he even bobs his head when he runs!

Can't deny he has a killer instinct though, fair play to him for that.

On that showing it's clear why we should bin Henderson and Lallana, and perhaps even look at a replacement for Clyne in the near future. None of them excelled.

Of the starting line-up, four players from Spurs, three from us, one each from Chelsea, Arsenal and Stoke and lastly one from Man Utd.

Aye, terrible ball in from Clyne for the Vardy goal, useless.

It was a meaningless international friendly , not sure you can or should use as a benchmark on who should and should not stay - different systems, players and well manager than what we will be seeing week in week out at Liverpool next season. Hendo might go but I very much doubt the other two will and for fairly good reason

Just watch the press label this the greatest Easter comeback since Jesus.

TBF if it was us doing the same against Barca in a friendly there'd be plenty getting carried away

[Buzzo]

England getting over hyped after a good win in a meaningless pre-tournament friendly.

...haven't seen that before.

[Gibbo]

Yep, as soon as they get into a competitive situation they fall apart and Roy falls back into his negative tactics.

[Chazza]

Given the piss easy qualification process he can only be judged in tournaments and the one he has been involved with so far should have seen him sacked.

[Tee]

Said it before but Hodgson is doing a good job with England. Can't be denied IMO

[redmike65]

Germans don't like it up 'em. The high press worked very well.

[Exiled_red]

So this is where the hype beings then...

[redmike65]

Very good team performance - Vardy's goal was a peach. Alli has it all for such a young player - apart from a finish

[spud_gun]

Apparently UEFA are considering cancelling Euro 2016 and just handing the trophy to England after this performance tonight.

[Norbs]

Take that
