Not a bad game. Shaw doing well against Yamal. Glad he started as he's much better defensively than Trippier. 

Ended the half slightly better. Hard to beat Spain's very efficient press.

Phwaaaaar nearly 2-0. 

When Rodri went off I got that horrid feeling. Unbelievable how fortunate England have been with those 

Spain have so many riches in the midfield they could field four different sets of personnel and not see a loss in quality. Rodri is great but they don’t lean on him as a crutch.

Manchester City have the best squad in the world but they are a different team without him, hence my concern.

Of course but in terms of philosophy City is a much tighter unit requiring precise execution, making any sort of dip in quality very noticeable. International football just can’t reach than sort of precision with so few games and changing personnel. But that isn’t an excuse for all the football terrorism we see in international tournaments.

Will open up even more now. 

Trouble being that Spain are so efficiently organised they'll be the ones that will profit...
