Maybe they will slip out a bit after tonight's performance. I managed a few minutes of the second half before switching Landward on instead.

It actually starts on Friday night with Germany v Scotland. I doubt that I will watch much. I'm a bit torn between wanting our lads to do well and wanting them out, home early and getting a bit of rest like Jack and Erling.

Not looking good for the Jocks. 3-0 down at half time and down to ten men. I've only ever seen City come back from that. Last minute winner from Macken at Spuds. What an absolute cracker.

Foden had a very quiet game last night. Won't be long before the media start to get on his back. The Bellingham love fest continues.

I am hoping this is a tournament Foden will shine but he needs to step it up. Early days though.

It is called Talkshite for a reason. If he scores a winner then he will be the best thing since sliced bread. Then if he has a quiet game, he will be shit again.

His behaviour against City in the Champions League was a display of all of the worst in football. Petulance, play acting, time wasting, fouling and moaning. I can't stand the lad.

I've not really seen him much but he can only be better than the procession of rags that you see otherwise. Jenas on comms tonight, just how does he keep getting jobs? It is the same wankers as you see on Sky and TNT, as if they do a decent job on there.

I see Shearer has been saying that Scotland were denied a clear penalty last night. Strange that, there were two far more clear penalties missed for City in the FA Cup Final and they just got ignored by Shearer and the BBC.

Good goal to equalise but it's been a shocking performance on the pitch and off the pitch.

As much as I hate to say it. Foden has had a very poor tournament. 4 games and he's done nothing. I know Southgate hasn't helped but I've been so disappointed in his performances. I doubt he'll get another chance in the next game.
