They had a massive downer on the team for the whole match, really laying into them, which I thought was unfair, as Nigeria were extremely organised. I didn't see most of the first half and I know the Nigerians hit the bar twice, but they rarely threatened in the second half and just looked to...

Great play by Beth England since coming on. Really steadied the side and clever free kick won on the edge of our box.

England really just need to be sensible and play for pens. Obviously if the opportunity presents itself then great, but do nothing daft.

They're missing keys players from the Euro final, it's not a surprise we're not as free flowing as then, but I agree with the Russo/Daly conundrum. Russo and Toone were so much better as impact subs in the Euros, but it does show there is still a dearth of talent coming through the ranks. Lots...

She's going to go. Has to

Commentators being very hard on England. The Nigerians were never going to be a pushover, they're a strong physical side and whilst had the better chances in the first half, have sat back most of the second hoping to counter. Yeah England are finding it tough, but they're still right in this.

Well in Suzy's own words she'd like to be referred to as her/she, but understands it's a huge change and still doesn't mind being called Eddie and he/him. She's still going under Eddie for public appearances, so I guess you can't really get it wrong. However just out of common courtesy you'd do...

For us it's a staggering amount, but for Chelsea it is really chump change when you look at what they've spent over the last few decades, or even the last year. Then contrast that with what the Saudis could spend and I doubt £100m would even register on their coin purse radar. Really does show...

The article about Oscar in China was fascinating and highlighted the pitfalls of such long contracts in those leagues when the bubble bursts.

Isn't Jacobs on the Chelsea payroll? If they're panicking then he's bound to try and throw some spanners in the works. It's just an utter crazy pantomime. Only Tony and Paul will know and they aren't going to spill the beans anytime soon.

Well it's Football Insider, so I'd take it with a huge pinch of salt, but I'm finding Liverpool always coming in for these players just as tedious as Chelsea. They'll have some weird low ball offer that'll be packaged as a great deal, but I hope Bloom tells them to bugger off and it's £100m or...

Hyperion by Dan Simmons. Acclaimed as a sci-fi classic, so giving it a go. Enjoying it.

And England score from the drop ball 😂 China will be fuming.

We don't have a dog anymore, but there's been an explosion of false barley grass up our way which is causing a lot of headaches for local dog owners. The Council have thoroughly embraced not mowing big areas of parks and verges under the guise of rewilding the borough, as it also saves them a...

Genuinely gutted if true. I honestly thought he'd play a big part this season especially with the Europa League, he's a very instinctive striker.

And that's what makes me laugh and pisses me off in equal measure. It was a Johnson Mayoral policy to introduce the one currently in place and a lot of voters were for it. Then all of a sudden they want to expand it and it'll now affect same voters and they're screaming foul, it's a conspiracy...

Denmark have created absolutely nothing apart from when we've been sloppy in play and given the ball away cheaply. They've not even really pressed that well, just sat back. England just need to analyse this and is it through lack of concentration? communication and leadership on the pitch? The...

You do forget we're missing the spine of the team. Williamson, Kirby, White (retired) and now Walsh. Big blows all of them.

Coombs has done well in that little 10 mins, steadied things. Definitely lost our way, though fair play to Denmark, they've sussed our fullbacks out and defending and countering very well. It's easy to forget they're ranked 13th in the world, so no mugs. I just don't get the sloppy passing...
