Poor performance all round from England nervy first half for Kalvin and I thought started to settle in the 2nd half but no more than a 5 out of 10 from me.
Thought Rice should have been subbed for Grealish leaving KP on.
Looking at the last 2 games it shows we are weak in midfield, now on to Liverpool.
i thought Phillips went as well as could really be expected under what he was given but Southgate got the team and formation all wrong. should have been a 4 at the back and Kalvin in the holding role on his own with a couple of attacking mids in front of him as it was his only out ball was to the flanks... Rice is pants i really don't get it with him as an international shoe in he's just a bog standard water carrier who if he wasn't english wouldn't get a mention.
