    I made zero effort to watch the England game last night, the group games are rarely that competitive. Some did complain about Tuchel even though he won which is ridiculous, it is what he does at the world Cup that counts.

    Haven't been able to watch any of the England games after Tuchel took over. Have they been particularly bad?

    I have watched a couple Tuchel is efficient enough I can't comment on last nights game though the games i watched he is clearly trying to determine what his best team is, which makes sense he has not been there long in international management terms.

    Tuchel is giving youth a chance which is encouraging.

    Are Norway still maintaining good form in your group.

    That's my takeaway from what I've seen too. The average age can't be that high, looking at the names that have played games under his management. Seeing as many of these players are likely to feature for years to come, I think it's a clever move. It's not like these young players aren't capable of delivering. England has a lot of talent to choose from.

    Norway played a friendly on Thursday. I wasn't particularly impressed, but a friendly isn't going to give much indication of form. The qualifier against Moldova on Tuesday will be very important. In previous tournaments this has been the type of game where Norway have ruined their chances of qualifying, so I hope they don't think this game will be easy. They have likely never had a better chance of qualifying, so they need to secure the three points in the games leading up to Italy away in November.

    England have one of the best squads in world football, I was concerned about CDM though with Warton and Anderson emerging at the right time we could go far in the World Cup.

    There are a lot of very good players that are not in the squad also, so much competition for places.

    Ødegaard and Haaland need to be at the World Cup, they don't want to be on the list of great players that never appeared at the pinnacle of international football. Did they both miss Euro 2020?
