And that's something that I don't think Medawake and Gordon were doing enough in terms of, you know,

disrupting the opposition defence and giving them more than one problem to solve.

Just on Saka, and it's not just Tim because, you know, it's the discussion point that's been there since before kickoff, actually, on Saka and whether he's sharp enough.

But I do think he's shown in that cameo against Croatia with that little shimmy away from Guardiola that led to his assist that he can still be explosive in moments.

So...

I wonder whether it's just about picking him for the right games, right opponents and right moments, rather than, you know, looking at him as the star all the time.

Kind of like, I guess we saw with Messi, and I'm not putting him in that bracket, but Messi coming off the bench in their final group game last night.

Yeah, I mean, if you're looking at their whole back line last night, they all have Premier League experience.

I know Mbembe less so than the others because he was at Newcastle for just a short amount of time, about 10, 11 years ago.

But still, I do feel like they would pose a bigger threat than Panama did last night.

And also when you look at how they played against Portugal as well, they were able to stay in the game even though they went 1-0 down.

So for me, I'm not looking at D.O.A.

Congo as a given.

I know England should expect to win that match.

But especially with the goals that were both disallowed and allowed yesterday that they scored, I think they will definitely fancy themselves to cause an upset.

And I think it'll be another game where England have to really not feel like they're owed a win or try and coast through the game, but really show an intensity from minute one to get the job done again.

More intensity, I think, than they showed yesterday.

I think Mexico, just because they're obviously a host nation that have got nine points from nine.

So I think that's something that's worth mentioning.

There are quite a few others.
