And as Jack mentioned, Dan Byrne was really impressive in terms of just...

being willing to put his head anywhere and I think you really need guys like that who maybe when the squad comes out you're a bit surprised but you know they show their worth in the big moments so yeah thankfully we we all got through those 11 minutes because it felt like much more it

It's probably looking more at the intangibles within the squad and what their belief is like.

For me, what I really liked about the game from both an England and a Mexico perspective was it wasn't really about tactics or anything.

It was just two teams going at it.

And I think that's what helps Bellingham thrive because he's probably the one player in that team that you look at and say, if someone's going to go at it and come out on top, it's him.

But in terms of defensively,

I think you're looking at that team to, you know, show different sides to themselves in different games, in different circumstances.

And I think them showing that they can, you know, sit back.

And obviously other teams have been criticized for doing that throughout the tournament, but England can do that and maybe be a bit more compact and secure.

They can do that and break from that.

I think that's another, you know, string to their bow going into the later stages of the tournament.

Can I just say on the decision after the red card, so to bring Saka off and keep Gordon on, I thought that was also really interesting.

I know I said earlier, I'm not a big fan of teams just, you know, retreating and giving the opposition, you know, the impetus in a game.

But it felt like Gordon was going to be the one to stretch because he played so much better than Saka in the game.

But with Saka, you've seen obviously a lot of talk throughout the tournament.

And it feels like that almost every tournament with him.

I mean, before it was, do you start Saka or Foden?

But once again, he's delivered with the assist for the first goal for Jude Bellingham, which he did as well, I think, against Serbia in the Euros.

Very similar cross if people think.
