That 5th one was the first worthy yellow card too. 

Definitely need a CB this month. Maybe not to disrupt the Cashin/Fozzy partnership, which is doing so well at the moment, but injuries/suspensions will come and we can't rely on Davies or Chester to be fit. 
If somebody would have told me back in July that Fozzy would be our first choice CB whilst mounting a play off challenge, I'd have laughed and laughed hard. Fair play to him and the coaching team, rekindled some serious form after seasons of injuries and cameos.

Thought the tempo was good first half, and Cambridge were lucky to survive so long without conceding. Not sure what people expect from a gruelling L1 season with a newly formed team.

Looks like there’s some truth to it.
Ukrainian recon units are very close to the city boundaries and the Russian military command for the area have withdrawn from the city and relocated to Rubizhny.
One to watch

With little to no real air support on that eastern flank I finding baffling the AFU can keep clawing back territory. Kremina would be a nice achievement before the NY. 

Great win, bring on the next game.

Germany had 3 tournaments under Lowe (08, 10 and 12) where they had near misses before finally winning one.
Southgate has had 3 tournaments too and I see improvement in each one.
I think he should continue. 

Only 18 months until the euros. There's nothing majorly wrong with England. Stick with Gareth and this team. 

Not a popular opinion I'm sure, but I'd hope he stays on. There are times when I've felt differently but on the balance of his tenure, I think he ought to continue. 
As for whom he might be replaced by, I'd assume it would be someone like Eddie Howe, but at this juncture, who really knows? It's not a job many of the big guns would jump at, I suspect, given it's typically a thankless task.

A game of fine margins but as well as I thought we played it's still so very classic England in tournament football. We're never on the right side of the result against the big boys are we. 
As for Southgate, not sure where I stand at the moment. I thought this would be his last tournament and if I'm honest I expected us to have a bit of a stinker, following the last Nations League performances we had running up to this. But after it's all said and done I think we had a good tournament and lost to one of the best teams, no disgrace at all. Manoeuvred the group easily and made easy work of the first knock out round. I don't have the same feeling as I did after the Italy game where I thought Southgate could have done more. 
Southgate's not a top class manager but he's a really good fit for this England team I feel. I'm not sure it's as simple as getting rid and unleashing our attacking players on the world to win a tournament. 
On another note, how bad has Mason Mount looked this WC? Looks miles away from being international quality. Can't say I see much of him at Chelsea, so no idea how he plays in the PL, but he's been a real disappointment every time I've watched him this WC. 

Southgate should stay as long as he feels he still has the energy for it of course.
I think this team is special. We may not have the silverware to prove it but I honestly do believe it is coming.
We have come so far as a nation under Southgate. From 2016 to now is honestly night and day. I have seen England evolve over his tenure from tournament to tournament. We are now at a point where we consistently make it to the latter stages of tournaments and tonight proved we can go toe to toe with the best in the world.
Bringing a supposedly 'world class coach to get it over the line' sounds all good but what's to guarantee they can get us into this position in the first place. We have been here before with England managers
Don't try and fix something that isn't broken. We are so close.
