Bringing it back to England slightly, it was great to see them dominate Croatia, even if it is apparent that the World Cup will probably their zenith as a national team for quite some time. What's most encouraging is how much more strength in depth is there, even than there was in June. The emergence of Sancho and Gomez as international players, two proper left backs in Chilwell and Shaw and you have Oxlade-Chamberlain to come back to, hopefully, give us the quality central midfielder that we're only really missing. It's pretty impressive progress with regards to young English players making their spots at their clubs their own and there's still plenty of quality around that is going to develop giving time.
And for Southgate to look at that bench, which was incredibly stacked and full of options, and pick the three right subs out of it all says a lot about how he's emerging as a manager.
Mind, shame we couldn't beat Croatia when it mattered.
