The only reason Mitchell didn’t go as left back is probably because even Southgate thinks that taking 5 Crystal Palace players is taking the piss

Was a handball 


The ball touched his hand, but under no interpretation of the rules is that a handball. I thought the law changed that it only counted now if it touched the hand of the goal scorer?

 

Or have the changed they rule for a 3rd time in 12months?

It was deemed a handball because his hand was in an unnatural position above waist height, according to the ref expert. 
The second bit wouldn’t apply I don’t think. Because that’s only if it’s handball but ‘accidental’ with the hand / arm in a ‘natural’ position by the goalscorer. 
I’m not sure I agree as it seems very harsh to me. But that’s the explanation/ interpretation and the supposed recommended decision. So the ref got it right, arguably at least, according to the current guidelines. 
Either way though the VAR decisions have at least been much quicker than some of the ridiculous delays we’ve seen in the Premier League.

They get some stick, ITV, but they not only show the games but ALWAYS give you fantastic opportunities to win four tickets for the final of whatever tournament it is PLUS fifty thousand quid to spend and all you've got to do is phone an 0898 premium cost number! Honestly, man, just an amazing TV station. ❤️

And then receive five texts a week for even more competitions from the fuckwits on This Morning. What a deal

If Southgate doesn't make changes for the next game then hes deliberately throwing away our chances of winning.

 

Its nothing to do with having our best players on the pitch its to do with having a cohesive team that can control a game and make chances.

 

If you watched that match and thought that we looked good or that Foden is the answer on the left wing you shouldn't be talking about football.

 

TAA was dreadful, he shouldn't be starting for England at right back never mind midfield.

 

Our left side is a problem, without an overlapping left back, which we don't have since Shaw isn't fit Foden can not start next game there, he doesn't stay wide, he doesn't carry the ball and he doesn't attack his fullback directly.

 

IMO we should drop TAA and Foden for the Denmark game, bring in Gallagher or even Wharton for the midfield so that we have a midfield of midfielders.

 

Neither are very exciting but they will do what needs to be done and keep possession, let Rice and Bellingham be the spark there.

 

Left wing has to be Gordon, he does everything that Foden didn't against Serbia. He stays wide and cuts in late, he drags play up the field and he LOVES getting stuck into a fullback.

dixon is starting resemble lawrenson, sounding like he’d rather be anywhere else than commentating on the game he’s watching. Give the job to somebody who enjoys being paid handsomely to watch live football

Absolutely. Which is why I think it was harsh. But that was the explanation given.
