    DeBruyne seems to have acres of space.

    Passing is terrible today. Were not doing too bad though overall. Just wish we'd show a bit more courage and ambition because this crowd don't strike me as a team unit

    KDB is dominating this game. Looks capable of producing a goal nearly every time he's on the ball.

    The early Belgian onslaught looks to be slowing. Thank fk. We get to 60 or 70 mins at 0-0 and this Belgian team's belief will waver. They havent a pair of balls between the lot of them.

    I'd say we have played the most lousy football of any side so far in this tournament in these 30 minutes. Apart from a couple of good blocks we are awful. Bad touches, panicking and hoofing it, no pressure and still hoofing it and when we get into a good position more bad touches and not protecting the ball....

    Whelan and McCarthy not bothering with KDB it seems.

    Anyone see James McCarthy? Heard he was in France

    he is definitely not the worst of them out there. Hendrick far too uncomposed and Hoolahan is stranded. At least mccarthy is hoofing balls and is trying to put some pressure on them

    Can't see a thing of randolphs goal in the shadow.

    Reminds me of that place in the lion king where mucosa tells simba he's not allowed to go

    Clark wins the ball but we've only got 3 men in the box

    Hendrick and Hoolihan are actually in the game though. McCarthy is a pure passenger.

    Hoolahan is having a mare.

    Of course it won't warrant the same type of character assassination that McCarthy was subjected to from 'Dumb'phy though

    Our decision making in the final 3rd is abysmal.

    We've opened them up as many times as they have us.
