England's performance against Hungary was disappointing on Saturday and so, too, was the result.
But, that said, I do understand Gareth Southgate wanting to have a look at one or two new faces, and I get that, of the four matches in this get-together, the Magyars away in front of 30,000 school kids will have been the most difficult get up for. Now it’s done and dusted, though, I don’t want any more experimentation from England.
I want to see Southgate playing his best team in as many games as possible between now and the World Cup, and especially against Germany tonight and Italy on Saturday. If we can go to Munich, put in a good performance and win 2-0, and the fans have enjoyed it, then it won’t half stand us in good stead for later in the year because we’re close enough to the World Cup for these things to matter.
