First half, Harry Kane was the best player on the pitch. Winning everything he was. Headers, free-kicks, blocks. Put a great shift in.

He has to be compared in the same bracket as all the great English forwards.

In my time there's been five World class forwards

Lineker, Shearer, Owen, Rooney and Kane would be the fifth.

I get Villa fans hyping him up, but I'm genuinely curious what other clubs fans are seeing in him.

Having Grealish on the bench is the equivalent to Bobby Robson having Gazza on the bench in Italia 90, it's unthinkable.

I'm not saying Grealish is as good as Gazza, but he is considered by most our most talented player.

Also Italy weren't gonna just let us start attacking in their half, maybe they were better as a team than us? Italy's not the kinda team where Southgate/England can just click their fingers and start dominating Italy, whether Grealish was on or not.

Btw Grealish didn't do anything when he came on anyway, it feels like the Media's spreading this Myth that Grealish was gonna be our lord and saviour, but what did he honestly do this tournament?

We weren’t able to get the ball to Grealish for his first ten minutes as the midfield lacks creativity.. he did go through a short period of success but then he was stamped on which sadly slowed him down

Imo that's an off game under Southgate.

Because let's face it the rest of the Tournament weren't exactly like that for us, especially compared to the last Euros where we were bad in nearly every match.

I've waited my all life for a night like this and I'm not gonna waste it just because we lost. I'm drinking until breakfast time.

Well for one thing he was limping slightly at the end plus he hasn’t taken a penalty for two years and he missed that one soooooooll

He started one game and lasted about 60 minutes then came on for 20 minutes in three games .. now considering it takes ten minutes to get used to the pace of the game ...20 minutes isn’t long enough

Exactly.. even Jose was bemused that Grealish hasn’t started every game

We couldn’t even batter an ageing Denmark team who were without their best player and were down to ten , leg weary men

I honestly don't see it, imo he is a decent player that the Media are trying to blow up into the English version of Messi, it's embarrassing imo.

Every time I watch Grealish I keep waiting for him to do something that makes me see him as a special player, but I honestly haven't seen it yet.

Imo Villa's only world class player they've got at the moment imo is Martinez as he is a fantastic Goalkeeper that I honestly wish we'd snapped up whilst he was struggling to become Arsenal's number one. Players like Grealish, Mings, Konsa, El Ghazi, and McGinn I see as the grade below, and controversially I just don't rate Ross Barkley at all for any Premier League team, but that's just me personally.

It's not good for the lads confidence when the manager doesn't trust him. Let the lad play and show his ability.
