PARAGUAY

Ok, so we beat Paraguay 1-0. All very well but the second-half performance was, to say the least, a bit quiet. Heat, that terrible natural phenomenon, was responsible for the slovenely manner in which certain players went about their business. Play it in November I say.

OK, 29 degrees of heat in the cauldron of the Waldstadion in Frankfurt may not have been the best playing conditions but really...............Trinidad & Tobago next, a mouthwatering prospect that is. I shall be watching it from the luxury of my Pyrennean hotel room.

Come on England
