100 football journalists from around the world (mainly Europe i suspect)

Hoping so. How teams factor in preparation for 2026 could have an impact particularly 2nd half of the season.

What started as a grim season has exploded into a really good one. If Merc, Ferrari & McLaren could have got the pre-season right it could have been a great one. Not sure how often it's being mentioned but the sprint races could be the deciding factor. Max has taken a max 32 points cored to...

Driver regs need a desperate sorting out. Could see a Prost/senna situation if gets close by the end of the season. Verstappen drove like a complete arsehole there. Ridiculous Norris gets track warnings here when Verstappen gets the penalties for forcing off the track. actually think Norris is...

No surprise there. Obvious flaws. Really learnt nothing from the series defeat in India.

267 from where they were at the 30 odd over mark 118/6 isn't a bad effort. But they've left runs out there.

Curious to see how they bat on it. With the uneven bounce batting last (assuming it gets that far) could be horrendous.

Got to wonder about the mindset. Bazball on a dodgy wicket doesn't seem smart. Maybe 4 of the wickets are poor shot selection - sweeping on a wicket with low bounce isn't a great option. But with this wicket and its bounce England spinners don't have to be as good as Pakistan's. Pitch is going...

Agreed. But he's got to realize sometimes you have to knock it long rather these risky passes down the middle to the likes of Sheaf or Eccles when they're covered.

He looks on the frail side physically to me - even if he's listed at 6ft2. But just as important he needs to find a voice. He's got dodgy CBs in front of him. He doesn't look like he knows how to take control of situations.

TBF QPR were supposed to be all over the place.

We've an obsession with width for the sake of width.its not like we're raining in crosses when we get wide. Ball normally gets passed back inside rather than us hitting the lines and crossing Plus midfield has to take a chunk of the blame for MVE. He bombs forward then midfield lose the ball...

Go 1 up in first 5 minutes against a team low on confidence. Then just switch off . Good sides go for the 2nd and twist the knife.

Poor. Frustrating they can find a bit more intent in the last 5 minutes than they showed for most of the rest of the game. Genuinely don't see who on the pitch is going to lift this team to produce better performances.

Simms never even looked up to see what was on. Had no idea Bassette was there.

No surprise there then.

It's a dreary watch. Same mistakes/issues as the rest of the season. Indecisive, sloppy basic errors, lack of positivity. They are resorting to type with the backwards passing or passing into a player under pressure Sick of hearing how all the off-field changes are setting up these players to...

He is too indecisive too often

Scruffy but we'll take it

Struggling to think of any of these young players who have developed/improved from last season. A couple seem to have regressed.
