England's plan was to keep possession of the ball. Unfortunately, they don't seem to have realised that the purpose of possession is so that you can score goals.

We kept being promised that they would get better but you're right they did not know what to do and so they didn't. That was a managerial blunder.

A well organised team however poor will invariably do better than a badly organised one.
