10 things we learnt from England’s drab draw in Slovenia

Walcott’s wobble

Theo Walcott, he started, we promise! Though we don’t blame you if you forgot after last night’s sluggish showing.

It was until the 62nd minute that Southgate finally realised the Arsenal winger was ineffective against Slovenia, finally bringing on Andros Townsend for the final third of the match.

The 27-year-old severely struggled to find his rhythm inside the Stozice Stadium, often dithering with the ball, rather than advancing down the flanks, before picking the wrong decisions at the wrong time.

Despite being in-form for the Gunners in the Premier League, Walcott showed on the international stage exactly why he was left out of England’s Euro 2016 squad.
