11 - Kalvin Phillips regained possession of the ball 11 times against Germany, the most by an @England player in a EUROs match since Tony Adams did so 13 times, also against Germany, at EURO 1996

Yep KP regained possession very well Alf but have seen him play ( much ) better re passing.

yes he played probably 2 great passes but that was all. he needs runners to aim at though to be effective.

Toni Kroos would only be 32 at next year World Cup, but looks like KP’s just retired him from international football.

Kal's pockets are bulging with all these international midfielders in them.

Alf - That could explain both why Kalvin wasn’t so good against the Scots and Croatia were poor v the Czechs. Modric, Brozavic and Kovacic were so deeply in his pockets from the first game that they were still in there for the second round ties. Poor KP must have been knackered.
