The Twitter gags were far more entertaining than the on-pitch action as England draw with Slovenia

Well that was f**king dreadful.

There is no need for match reports when a five-word Inbetweeners quote pretty much perfectly sums up the display from England in Slovenia on Tuesday night.

Gareth Southgate watched his side notch up just the the three shots on target throughout the 90 minutes, their lowest tally in a competitive game in over two years, and it really made for uninspiring viewing.

Wayne Rooney started the game on the bench (you may have read something about that) and he was called on after 73 minutes to turn the tide but, apparently, the tide was unturnable in the 0-0 draw.

Not even the introduction of Marcus Rashford could bring the required intensity to the pitch as the Slovenian scoreboard minder received an easy night’s work.

But the jokes on Twitter weren’t half bad, at least.

It's nice to see that Gareth Southgate has so quickly managed to impose his personality and flair on the team. #SLOENG

I've got to say, Slovenia vs. England was a fantastic game of football. What a belter, it had everything.

Bring back Big Sam. He might be expensive though.

Wayne Rooney should have quickly changed into a clown suit for the anthems – then he'd FINALLY have got some press…

Gareth Southgate – England manager
Jordan Henderson – England captain

That sums it up.

I know what this game is missing, Harry Kane on corners. #SLOENG

The highlight of this game was the chocolate digestives I dispatched with a cup of tea around 20 mins ago.

It that game had just been played in League One you'd still say it was average #SLOENG
