"A howler" - Four England players Steve Borthwick must drop, and who should replace them for quarter-final
#1. Jonny May
Telegraph 4/10: "May brought energy as ever but there was also the customary chaos. Out of position for Samoa’s second try, leaving Steward to scramble in vain."
Rugby Pass 4/10: "It was his break that scattered the Samoan defence on 18 minutes in the lead-up to the infringement that gave Farrell his points record, but that was about it for him on the ball and he will instead be remembered for ineffectively clinging onto a leg of the tr-scoring Ah-Wong minutes later. England need a hurry up in this position, with May not looking the part."
RUCK 4/10: "We’re uncertain why he continues to be selected over the lightning-fast Henry Arundell, Seemed to spend the whole afternoon running sideways"
Replacement: Henry Arundell
#2. Alex Mitchell
Telegraph 5/10: "Executed a sublime first-half turnover which sent George clear; only the slightest of Tumua Manu knock-ons saved his bacon after a skewed box-kick looked to have handed Samoa their third try."
RUCK 4/10: "Delayed around the breakdown, constantly putting England under pressure."
Planet Rugby 5/10: "The scrum-half was very lucky a Samoan try on the back of his poor box kick was ruled out. A great player on the front foot but one that could improve when managing the game when under pressure."
Telegraph 5/10: "Scrummaged his socks off, as is his wont, but will not enjoy some of the defensive review, where he was palpably off the pace."
Rugby Pass 5/10: "It started off as his sort of game, England on the front foot and the prop clearing breakdowns and enjoying the scrum. However, once Samoa got possession and shifted it about, he was left flagging and was pulled eight minutes into the second half despite a chunky tackle count."
Replacement: Kyle Sinckler

#4. Owen Farrell
Telegraph 4/10: "England’s captain led admirably in defence, became his country’s all-time leading point-scorer - ending Jonny Wilkinson’s 22-year reign - but he was rusty. The shot-clock gaffe was a howler."
I’ve got nothing against Farrell at all but he wouldn’t be in my match 23 for Fiji, largely down to balance of the team and need for smith on Bench he has looked rusty too
