England fans slam Owen Farrell after performance against Wales

28 November 2020

England captain Owen Farrell was heavily criticised by fans on Twitter during the clash with Wales for his wayward kicking and ‘poor’ defence.

The fly-half missed two relatively simple kicks at goal early on and missed five tackles in an underwhelming display.

Joe Simmonds (Exeter) has to feature in this @EnglandRugby side as the kicker. Owen Farrell just not what he was a few years ago and George Ford just doesn’t justify his place anymore at 10. Farrell stay at 12 and Simmonds in at 10. #WALvENG
