It was an entertaining game and England played well. They actually involved the backs which helped.
Just on the game itself - it will again divide those elsewhere for whom Jones is the devil or god and England were lucky or bold
FWIW - I thought England might sneak it - they are capable in any game - but lucky to an extent that France were post Covid break and lacked gametime. And lacked the sense at times to do the simple. BV was predictable - but his fans will suggest he like his best - he really wasn't and had France kicked sensibly out of hand and won their own line outs, England's throwing reckless passes, would seem just that
The France coach will be happy - not with the result - but that France were able to deliver under pressure, the sort of imaginative play that can unlock any defence. England showed that professional rugby player can pass it and make breaks - but it seemed too much "one off's" and not "units" of players making things happen
It was also clear that the French approach to the breakdown was more per the Laws suggest and the ref agreed mostly.
If England go onto give Ireland a good seeing to, it's been a fair season - but one where I'm not persuaded that we do have the ideas - were we to come up against a team prepared to be more pragmatic and not play like its a RWC group game between two teams that can't qualify.....
