Can't see the point of Defoe tbh.i know he's in good form and he might score a couple of goals, but I would rathertry a younger player to give him some experience. I doubt Defoe will be appearing at the next world cup so why pick him
Not sure what Stones has done this season to warrant a place. Smalling is the better centre half in my opinion.
Against Lithuania having a center half who is good in possession will be important, as England will have, er, all of the football.
Agree with Blackpool re: Defoe. If there was a tournament this summer I'd get it, but we're 15 months away from one. I've never been a huge fan of Defoe's but to his immense credit he's kept himself very fit and he has improved his all around game as he's gotten older. But surely giving Rashford a start, or playing Sterling as a false 9 from the start, would be better.

I can't convey in words how much I hate the boring monotonous sound that that band makes all the way through every England match. Especially in games like this. Sometimes I wonder if it dictates the tempo England pay at.

Bet that's never ever happened since football started in 1992.

4-4-2? 4-2-3-1?
Think it must be
-------------Hart
Walker - Stones - Keane - Bertrand
---------Dier - Oxlade-C
-----Sterling - Alli - Lallana
------------Defoe

Did both teams agree beforehand that this would be a game of walking football?
Dull but that's down to Lithuania more than England.
However he is still a judas w@nk3r.
