Hmm...a right back at left back, 2 defensive midfielders and a seriously out of form Stirling. Fingers crossed it goes well or Southgate is going to get slaughtered in the morning.
“Hi Lee, it’s Gaz. Listen mate, just looking for some advice on my team selection today…”
Didnt overly impress against Romania though did he?
No but would have thought he'd be on the bench. Is there a limit to how many players can be on the bench at this tournament? Thought you could just have the rest of the squad on there?
Maguire is a waste of a squad place,been out injured for so long,Henderson isnt fully fit,why take these players if they're not up to speed? Doesnt make sense
Phillips and Stirling lucky to be in the starting line up. Grealish should be in the team but not surprised he isn't. Hopefully can make an impact from the bench.
Is Southgate bowyer in disguise ? A RB at LB and Declan Rice in midfield. Going for a 0-0 already......
I agree with you mate. I think they both went on the same FA coaching badge course lol
I'm praying we dont just sneak a win today and Southgate uses that as a way to justify his selection. Come on England we are fully behind you but we dont want a team set up not to lose fucking go for it. If you cant then lose today so Southgate has to change tact
we're in one of the two toughest groups .. essential to get off to a good start .. the much criticised line up is flexible .. Kane, Sterling, Mount, a decent attack .. perhaps over cautious in midfield but the Croats are strong there and we will need to match them .. expect a very lox scoring game ((:>)
Putting this in Charlton terms makes that Trippier choice so wrong.
Chris Solly was a fantastic RB for us. I think the 3 worst games I’ve ever seen him have were at LB. I remember he even got sent off he’d lost his head that much!
Im afraid the same will happen with Trippier. Quality RB, unproven LB being thrown in the deep end.

If you’re not going to play him, don’t take him.
Only wants to play four at the back so wants an experienced full-back alongside him.
I think this will be Southgate's last tournament. So many decisions are baffling in that line-up
Also shows his mindset, which is even more worrying.

Mount is in midfield, Grealish missed out to Foden and Sterling.
