  • A precautionary sub from a tweaked hamstring.
  • Toney showing today he should have been in the squad instead of one of the defenders.

    Toney should be there. Travesty he isn't. It's Bent all over again.

    It would also be a good way to keep Kane on his toes and a useful reminder he'd no longer be guaranteed to start every game.

    Toney scored an outstanding hatrick at the beginning of the season. It actually was enough to make it clear he definitely had future England potential. His 3rd goal mirrored the calm Bergkamp composure. 

    Apart of him will now be hoping a big club offer comes in January/the summer. Maybe Newcastle will look into it. 

    The England call will come at some point. Hopefully when Southgate gets shown the exit. 


  • Kane is a guaranteed starter regardless of whether Toney is in the squad or not.

    Depends if Ivan wants to go back to them
  • United need a striker. I wonder if they’d go for him.

    Said exactly the same to a mate the other day. He’s not a big name, but it’s no different from when they went and got Louis Saha, and even Dwight Yorke. He knows where the goal is.

    Yes but he needs at least some competition...so he will play better

    I don’t think Kane needs any competition or encouragement to play well for England. He’s our best player.

    Competition for spots in the 1st team is always healthy and it is a benefit, no matter how good you are. 
    Giving Kane an extra push and extra motivator to better himself certainly wouldn't be a bad thing. He's very competitive.

    There’s absolutely no way Kane needs the motivation, nor is he concerned about being dropped. 
  • Kane is also the captain. He could probably go a year without an England goal and still wouldn't lose his place.

    Anyone else sad enough like me and eagerly awaiting the 'arrivals' video on the England youtube channel?

    Yep. The Lions Den feature returns on Thursday as well.

    20 minutes of people stepping out of a car, giving a fist bump and saying “alright”

    Can’t wait. for some reason its a great watch. 
  • The woman that meets the players in a weapon as well
  • Maddison with Ashley Cole Vibes


  • No Ivan Toney in the England squad

    He was probably 50/50 to go anyway but given he is the subject of an ongoing betting investigation by the F A, I can't help thinking that this might have tipped the balance against him. Shame because I think he offers something both different and unexpected given his lack of exposure on the international stage. 
    He has now been charged by the FA with 232 breaches of betting rules. As I say, that is the likely reason why he was left out of the squad because this was in the offing and would have been a distraction the squad really didn't need.
  • Just been watching an interview with Maddison on the BBC website.... never heard him speak before, and have to say I am very impressed. Comes across hugely articulate, intelligent and measured.

    Yeah certainly a common theme with him. I’ve heard him a few times and he always comes across brilliantly, some of which has been after some tough moments, both for him and Leicester. Definitely one of the most likeable ones 
  • He’s often interviewed after Leicester games. Comes across as very tactically aware.
