Da feck is that team all about
It might not be down to stupidity. He may have picked up a knock or something.I find it incredible that Southgate would rather have two keepers on the bench rather than one of Europe’s most creative players
Maybe judge him at full time?He’s a shambles, no idea how he has this job when his only other experience is relegating Middlesbrough.
He must be already injuredI'm happy - one less chance for him to pick up an injury.
Less United players in today's squad the better, I dont think England is going to win anyway.Shaw is literally the best full back in the squad - all round. Grealish should be an automatic starter. Surely you don't play a weakened side against Croatia? Crazy stuff.
The image of England Lion's Heart scotty Parker crawling trying to chase Andrea Pirlo's shadow stucked in my mind for long time. Got fair "abuses" from my seria A fanatic mates that day. '"Isnt he supposed to be PL's best player?", "PL's best player is a caveman?", etc, etc. As It turns out that scott Parker was voted PL best player in 2010 ahead of Dimitar Berbatov and Nani by clueless English pundits.This was even after the first Pirlo game too when he absolutely dominated the match in 2012 (i think it was 2012). I'm sure I remember Michael Owen saying something similar around that time about English players being superior. It is a case of pundits/ex players not watching foreign leagues I think.
Personally I actually think this England team justifies the optimism in a lot of ways, at least in terms of the individual quality of the players. Guess we'll see how it goes.
Unfortunately looks like it. However Kane is still at a good age where he should be in his prime for the world cup... though I doubt Southgate gets replaced if they just lose to Portugal or France in the early knockout phase.Yep, it’s going to be another wasted tournament
He's had the job for about 5 years, I doubt waiting one more game to judge him will make a difference.Maybe judge him at full time?
New rule.... no United players.Why is Rashford not playing?
Hardly in form is he!!Why is Rashford not playing?
Sterling over Grealish, Sancho or Rashford is a terrible choice. Hell, if we're going based on how good their seasons are, the quality of player, then it should be Sancho and Grealish. If we're picking for counter attacking it should be Rashford and Sancho. Foden I get (even though disagree with him being ahead of Sancho, Grealish or Rashford ignoring injuries), but no chance Sterling after this past season where he was shit and others were far superior.At least the front 3 are a solid choice. Personally I agree with Mount over Grealish as well.
The choice to play a right back at left back when you have Chilwell and Shaw is mental.
He might be injured.Not starting Sancho is understandable even if you disagree with the decision, but to disclude him from the squad entirely is utterly bizarre. Equally bizarre is the decision to play Trippier ahead of Shaw and Chillwell.
Mental.
Also we have Chilwell and Saka! So even if Shaw was injured what the hell is he thinking? I can only imagine it’s wanting a right footer to deal with Perisic cutting in?Unless Shaw is injured that’s a massive slap in the face.
I haven't heard anything about an injury. Do you know something?He might be injured.
Sterling has been shit though and Grealish just back from injury. Also Rashford experienced.Hardly in form is he!!
Foden, Grealish and Sancho are in better form than Rashford and Sterling.Sterling over Grealish, Sancho or Rashford is a terrible choice. Hell, if we're going based on how good their seasons are, the quality of player, then it should be Sancho and Grealish. If we're picking for counter attacking it should be Rashford and Sancho.
