It's really weird to me how more isn't made of Vardys ''retirement'' he should be starting for England.

Totally agree, his team selections are infuriating.

I know i'm biased but AWB, Shaw and Greenwood should be in that squad over some of the tried and tested gash he shoe horns in.

Big nosed dull cnut.
He’d drop Ronaldo given a choice

Taking off Henderson for Winks when we're losing is a favour for Liverpool. Not tactical to change the game, it's bending over for Liverpool and basically saying this game is done.

Is this a thing? Mount's the only one getting any stick because its quite clear he shouldn't be playing. The other likely starters from Chelsea deserve to be there.
Terry, Lampard and Cole were all booed at Wembley at various point and at the start of the season people were going out of there way to compare Lamptey favroubly to James.

Regarding Mount England don't play to his strengths, he's not the player that will single handedly drag a team playing shit over the line. He's a foil type of player who complements star men as opposed to being a star man (even though they play different positions similar to Pedro at Barcelona and to a certain extent with us in the 16/17 title season), he's been shining with us the last few weeks because we've played him in a 433 two 8's system with Havertz, he's been playing with our new recruits and not looked out of place because he's being used correctly.

Stick him in a 443 two 8s with Grealish next to him and Rashford, Kane and Sterling front three you will see a completely different player.

Don't tell us, tell Southgate.

Gotta love the cameraman showing Southgate's Dad support for Mount.. blazes a free kick over, cue camera to Southgate doing an approval clap. Did the same in the first half when he headed the ball from a corner nowhere near the goal in the first half too.

So much average shite in this England squad

Mount, Mings, Saka, Trippier, Pickford.....do we have that many injuries? We must have one of the best pools of players to pick from yet this lot get starts
