Vaj Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 We have gone from an abundance of brilliant number 10’s to now having to decide which one is the least shit at this moment in time. Foden and Palmer having a poor season and have been awful for England for a while. Rogers losing form at the wrong time Bellingham barely kicking a ball for ages Eze sitting on a bench most the season and unfortunately can’t play Tottenham in a World Cup.

Rogers - Palmer - Saka feels like the strongest to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d hope for Gordon - Bellingham - Saka. You can bring Rashford on to run at them late and hopefully Bellingham works hard to dovetail with Kane. I think Saka and Gordon’s positional discipline, speed and drive is the perfect complement to Kane. Also happy to have Bowen, Rogers, Rashford and Solanke as the second wave.

Yeah, I think Rogers is a better player than Gordon and more of a goal threat cutting in from the left onto his right foot. He does a lot of his best work for Villa from wide left positions.

I'd prefer him at AM though, although there's no way Bellingham doesn't start there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Plan A: Kane Gordon Bellingham Saka Plan B: Whoever (Bellingham an option here) Rashford Rogers Palmer Would have Bowen in the mix too. Maybe Eze. Don't see the need to take Foden at all. Not shown anything for England - ever. Had 1 month of good form for City in almost 2 years. Saka has always played for England so would start him. I'd take Palmer but his place is questionable. Needs to show more - positional flexibility is a bonus. LW is wide open too. (haven't watched England in a good while) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtua Stiva Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 I think Bowen would have been a better option through the middle last night. Really, of all the attackers in that team, Foden would be the last one I’d start as a false nine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 (edited) Textbook Gullit like, dripping in irony. Completely misunderstands something, bluntly labels it arrogant, in the process exhibits that very same arrogance he's labelled it as and furthers the stereotype of the Dutch being blunt and arrogant. See also, his views on the Tyne Wear derby not being 'a real derby', or Shearer. Edited April 22 by Kid Icarus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahead of the derby, the 2-1 loss where he left out Shearer and Ferguson, he said that the Tyne-Wear derby wasn't a real derby because it's not in the same city. IIRC he added something along the lines of it not being a big derby either like Inter vs AC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, what a mad world it must be through the lens of Ruud Gullit He's an odd character like. I think he's held his hands up over that and admitted that he just didn't get it at the time and got it wrong, which is what makes him doing this again a head scratcher. I think it's partly down to culture differences particularly with humour in Europe, but you'd think he'd have at least understood by now like.

Rafalove Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Tbf, to Gullit he’s right in that the rest of the continent see it as arrogance. Everytime there’s a tournament, I see complaints. They are Ofcourse wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maguire was 1/4 and shorter odds than BDB to make it earlier today so it's not that reliable. Would absolutely love too see Big Dan Burn get in the squad, think he will, Tuchel likes him. Sky Sports saying he's guaranteed - https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/13546249/england-world-cup-squad-announcement-thomas-tuchels-no-10-dilemma-harry-kanes-deputy-and-the-16-guarantees Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilcline Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Can't wait for the predictable outrage across socials tomorrow from fans of all persuasions that Burn and Jordan Henderson are in the squad despite Tuchel basically saying from the first squad he picked that he'd be keeping them around regardless for their character and leadership qualities Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
