Kalvin Phillips is starting. Yeah he's good, and I think definitely England potential going forward, but it proves that players are picked on the club, not form. ****ing joke. If he had been in Fulham or West Brom's team, he wouldn't be in the England squad. Christ, if he played for us in PL on the regular he wouldn't get called up, considering we seemingly weren't allowed an England callup despite Davies, Huddlestone, Livermore, etc. ****ing state of the starting XI too - 3cbs with two holding mids. So uninspiring. What does Grealish have to ****ing do? How is Pickford still first choice? Trippier at LB? You'd think Southgate would ****ing try to be more positive after the Iceland game. I'm getting a little concerned about these choices after what has been a great time watching England, but since the World Cup he's been getting slowly more baffling in his tactical choices and callups.
Boom! Found a sports bar in the frozen wastelands that has it on! Only £13 for a small glass of ****ty red wine. Result tbh
This is a midfield to get the nations trembling their knees in fear .. Rice .. Dier .. and Phillips ! Fk me god help us
We've got that attacking talent... and we're playing long ball. **** sake Southgate, what is wrong with you?
Well that was impressive ... totally innefective midfield .. i sometimes wonder what goes through this blokes mind when picking shyte like that .. come Gareth shake it up man
HT 0-0 Shock horror - England's midfield is non existent an incapable of making a forward pass, meaning we're doing nothing but punting the ball forward. Absolutely awful tactics and selection from Southgate, but there's no surprise there. Absolute joke. The Yorkshire Pirlo as they keep calling him (and I keep throwing up each time) has been well out of depth... almost like a player who hasn't played at the highest level, eh? Get Grealish on, for ****s sake. Some creativity. Denmark will win this if it carries on as is.
