    Job done.

    Shouldn’t have been that edgy but win is a win and we are already one foot through.

    Not that it was in doubt like.

    Grealish for Mount (who I do rate, just not as influencial), and we be sound.

    CB wise, I really hope Konsa gets a chance, big, athletic, bit of pace v the rest. Been a monster for Villa this season.

    Pickford
    Walker Stones Konsa Shaw
    Rice Grealish Mount
    Foden Sterling
    Kane

    That would be my first 11, you don’t need 2 holding with Rice the lad is exceptional and covers all the ground.

    Teams couldn’t live with that going forward but Southgate wouldn’t ****ing dare pick that side.

    The options on the bench would be magnificent as well.

    There’s a tournament winning side there. The dickhead won’t pick it though.

    Fixed it for you :emoticon-0105-wink:. But aye, loads of options for him. We shouldn't be struggling past Poland at home that's for sure.

    Looks large enough to generate it's own magnetic field so good chance it might do.

    Shaw is a far better player than Chilwell, Haway man!

    Foden is left footed for balance, one of the key reasons we have been one dimensional for years is a lack of left footed talent, now we have one.

    I prefer Rashford as a forward and he isn’t displacing Kane.

    Coady I would happily go with, really do like and rate the lad.

    Either of those look like exciting, goal scoring sides though aye?

    I'd bin off Sterling. Being fast means **** all if you cant do anything with it. He's had a poor 3 games.

    For me though I feel something is missing from midfield it would be:

    Pickford
    James Stones Maguire Shaw
    Rice Henderson Mount
    Grealish Sterling
    Kane

    I do like Bellingham and can see him replacing Rice or Henderson in my midfield but he needs games and really thought he might have seen more over this few games

    He seems to be trying too hard to do something, but you can’t argue the lads quality and he ties defenders up. Sancho isn’t a bad backup but Sterling is a shoe in for me.

    I don’t think it’s unreasonable to argue against him though, which is not like me I’m normally quite a ****er insisting I’m right <laugh>

    I like that side. James has a real chance of being the first choice RB for a lot of years.

    Hendo won’t be fit, he might be uninjured but he won’t be fit and we can’t try and beat France or Holland with a passenger.

    Dont get me wrong, the lad has been in my fantasy football team consistently. I just think he's had a pretty shocking couple of months. His finishing and final ball have been shocking. Drives me up the wall.

    Aye I get that, he’s always had that about him to be fair. But even when he’s having a mare he’s pulling people out and he’s getting in positions. I think he’s just got that bit about him that’s gonna have any opponent wary, so he’s a starter for me.

    Absolutely. Not sure Southgate knows how to deal with all that talent though. <laugh>

    He most certainly doesn’t.

    Henderson is a true captain and when fit should be in there but there is a chance he won't be fit. Thats why I would have liked to have seen more of Bellingham. He looks a hell of a player at 17

    It’s good not been able to pick the correct team between us
    Cause years gone by we new exactly what the team would be
    It’s great to have so many world class players to pick from
    We will have a great squad

    I don’t think any player should be a back up
    No player should be certain of his place
    Competition for all places
    That’s why we pick the very best for our country
