not been that impressed tbh, he's been pretty lucky with ricochets off opponents legs to keep possession
Suarez was a genuis at that exact thing, at 1st you thought it was fluke then you realised he did it in purpose.

Maybe saka the same ive not watched enough of him to say
 
Whats a bit disappointing about this for me is, england were already through right. even if they lost tonight So why not just tell the lads go enjoy yourselves and open it up, express yourself.

But nah.

Boro ball

I think England get to play at Wembley if they win the group and I remember @Libby pointing out before, that once we get pass the next game, we get an easier run through?

Who the **** does Henderson think he is?
Since before he even set foot on the pitch he has been trying to tell players where to go and what to do (straight after the managers half time talk) and we have now lost control of midfield <doh>

He's shown it in patches for us, but he found some consistent form with Newcastle and really showed what he can do. He's more a type of midfielder who runs onto balls and creates chances, so he's going to be behind Saka and Smith-Rowe who are ball playing creative midfielders.

I really want to see what he can do for us next season, because as woeful as we were last season, we've managed to bring on a crop of brilliant young players.

Edit : Behind Saka and Smith Rowe in terms of selection I mean.
I think Willock's best position is centre midfielder, bruv. Different position to Saka, I think. @Roy Munson to advise

Yeah, Saka is a wide player, but Willock would be behind Smith Rowe in terms of selection. Willock has also been used on the right for us, so he’s got both Saka and Smith Rowe to contend with.

Still plenty of opportunities for him to get games for us next season though

Notnsure mate but i still would like to see this England team unleashed, chains off.

Perfect game to see what they can do imo but i guess im looking at it from an entertainment angle rather than tactical

Would like to see Rashford after around 70 mins

Want to see a front three with Sterling,
Rashford and Saka
 
Southgate aint into entertainment mate, probably come from the Peter Taylor (U21's) school of coaching, boring football.
Yeh its a shame. And a turn off tbh for us fairweather fans anyway
 
Needs some good game management here from England. No need to throw loads of players forward. Just let Saka and Rashford do the running on the flanks and keep the midfield tight.
