    What makes you think Grealish and Gordon are better than Eze and Rashford then? Any evidence to back it up other than your tinted 20/20 vision?

    I'd also say if a space opened up you'd go Grealish over Gordon. Think if Sancho hadn't been mismanaged by Man U the last few years I'd have him up there and Gordon stuck at Benton over the internationals.

    Sancho would be ideal on the right wing as back up to Saka.
    Think issue with Grealish is that he's not an out and out winger like Gordon and Eze. Sorry but can't stand Rashford.

    Wonder where this starting England team would finish in the Prem? Front 4 are good, but rest is gash.

    England as a country are nothing more than a fallen empire being phased out by the new world with all its power and might.

    Kind of torn on this one - would like Howe as England manager - think he'd be great at it and he seems to be plateauing with Newcastle currently. All of our pressure and intensity seem to have fallen through the floor despite probably having the best squad available to him since he arrived (bar Botman missing). While he's done well, the last 18 months were as good as it's ever got for him, CL qualification and a Cup final. Does it get better for him at NUFC?

    Equally think it's only a matter of time until things click for us and we start putting in performances again and maybe he can continue to break down the ceilings he has and push higher, Cup wins, regular CL qualification, title challenges?

    Pretty startling though that the two biggest names linked to England have exactly 2 trophies between them - the Championship and the Swedish Cup...
