Unusual to have an England game on a Monday but has to be better than the rubbish played against norway. No Sturridge so will rickie get a chance?
England had a lot of possession against Norway, but found it hard to get through a team determined to defend. Switzerland will come out more, which may suit us better, although the Swiss are certainly no mugs. I'm going for an England win at 2-1, especially if they paid attention to what Harrison Reed showed them
Looking at the fixtures, a fair few could be playing Serbia versus France in a friendly could see Tadic & Schneiderlin face off Both Irish sides are playing, Poland are at Gibraltar and Romania are at Greece(if Gardos got selected)
Must say that Chambers should be nowhere near the full England team, but he is and should play RB instead of Stones who adds 0 down the wings. Drop Wilshire for Milner and even if Sturrige is fit, drop him for Rickie and play a front 4 of Rickie uptop with Welbeck, Stirling and Shrek. The Swiss are going to sit back so hopefully we will have a plan B
Neither of the should be at RB. Clyne should be there. What did Roy say about Clyney last season..? He was in the England management team's thoughts, I believe. Which is going to get him a lot of games.
please log in to view this image Stats show Clyne is better than the players selected ahead of him, but we all knew that. Anyway, I probably watched every England match in the last couple of year, but I don't intend to waste any more of my time watching a side managed by that fossil Roy Hodgson. He would make an average side out of Germany.
NI have just scored a pretty good goal. Davis' attitude is too rate considering his teammates are just a million miles away from him in terms of ability. Great positivity and leadership
That Squawka model is quite impressive. Had a look myself, and even over the first 3 league games of the season, Clyne is carving out a new stats lead. Hodgson must think Fonte is one heck of a CB. We know he is, but he can't do Nat's job as well.
And they were good value for it too. Sadly only for 4 minutes however. 1-2 now. Scotland would give England a very good game indeed on this showing. Wee Gordon has got them playing very well.
Scotland's squad against Germany: Scotland 01 Marshall 02 Hutton 04 Martin 05 Hanley 03 Whittaker 08 Mulgrew 07 Fletcher (McArthur - 58' ) 10 Bannan (Fletcher - 58' ) 11 Anya 09 Naismith (Maloney - 82' ) 06 Morrison England against Norway: England 01 Hart 03 Baines 06 Jones 02 Stones (Chambers - 81' ) 05 Cahill (Jagielka - 84' ) 07 Wilshere (Milner - 69' ) 11 Sterling 04 Henderson 08 Oxlade-Chamberlain (Delph - 69' ) 10 Rooney (Welbeck - 70' ) 09 Sturridge (Lambert - 89' ) Compare.
