Holden McGroin 6430 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 (edited) Maddison and Curtis Jones binned off already. Rumours of Quansah as well. Trafford will no doubt get the news soon so that leaves 3. We dont need 3 left wingers so Ezra or Grealish surely will be left. Dunk or Branthwaite must be on the chopping line. Ivan Toney?

wykikitoon 19703 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 Dunk needs chopping, he had a cracking start to the season. Then from mid onwards he slumped to fuck. Branthwaite deserves it IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holden McGroin 6430 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 Two left for the chop. Trafford seems obvious but he might just take him for the experience instead of Henderson. Then one more.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 6937 Posted June 6 Author Share Posted June 6 Dunk, Guehi and Konsa being 3/4 of our CBs is worrying. Surely Smalling or Tomori were worth a spot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holden McGroin 6430 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 I wouldn’t mind him playing Walker and Stones as CBs. With Trent at RB and Gomez at left back (if Shaw isn’t fit). Especially in the group matches where teams will need breaking down. Even though I love him, Trippier shouldn’t be there in my opinion. He doesn’t have form or fitness.

I agree - Bellingham is down as a forward rather than midfielder in the squad list which probably nods to how Southgate sets them up with Bellingham as his number 10 and foden out wide. I think it’s a mistake. I’d much rather see Gordon or Eze in the side than Connor Gallagher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wykikitoon 19703 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 I would have Branthwaite in over Dunk. Think he's been a lot more consistent this season. Wharton I think on recent form deserves his place, but it feels a little too heavy on CDM players? MGW I would have said deserves a chance? Think Trafford deserves his place over Henderson, I sort of understand him selecting Ramsdale. Toney, has he been selected for pens? Who else would be selected?

Ayatollah Hermione 13741 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 I’m not sure Southgate has ever fully fancied Grealish tbh and he’s now got good reason not to take him. Surprised with no Maguire but you suspect that’ll be the end of his international career now. All in all, the squad is as expected; chocka with attacking talent and very threadbare with quality at the back. You’re going to need an unbelievable tournament from Pickford, Stones and Walker to win it. Probably from Rice as well since he’s going to be going backwards more than forwards 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was fit he would have gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 16930 Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 I’m not sure Southgate particularly fancies Foden either tbh.. Gallagher might start alongside Rice… If that’s the case and if Southgate grows a pair and ignores the press AG might just get the LW spot… one thing is for sure it would be a mistake to shoehorn Bellingham and Foden in… unless it’s Saka who makes way? 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just play Rice in front of the defence and let Foden and Bellingham work between them when to hang back and push up. They are both intelligent players and operate better centrally. that way you can accommodate Gordon wide left to stretch their defence and create opportunities. He may as well go for broke, as no one is expecting England to attack games. He won’t do this though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am surprised he chose Eze over him. Eze is dangerous but holds onto the ball far too long. Edited June 7 by Holden McGroin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
