Take it back about Bellingham. Not about maguire though, he can get in the bin

LOL

good goal

That goal started with Maguire losing the ball in the CF position My god, what does he have to do to be dropped.

If in doubt, get the rest of the gang on the pitch. Mount and Saka.

Giving the ball away was hilarious. Still, he MUST be picked

Maguire gives away a penalty - shocker

Does not really answer the question, given how appalling England are (and have been for a while)

fecking awful ball by Maguire

I know he is young, but has Bellingham ever played well for England, noting the hype?

Guess this is Southagte's first 11 (bar Pickford)

Southgate is throwing away the traits that made him a success. Shame, he is a good bloke but he is shot

Maguire was good for England 18 months ago, so......... It is shite like that which will get Southgate in the mire

Good game on Sky. Top of League 1. Plymouth winning 2-1

out of interest, how many do you know?

On paper, Southgate has achieved brilliant results in the main. But, we were not particularly good at the Euro's despite getting to the final. Both the Euros and the World Cup came with favourable routes to the latter stages, with many of the usual big teams being under-par. Many of those big teams have sorted out their shitz, so god knows now. He's a relatively negative / risk averse manager and wedded to a group of players for the last 2-3 years. He is seemingly ignoring any club form, and sticking by said players. Which has been the un-dooing of many England managers before him. Pickford, Maguire, Shaw, Trippier, Walker, Rice, Sterling, Phillips, Kane and Saka, all picked no matter what. Some of those, I wonder if they deserve their place in the squad/starting 11. (I mean, we had 6 fullbacks in the squad and started with Saka on the left). Throw in his insistence on having 3-4 RBs in a squad/10-12 defenders, which is quite frankly bizarre. Kane rarely does not play 90 mins, so we have no idea if Abraham/Toney/whoever could step up, bar the odd game/30 mins they may get. Does Sterling have to play every game? He is not world class as many parrots in the media say, and when is stinks, he really does. Is Grealish really better than Maddison?

Got to laugh. Many people endorse the general squad picked, as these players "don't let England down". How is that working out? Southgate is rooted to around 8 of this starting 11, no matter what.

This is Southgate being "ruthless"

That's right. Saka who plays as a right-wide forward for Arsenal. great stuff

Pellegrino was fucking shit

No i dont, I just have a different view - which used to be perfectly OK

Slightly off topic….

What does it matter who anyone here suggests who would come in?

answers to what?
