Dr Gloom 2,814 Posted May 16, 2016 Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 (edited) http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/36163625 i'd go for something like this, based on form this year, though it'll never happen - sterling, rooney and milner are all bound to start. he'll probably start henderson or Wilshire too. i suppose stones has been a bit shit of late but we're not exactly blessed with loads of options at the back.

Dr Gloom 2,814 Posted May 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 going through the players exposes the paucity of options. i'm all for giving youth a chance at the expense of the likes of rooney and milner, but i can't see us going far in the tournament.

Holden McGroin 18 Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 Its top heavy with central midfielders. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew 863 Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 I think he's going for a diamond with 3 central mids and Kane/vardy up front with Rooney behind Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dr Gloom 2,814 Posted May 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 If he starts Rooney ahead of Ali he wants his head checked. Only three central defenders in the squad too. I guess he's thinking Dier could be the fourth choice. Playing with fire as it's obvious one of them will get injured now. Weird that a strong central defence used to be our strong point.

Andrew 863 Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 Alli, Dier and Drinkwater as central midfield? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dr Gloom 2,814 Posted May 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 Alli, Dier and Drinkwater as central midfield? if you're going on form, then yes. those are the best three of the season. so no doubt it'll be milner, wilshire and henderson Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Howay 2,087 Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 I can't believe he's going to take Wilshere . How many games has the pisshead even played this season? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Howay 2,087 Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 started 1 :lol: Bet he done absolutely fuck all in that one start as well. To be honest the bloke has done largely fuck all apart from be injured for years, I'm not the biggest fan of Mark Noble but you'd be irate if you were someone like him on the cusp of the England squad and you lose out to someone that has barely made 10 appearances since the World Cup.

Tooj 16 Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 Vardy on the wing? Howay Gloom. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew 863 Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 Hodgsons done that with him before hasn't he? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dr Gloom 2,814 Posted May 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 Yeah, more drifting inside and playing on the shoulder. Second striker when we attack but he sits on the pocket when defend. The width has to come from the full backs in that formation Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dr Gloom 2,814 Posted May 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 Or that lineup could be more of a 4-3-3 with Townsend and Vardy down the channels and Kane trough the middle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dr Gloom 2,814 Posted May 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 The only other way to accommodate Vardy and Kane, and I think you have to start both, is playing and old fashioned 4-4-2. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Holden McGroin 18 Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 Playing players out of the position they have excelled in this season wont get the best out of them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dr Gloom 2,814 Posted May 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 alright then wankers, here it is i was trying to find way to get dier, drinkwater and ali into the same midfield while playing vardy and kane in the same team. vardy did well for hodgson from that postition already but if you play both of them as out and out forwards then drinkwater has to be sacrificed. probably for sterling, which is annoying as he's been gash this season.

Holden McGroin 18 Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 Stones has been awful this season as well. I would not start him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
