Replace Saudi with Panama and that's still pretty dross though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 19736 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 southgate has rightly taken a load of shit, but is he starting to win over the critics? no one expects much, so I think if he just gets them playing with some purpose and intent, he'll have overachieved i like the look of his recent experiment with 3-5-2 and throwing in loads of kids. lineup for first game? ----------------------Pickford ----------Gomez-----Stones---Maguire Walker---------------------------------------Rose ----------------Dier------Loftus-Cheek ------------------------Ali ----------------Kane-----Vardy or Rashford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 12736 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Reckon playing the kids sounds good in theory but not sure they could hack the pressure if they managed to progress. Mind, saying that, neither could the older heads at the last tournaments so I’ve got no idea what to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 19736 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 the last few tournaments have been so turbo shit, if he reverts to the likes of wilshere, sturridge etc it'll be hard to feign interest. throwing in the kids at least gives us a wildcard factor - who knows what could happen if you get a favourable draw?

rogerbarton 24 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 I thought Southgate was an absolutely dreadful appointment, but he's at least called it out how he sees it and given youth a chance (albeit he didn't have a lot of choice). Playing three at the back means we aren't quite as dreadful at centre-half, and Jones, Stones and one other should do a decent job. Was impressed with Gomez the other night. Outside of Alli, Sterling's had a great season so far, I still rate Lallana as a class touch, Loftus-Cheeke looks a great prospect and we could play Rashford as an inside forward too, so I don't think our team is quite as bad as it might seem. That said, we'll probably go out at the group stage after a disappointing draw with Saudi Arabia, so at least there's not much pressure on them.

You're no Iceland England are much better now than 4 years ago whereas I believe Australia are substantially weaker. Anything can happen in the WC though. Form is out the window when certain teams play each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
