[@err4071]

@@Long-Horse Considering foden hasn't been played in his correct position, at least foden leaving and going back to England for family matters will force southgate to start Gordon on the left. As long as Gordon has a great game and effect the game in a positive way with perhaps a assist or something like that, he could hold onto that position solving 1 problem. If that happens and foden does come back it could force southgate into a situation where he cant drop Gordon, so he might actually have to use foden in his favourite position, or use both Bellingham and Foden as rotation players. It could also force southgate to use Bellingham alongside rice, which would free up the 10 position for foden and palmer. If foden doesnt come back, then we still have Bellingham who could actually start playing well or palmer, who might be given a chance as a 10. Foden leaving could actually accidentally fix England and force sothgate to make the right decisions. England might actually start to play at their level.

[@petercampbe11]

Said the point about Pickford during the Denmark game also - so many times, Foden, Rice etc would show for a ball along the floor from pickford, he would ignore and hit long, Kane would jump lose the ball and Denmark would come at us again. At club level big teams DCM show for the ball even with a player on their back, the keeper gives it and the team retain possession. not sure if its cos he plays for Evertona dn Dyche but he looks to hit it long as hard as he possibly can every time.

[@angusfraser5216]

Palmer maino (And gordon when he eventually got on) were the difference makers in my opinion.

One thing i kind ask myself, is why bellingham isnt pulled back to play with Rice, since majority of his career he was playing as CM, played some as DM too, only in real madrid he got to play more forward. So if you'd pair him with rice, you'd have a free slot for Palmer behind kane. Would be definitely worth a shot i think

[@armyvettw1tch535]

Im an England fan... they have some of the best in the world,but cant attack... they pass playing backwards.

[@craigo55555]

Rice isn’t the player to play the first pass into, Wharton or Mainoo would be much more progressive. Rice is good at driving forward with the ball at his feet higher up the pitch, but getting him to make a positive forward pass from his own half doesn’t seem to come as natural to him

[@Lioness_UTV]

Honestly I don't care how its going for other teams as each are dealing with different issues. What concerns me the most is Southgates lack of leadership and vision. I think he is caught like a deer in the headlights when selecting the team. Not taking Grealish is something I didn't understand especially as Jack showed him in the game prior 'exactly' what options he can give Southgate. I am convinced he just doesn't seem to know what he wants - caught betwixt. I don't under estimate that he has real issues to contend with like out of form and tired players that he has to navigate. But his comfortzone is defence, possession and he doesn't quite know how to lead an attacking team, hoping for those moments of natural brilliance that he has relied on his whole England Managerial career.

[@krispeekornflex]

Anyone else feel that the players are TOO professional? They follow what the manager told them to do like zombies, without their own thoughts during the games? Come on, amongst those millionaires, not one of them had the urge to just say to his teammates, "Guys lets try this one play, if we can score a goal from it, we will start playing the game this way, I will take the responsibility getting the scolding from the Manager" ?

It's obvious: Cole Palmer lone striker - he's got a great shot! Eze and Gordon on the wings - they're rapid, direct and go past people. Foden AMF in the number 10 role. Gallagher and Bellingham CDM. Trent, Rice, Guehi and Saka defending and where Pickford hasn't been hitting those short passes, let's get Kobbie Mainoo in goal. Bit of a risk only playing 10 midfielders but I think Guehi's earned his place.

[@redmed10]

Southgate is an ultra safe manager. He sets out teams not to lose. I don't blame him because every England loss is treated as the end of the world. Any mistake is held against that player by other club's fans forever. International football comes down very low in the priorities of Premier league clubs and fans apart from when competitions come round and then they are expected to win every one and when they don't everybody is surprised. This cycle is rather tiresome.

Seeing as England have to play Slovakia now and not the Netherlands, perhaps England can afford to "rest" Bellingham (looks tired), Saka (does not look fit) and Foden (who is away for personal reasons and not back til late). I would try Gordon left wing, Palmer as CAM and Bowen right wing. So far Englands attack has been disjointed, not creating much against so.called "lesser" opposition and general lacking. Putting in Gordon, Palmer and Bowen would mean having 3 players who are direct, who like to run and beat their man (Gordon and Bowen especially who will hug the touchline), who have been in form for their clubs and who will want to put in a shift and impress. They are direct, have pace and can score and more importantly they will be playing IN THEIR BEST POSITIONS. Put Rice and Mainoo behind and freshen things up. It is not rocket science. Just stop experimenting and play players who are in form and in their natural positions in a formation that suits them. Englands problems have been the imbalance in first eleven, players looking tired or players just out of form and Southgate has to stop being so stubborn and freshen it up. Things were so bad against Slovenia Italian TV said England were like "Snails on holiday" there was so little movement and desire.

SURELY this has been a master plan to make teams underrestimate us in the knockouts when we play full strength and with proper width and depth where we suddenly start playing with creativity like we've seen in the final 2 minutes of each of the group games.
