scram Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Don't understand why he's being booed - he's not a London based player where the allegiances can spill over - he's not Beckham who was almost singlehandedly blamed for us exiting France 98 - even then the booing and abuse was disgraceful Dont know what Maguire gets up to on social media but on TV and in print he comes across well to me Just not that good a player for the position he is in though it should be said he's just had a good euro's and can't see why he would be dropped if his form holds for England 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Tbf to Maguire, he's not exactly the only England player who isn't great for their club but usually puts in a good display in a national shirt. Him, Pickford, Luke Shaw are all having poor to indifferent seasons at club level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyline Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Bit late to the party here. But how good can Bellingham be? 18 Years Old, already has almost 100 senior appearances to his name with more than half of those for a Champions League team. Looks like he oozes confidence and playing well above his age. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think that him and Rice (who is another excellent player) could be our midfield for the next 10 or so years. Not bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Phil Foden too, who I also like the look of but he's more of the flair player, advanced midfield type. Rice and Bellingham the midfield generals. But Bellingham just seems something else... Captain material, bossing the field, a winner. He plays with all those experienced pro's and is the one calling the shots, you can see him dictating the play... at 18! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fudge27 Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 And as importantly, group a to face off against in round of 16. About as good as could be expected a draw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screen Door Slams Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 If all goes to plan it could be France in the quarter final........................may as well get rid of them early 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screen Door Slams Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 (edited) Rice , Bellingham and Foden for me behind Kane , Sterling and Grealish....................maybe Phillips or Henderson for Bellingham against the better sides. Would also consider a square peg in a round hole as I think Walker and James are the stand out full backs. Think mason Mount could be Southgate`s achilles heel.................don`t get me wrong , I think he is a terrific young player , but he seems determined to shoehorn him into every line up.

Were now at a stage to play 4-2-3-1,4-3-3 or 3-4-3/3-5-2 with the squad. Can see us going 3 at the back again. Kane, Sterling/Sancho Foden/Saka/Grealish Hopefully Mount counted more as a CM with Bellingham, Rice, Henderson and Phillips Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SallyCinnamon Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Pickford, Pope, Ramsdale James, Alexander-Arnold, Walker, Stones, Maguire, White, Tomori, Chilwell, Shaw Rice, Henderson, Bellingham, Ward-Prowse, Mount, Grealish, Saka, Foden, Maddison, Sancho Sterling, Kane, Abraham, Watkins This would be the squad I’d take at the moment. I think Maddison is criminally overlooked for England. His goals and assists record is up there with the very best in the Premier League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fudge27 Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Be back to 23 this year surely? My 23 atm would be Pickford, Ramsdale, Pope James, TAA, Walker, White, Maguire, Stones, Guehi, Shaw, Chilwell Rice, Bellingham, Henderson, Mount, Phillips Grealish, Foden, Sancho, Kane, Sterling, Saka If it is 26 then the extra 3 would be Ward Prowse, Abraham and Smith-Rowe/Coady Rashford has fallen off a cliff, Gomez and Tomoroi not a million miles away defensively, Don't see how Maddison fits the England team. Calvert-Lewin not been at it when not injured. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The only way is S6 Posted April 4, 2022 Author Share Posted April 4, 2022 Rashford shouldn’t be anywhere near the WC squad. Unless he’s in charge of catering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fudge27 Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Think the squad is pretty much bang in from Southgate. Shaw and Chilwell missing (injury and form),. Smith-Rowe and Calvert-Lewin probably next caps off the rank, but overall good squad for me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good squad. Plenty of energy & talent. On a side note, Germany away in Munich on 7th June is the first proper away match since pre-Covid. I know our fans have bought plenty of tickets in the home areas, due to our allocation of only 3,500. Fingers crossed everyone behaves. A Tuesday away fixture is less appealing for travel / work I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Crazy that Maddison doesn’t get in to the squad. Very very good player that can score and create. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
