Ellis Rimmer Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 We have so many player's in Harvey Barnes position, though he's a good player I am not sure he's done enough to overtake the others yet. I wouldn't be surprised if this lad at Bayern Munich opted for Germany since we're gonna be overwhelmed with talent in this area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cut to the sidelines where a midfielder is coming on and Motson basically trying to claim he hadn't seen it and he really knew what he was talking about.

danblakemore Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 I wonder why he have a massive depth of the number 10 role, but little to no central defenders? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think antonio has been unlucky with injuries or could have been involved more over the last few years agree its too late for him now though shame really. Godfrey is a good shout we have a real shortage of decent centre halfs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreshOwl Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 You just know Southgate is going to persist with his favourites 2 DM’s in Henderson and Rice when it should just be one of them. So we’ll probably only see 1 of Foden, Grealish & Maddison in the starting line up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I already knew he had made that choice and was thinking he picked them over us because we have too many options in that area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheriwozgod Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Southgate REALLY needs to ditch this 3-4-3 formation as it is stifling us. It is a formation designed to try and disguise our weakness (central defence) , rather than accentuate our strength (a wealth of attacking talent) He needs to adopt a 4-2-3-1 or even a 4-1-4-1 depending on the opposition, granted that may make us a bit more porous , but it will also make us a real threat against anybody.............................we have no world class centre halves so just pick your favoured two , give em a little protection with a defensive midfielder and concentrate on attack. We can argue over the actual personnel but something like ; Pope James Maguire Mings Chilwell Rice Sterling Foden Mount Grealish Kane When we play someone like a France or Belgium you could Henderson in there instead of one of the attacking midfielders. Playing this awful 3-4-3 means some of our most creative talent will be kicking their heels. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bannofan Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Can't stand Declan Rice, just nowhere near good enough on the ball for that position. Exactly the type of player that holds England back at the very top level. I think Southgate's problem is selecting the starters from an incredible amount of attacking talent. He needs to find his first choice centre halfs as well, and admit that Harry Maguire isn't the solid, automatic choice he likes to think he is.

He's a good defensive midfielder, ever present in a good West Ham side. With the amount of attacking options we have they should be able to create Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
