England team for Sunday... this may be controversial... 08:50 - Jun 26 with 971 views | pointofblue | Pickford Walker - Stones - Guehi - Trippier Rice - Mainoo Saka - Foden - Gordon Kane I so nearly put Palmer on the right and Watkins up top, but thought Saka would give us more width and Kane did provide a couple of moments yesterday. Foden has looked far brighter than Bellingham over the past two games, and it does feel like a Gerrard/Lampard situation where, at most, only one turns up in any given game when being played together. I'd prefer Walker on the right and Shaw on the left but no idea if the latter is ready to start. The above is based on us playing the Netherlands, Belgium or Ukraine. If we face Slovakia or Romania I'd go for Alexander-Arnold on the right and Walker on the left. And my most controversial point of all - people talk about a lack of Grealish, but I think we miss Henderson. At least he has experience of playing alongside Rice and is happy to sit back, letting the Arsenal man go forward. As it is, we're under utilising him too. This is completely in hindsight though; I appreciated where Southgate was coming from when the squad was picked. | |

I quite liked Ian Wright's suggestion last night of Saka at left back (if we play someone who'll defend against us), obviously he'd have to play it like Davis plays left back for us, that way Foden can come inside and be a second number 10 alongside Bellingham/Palmer | |

Pickford Walker - Stones - Guehi - Gomez Mainoo - Rice Palmer - Foden - Gordon Kane Think I would make these changes, yes controversial not starting Bellingham but he's been poor and I think he has the sort of mentality to want to prove a point when he does come on | |

So... Ramsdale (e.g.) Walker - Stones - Guehi - Alexander-Arnold Rice - Gallagher Saka - Bellingham - Palmer Watkins Not sure whether Gallagher did enough yesterday to warrant and start, and we're dropping our best attacking starter from the last two games? | |

Kane needs to know he is going to be substituted around 60 minute mark then perhaps he wouldn’t pace himself so much. | |
