England team for Sunday... this may be controversial... 08:50 - Jun 26 with 971 viewspointofblue

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.

Poll: Who would you play at right centre back on Saturday?

I would leave out Pickford , Kane, Trippier, Foden , Mainoo . Replace them with Gomez, Alexander-Arnold , Watkins, Palmer and any other goalkeeper !

Poll: who do you see as next manager ?

Bellingham's been poor the last couple of games so dropping/resting him would be fair enough.

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

Bellingham - Rice
Saka - Foden - Gordon
Kane

Should have been this from game 1, and we should have taken more than one injured left back.

Pickford

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.

England team McKenna-style (but flipped):

Pickford (Hladky)
Trent (Davis) Dunk (Burgess) Stones (Woolf) Guehi (Tuanzebe)
Rice (Morsy) Mainoo (Luongo)
Foden (Hutch) Bellingham (Chaplin) Saka (Burns)
Kane (Hirst)

Won't happen when we move into knockout stages though, can't afford not to have him on for pens !
