No subject 14:25 - Sep 1 with 469 views | GenericIpswichMan | So until this weekend I actually had no idea that the Nations League started up again this weekend. Having looked through the England squad I am really not sure what side Southgate is going to put out for this one. Whilst appreciating that it's not what we would classify as a 'major tournament' I think England take the competition relatively seriously and will try and field almost a full strength side. I think he will change a few things for the Denmark game but I'm interested in what people think he will do. I can see a team like this... GK - Pickford RB - TAA LB - Trippier (I think he can play there in the absence of a natural lb) CB - Gomez CB - Mings CM - Dier CM - Mount CM - Foden CF - Kane CF - Sancho CF - Sterling I'd like to see Ings given some decent game time as well if possible, considering his presence and achievements this past season. | | | | |

Not saying that's what I'd do though, I do also have a fear Southgate will go for a 5-2-3 system, to make up for our lack of experienced midfielders. I would start Pope in goal ahead of Pickford, but I expect Southgate to stick with Pickford | |

Normally I would agree that Rice would get the nod over Dier, but I read he has had zero first team involvement in pre-season which is why I think Dier will start. Like you I would opt for Pope (or Henderson) in goal ahead of Pickford, but I think Pickford will get the nod because he delivers in an England shirt. Ward-Prowse on reflection may be a better option on reflection, otherwise that midfield looks way too attacking!!. Just hope Keane doesnt start, really dont rate hi! | | | |
