With the obvious caveat that.... on 15:56 - Jun 26 with 3155 views | Bloots | ...I hope there is nothing serious going on in his personal life, this might be the "break" that Slothgate needs. Potentially gives him the opportunity to mix the attackers up a bit and not lose any face over it. Might be a classic case of stumbling over a formation change that works. Maybe. Or he'll just stick another holding midfielder in, who knows. |  |

If he's back on Sunday surely means he's out for the Belgium / Netherlands / Romania etc game, as he won't have trained? Possible this could mean England luck into a formation that works, but maybe that's wishful thinking! |  | |  |

Foden is our best No10, and even out of position was the only starter making things happen last night. |  |

To be fair, if you are earning £300k per week, you are in a great position to start a family at a young age. |  |

It didn't say he's back ON Sunday. It said he will be back BY Sunday. I'd imagine he'll be back on Friday. |  |

In fairness to him we don't know if this is a premature birth or if his partner has developed unexpected complications. Hopefully not. BTW, I thought he was one of our better players last night. |  |

If it’s their third, Southgate would have been better sending Pickford. Or better still Ben Foakes. |  |

Gareth MM Southgate will now be able to play Rice, Trent and Gallagher. |  | |  |

Happened to SBR in Mexico 86 when Bryan Robson dislocated his shoulder and Butch Wilkins got sent off. We came alive after that. |  |
