That side is begging for Hendo in midfield. If he’s fit, then Southgate is a fucking tool.

Any chance England could get knocked out tonight? Trying to work out if it’s worth watching.

5846

No they are qualified already.

None. They will finish at least third.

I would recommend watching Scotland. There is more on the line.

I don’t think it is possible for England not to go through now.

Given how dull England were against Scotland, when there was a reason to play, you know tonight is going to be unbearably gutless and uninspired, considering Southgate will probably prefer a 2nd place finish.

I’d feel bad for the young, talented, creative players in the squad, being lumbered with this personality blackhole, but they’re all cunts anyway.

Im fascinated by the continued overlooking of Sancho. Anyone any idea what is going there? I remember having a discussion on here a while back arguing that he was not yet of the stature to be guaranteed to start their games, but even I didn’t think he’d be so badly struggling to get minutes and losing out to players like Saka.

Anyway, Grealish in what looks to be more of a ten/free role is approximating maybe the best way to get something out of this side. People dont like the double pivot, but if we need to have that sort of protection against the good sides then it makes sense to use it in other games as well to help build fluidity. But if we do, it puts an even bigger creative burden on the third member of the group. I like Mount, but I think with some of the stodginess of this side, someone with more 1-1 ability is maybe a better option moving forward.

Come on England!
These youngsters need a win. So glad, Jack is in the starting lineup.
Still, wondering why Jadon hasn’t had a start up, he has earned it.

Also, come on Scotland!

Is Hendo in the starting lineup for England?

Nope, I reckon he must not be fit.

So far im struggling to figure out how they’ve lined up here. It doesnt seem to be just a simple replacement of mount with Grealish.

Is Scotland game not on UK TV?
