He basically just looks like an upgrade on Maguire. Which we all know he is. It's shocking to think Maguire has played so much more than him. And f*** off everyone who says 'but Maguire is great for England'. Dunk would have been better. He's way too good to be playing against Championship players and it shows.
Southgate will certainly be under a lot of pressure not to revert to the old guard/conservative football after this so far. Imo there are no game where we need to play two holding midfielders, nor now to play the likes of Henderson or Maguire. Play to our strengths with the squad we have, as we are tonight.If he replicates that in the second half the masses will be scratching their heads at why he’s not been involved before.
Jesus, wonder what goes on in Southgates head. Very strange decision to play anyone that doesn't play. Seems keen to have one per game.23rd March if my calculations are correct. Also for England.
He's a genius. That shimmy and pass for the first goal almost goes unnoticed. An incredible talent.Bellingham might be one of the best players I’ve ever seen, a true generational talent.
And Dunk is still better![]()
Billy has been totally out of it hasn't he? Not really sure what he's meant to be doing? DM?
Southgate is a man who worries more about opposition players rather than seeing what we have, which is miles clear the best attacking talent we’ve ever had, we are combining the best attacking talent we’ve ever had with the most negative manager we’ve ever had.Southgate will certainly be under a lot of pressure not to revert to the old guard/conservative football after this so far. Imo there are no game where we need to play two holding midfielders, nor now to play the likes of Henderson or Maguire. Play to our strengths with the squad we have, as we are tonight.
A wonderful celebration of mediocrity.Here’s a stunning stat …. Dier …. 49 England caps.
Not just starting XI.So hopefully the proud record of England always winning when there’s a Brighton player in the starting XI will continue.
