How can Loftus cheek be selected over Wilshere ffs . Given the **** he's been saying about him all year, it seems like Southgate was never planning to include him, regardless of how well he played. It's not like we've got an abundance of central midfielders in the squad anyway. If you're not going to select Wilshere, at least select someone like Shelvey.
This tournament will be horrendous
you're joking right?
no
take it you haven't watched RLC this season then? People love to say that this midfield has "no creativity", but rlc definitely is creative. He can run at a defence with power, pick out a long ball and play anywhere across midfield. I'd take Wilshere as well granted but to call out loftus-cheek being in is ridiculous.
Watch this, I know you can't exactly base a player off YouTube vids but having watched him all season he's genuinely class

I'm not calling out Loftus Cheek as such, I actually don't have a problem with him being in the squad. I'd rather have taken Wilshere over one of the defenders. The issue is that Southgate's left out our best midfielder for no acceptable reason, and the spot's been filled by someone with no international experience. it's just another nail in the Wilshere coffin

Defensive options are ridiculous. Delph, Young, Walker, Rose, TAA, Trippier. Wy do we need so many full backs?

Starting to think you might be the actual Loftus.....
I think Young has to start for England, even if it's just for his ability from set-pieces. Tbh, I don't see us scoring another way so we may as well select him.
Harry Kane looks appalling right now, he is lucky that the Nigerian goalkeeper was up with the clouds when he finally hit the target. Donkey Dier also looks abysmal. These two will let us down this summer.

It's just a slight shame that he absolutely no left foot at all. I did like the good delivery of both wing backs, but Young just cuts back inside every single time. If he could put a cross in with his left from time to time, he'd be tip top.
Match was pretty good last night. Rashford was excellent and stated a good case for himself - I still think Sterling starts though against Tunisia.
Line-up prediction:
Pickford
Walker - Stones - Cahill
Trippier - - - Henderson - - - Rose
Dele - - - Lingard
Sterling - Kane
Against Panama I think while see Rashford, Young, Maguire come in for Sterling, Rose, Cahill. Then against Belgium I think it will be Dier rather than Henderson, with Delph alongside him (one of Dele or Lingard drops to the bench). And if we have 6 points by then, I'd happily see Kane rested for the last 16 and Vardy play up with Sterling.
Rated E For Everyone.

agreed. bad role model for the young lads to look up to
This
Don't think kane deserved it tbh
At least Henderson didn't get it I suppose
Word is, the armband was tossed to someone else, but because it nicked Kane's shoulder, he claimed it.
agreed.
Meh. Decent attempt, I guess.
He'll be happy regardless of how well England do as long as he gets the golden boot.
Rather have anyone but him and henderson tbh
What do you guys think after the first 5 mins
Alli looks good though.

I'd happily see something along these lines
Walker-Stones-Cahill
Trippier-Henderson/Dier-Alli-Rose
Sterling
Rashford-Kane
but id swap stones and cahill around
Walker - Stones - Cahill
Trippier - Henderson - Rose
Sterling - Alli
Kane - Vardy
Walker - Stones - Cahill - Maguire - Young
Henderson - Alli - Dier
Lingard
Vardy Sterling
