[QUOTE="Bada-Bing!, post: 1181806, member: 70552"] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/13102366/england-euros-squad-ivan-toney-and-kobbie-mainoo-among-the-winners-from-march-friendlies-but-lewis-dunk-and-jordan-henderson-hopes-hit[/URL] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/68668152[/URL] British media usual bigging up England’s chances of Euros but I didn’t see much of contenders in the last two friendlies or even during the qualifying, especially in the away matches. Again injuries from playing too many games/training for them will be a factor, but I was looking for how England passed between the lines v top opposition which has always been a problem for England teams v top opposition. Mainoo is a big find and Southgate has nothing to lose starting him alongside Rice. He’s fearless and he won’t win the big games playing Henderson or Phillips.Gallagher gave the ball Away too much v Brazil. Still, England always seem have a defensive blunder in them. Pickford for all his decent saves, his distribution from the back is not of the highest quality. Southgate’s First choice Back 4 was aging, picking up injuries and Southgate should have found depth long time before instead of wasting minutes on playing them in friendlies ie Maguire v Scotland last year. I’d be surprised if they all start and finish the tournament in Germany. [/QUOTE]
