Group C: Slovenia, Denmark, Serbia, England

[Amokachi1995]

Not keen on Alexander Arnold in midfield. Would miles prefer mainoo or gallacher. Not even because he's RS.

Could make a strong case for him playing fullback in the group matches.

 

[Nymzee]

I want us to do well but really hope Alexander-Arnold gets torn a new one and then people will shut up about shoehorning him into the team.

 

[No Alla Violenza]

Guehi and Stones. Trent in midfield. A lot for Rice to marshall. Reckon Foden Bellingham Saka is the most expensive midfield forward three in the entire tournament?

You would think Foden, Bellingham and Saka would be enough to beat most teams, regardless of who’s at CB

 

[Eggs]

Strong 11 - still think Branthwaite should have been the starter next to Stones.

….the benefit of Branthwaite is how he covers the LB position, it’s no coincidence Mykolenko looks miles better since he came in and England look weak on that flank.

 

[Billy Dean]

Dont like TAA in midfield either TBH. Was very unconvincing in that position in qualifying. Let’s see how it goes. I’d probably have started with Gallagher

I'd of had Bellingham next to rice given the attacking options we've got. As opposed to shoe horning da best right back in da werld into midfield.

He always looks so awkward in midfield, I dunno why the media are still trying to force him in there just because he can boot the ball dead far.

 

[Tommy Chong]

Denmark and Serbia favourites to qualify?

I got some bad news for you mate.

I consulted my magic 8 ball and asked it this question 3 times.

2x You can rely on it.
1x It is decidedly so.

Make of that what you will...

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Absolutely boggles the mind seeing Guehi in there starting ahead of Tarky or Branthwaite.

Also surely Bellingham deeper with Palmer in the #10 is better than shoehorning Trent in.

 

[Efcjake]

Alexander Arnold is gonna be the whipping boy for this tournament

And I am very much looking forward to that.

 

[BainesontoastNEW]

He's actually going with Alexander-Arnold in midfield.

Needs more cowb...ranthwaite.

Branthwaite should have gone over him and I say that with 0 bias

 

[COYBL25]

Southgate deffo has his favourites.

 

[Billy Dean]

Guehi is a good player IMO

 

[Papa Shango]

Guehi is a good player IMO

Yeah he is, I know we all want Branthwaite but Guehi is decent himself.
