  • Come on England - feel sick already !! 
  • Just feels that both United States and Australia could have pulled off upsets yesterday... I feel like England will oblige

    Would be so much happier if this game wasn't on ITV
  • first pint so already started drinking for this. Lets fucking av it! 
  • Come on England!
  • aren't they missing their two best players and potentially their manager as well tonight?
  • Should be a routine comfortable win. 

    Will Southgate use this as his trial run with 3 at the back or stick to the same formation? 
  • Saka for Foden I'd see as the only change that's needed. 

    Maybe Henderson back out for Mount and go back to the original line up. 
  • I think he'll start Saka on the right and Rashford down the left. I think the midfield 3 will be unchanged. 
    Pickford
    Trippier Stones Maguire Shaw
    Henderson Rice Bellingham
    Saka Kane Rashford
  • I feel like we would have to turn in a real turgid performance and Senegal would need to play out their skin for us to lose. 

    C’mon England, do not fuck this up.

    Be quite happy to see an unchanged team from the Wales game.

    Rashford is in form, and stands a chance of the Golden Boot so seems foolish to drop him - Foden I thought came into his own at long last when played out on the left.

    Part of me would switch to a 3-5-2 now, but take the risk of resting Walker | Henderson so that the nucleolus of the squad are ready for the possibility of France - Would basically give Foden a bit of free reign to drift around Rashford and Kane, almost making it a front two, or front three at times.

    Pickford
    Dier - Stones - Maguire
    Trippier - Rice - Bellingham - Shaw
    Rashford - Kane - Foden

    Bit of a FIFA / Football Manager approach from me though
  • Slight feeling of trepidation but overall feeling confident. 
  • edited December 2022
    Certainly feeling more cautious than most.

    Netherlands haven't been too dissimilar to us this competition and took 85mins, and Mendy fuck up (twice) to find a goal - Dont see tonight being comfortable in the slightest.

    For me: 


                           Pickford

    Tripper - Stones - Maguire - Shaw

                  Bellingham - Rice

    Saka --- Maddison (will be Mount) -- Rashford

                            Kane 
  • For me:

                            Kane 
    Against a team that’s likely to play on the counter and at pace, Walker instead of Trippier for me at RB. Rest I agree with.

    Trippier for the set-pieces which in knockout stages (in the past) tends to be the way we score our goals. 
  • TalkSPORT saying Bellingham may not be starting 
  • I'd start Walker in every game from now on.
    His pace is needed , especially against better teams.

    If we get through this we will need him against France.

    If thats the case, can only imagine us playing 3-5-2, with Henderson and Rice - Unless of course Mount comes back into the squad in his place - Which would be madness
  • Unless he's ill or injured, it is madness to leave out our most talented dynamic midfielder in the first game that actually matters. 
  • 3 pints down. Lets fucking av it! Come on England!

    (btw i will only get worse from here on in.)
  • Bellingham and foden should be starting every game

    (btw i will only get worse from here on in.)
    If I was 3 pints down by 2.30 and carried on drinking I'd be asleep by Kick Off.
    I should have done that on Friday. 
  • • England have not won any of their last ten matches on ITV in normal time
    • 19% win rate in their last 16 games on ITV
    • Since 1996 there's a 39% win rate on ITV, compared to 68% on the BBC

  • 3 pints down. Lets fucking av it! Come on England!

    (btw i will only get worse from here on in.)
    Good effort! Will give it another couple of hours before I venture out.
