To be honest I would rather Southgate had chosen Solanke over Toney for these games. Brentford fans haven't been too pleased with Toney since he came back from his ban, whereas Solanke has 15 league goals this season which is only one less than Watkins in a substantially less good team and his goals per game is pretty much the same. He's quick, strong and makes space for his wingers to come in and get in at goal, I would have liked to see what he could offer ahead of the Euros
Most friendlies are boring but this is enjoyable. Bellingham's naughty foul gives this an edge and with Brazil never normally playing against European opposition it's good stuff with no quality in the box so far.

Wont be surprised if its the first choice team for the Euros
Konsa, Gomez and Maddison on the bench
Surprised Gomez hasn't been given a start - what is Southgate going to learn about Stones/Maguire as a partnership?
