Tbf Gallagher best player on the pitch second halfValleyGary said:I like Gallagher but shows how good Declan Rice is. Absolutely pinnacle to our whole team.1 -
Gallagher isn’t a bad option to have at all. Him and Rice in the middle would be a bastard to play against.
Still hoping to see Rice and Bellingham at some point this year.

Surprised to see Grealish and Foden playing together for England0

Thats how you do it Conor0

We still have 10 potential starters to come in to this team2

Strangely, White looked one of the best players when he went to RWB.supaclive said:Ben White has been very average.Rice has the potential, engine and mind to be a world class player. He’s like a bigger, more physical version of Kante.Agree that even if their club form is crap there’s no way Southgate disrupts a team that has played together for 4+ years now when it comes to tournament football.1 -
Atmosphere at game was crap, Mount and KWP rubbish. Motm Pickford.0

On the way home from Wembley.Atmosphere wasn’t too bad until the 2nd half and all the paper airplane/Mexican wave shite started.Conor Gallagher was superb, best player on the pitch for me.
Agree that Ben White looked surprisingly good going forward on the right.1 -
See, I thought KWP did a decent job. Watching on the tv mind.cafcsinger said:Atmosphere at game was crap, Mount and KWP rubbish. Motm Pickford.1 -
Been a regular watching England the last few years and took my lad for the first time…. It’s what breaks my heart with Charlton. A 13 yr old living in Surrey has no interest in watching us but I can bond with him watching Kane, Foden, Rice etc….I still think our first choice team can win the World Cup. With that formation, would love to see:
Pickford
TAA
Shaw
Walker
Stones
Maguire
Rice
Henderson / Bellingham
Sterling
Kane
Foden1 - Sponsored links:

Reece James ahead of TAA for me. Against good opposition TAA is still very suspect defensively; it’s just not exposed at Liverpool because of how often they win the ball back further up the pitch.DamoNorthStand said:Been a regular watching England the last few years and took my lad for the first time….

When referring specifically to the wing back formation played today, TAA is our best wing back for me.Andyessgee90 said:

Reece James better in a standard back 41 -

Henderson is a closer of a game.Should not be starting in major tournament games.1

Went today, atmosphere was terrible & all the Mexican wave nonsense made things worse - too many day trippers at England games now, post Euros
And don’t get me started about the signs begging players for their shirts, one sign for Foden was a least 4 ft tall, embarrassing1 -
I was sat by the corner flag, and the kids (and even a couple of adults!) would rush down to the front each time Mount/Grealish came over to take a corner. 5 minutes before the end I couldn't even see what was going on during the game because the view was just blocked by a sea of kids trying to get the prime spot to get the attention of a player at full time, all with their home-made signs. I know they're only kids etc etc, but it feels like you're at Disneyland rather than an international football match.NorthStandUltra said:Went today, atmosphere was terrible & all the Mexican wave nonsense made things worse - too many day trippers at England games now, post Euros

I really want to be a part of the England away experience, but having to endure these home atmospheres in the meantime is torture.1 -
Fell asleep 10 mins into tne 2nd half. Woke up as the penalty was awarded. Gave up with attending these games a few years ago. England at Wembley is invariably a sanitised, dull as fuck experience.

Pickford, after 43 caps, has never made an error that has led to a goal.3

Bet Everton fans wonder what the hell goes on when he puts on an England shirt.Addick Addict said:Pickford, after 43 caps, has never made an error that has led to a goal.
Wonder if he'll get picked up by a Premier League club if they get relegated
Newcastle maybe - Cant honestly see that many suitors due to his club performances1 - Sponsored links:

Keepers aren't immune from making mistakes - it's just that theirs is amplified because of what then follows. We've seen certain strikers miss a string of open goals but if they get 20 goals a season they simply do not get dropped. Pickford is protected more playing for England - one because the better defenders mean the opposition create less chances and as per the shot that Pickford pushed out last night, there is one on hand like Guehi who proactively reacts to the situation.ForeverAddickted said:

Southampton possibly (Forster is 34 and McCarthy is 32 and Pickford is better than both of them) plus possibly one of the three promoted sides too. Just a question as to whether they will have the requisite money. The other club that will be looking for a "complete" keeper in the not too distant future will be Spurs. Lloris is 35 now and whilst he shows no sign of stopping, is Gollini the natural successor? Would they be better selling Lloris now and replacing him with another international keeper who is some seven years younger?1 -
Pickford is a massive Sunderland fan. No chance Newcastle.ForeverAddickted said:

Well I blame him for the Italy equaliser. If that had been Pope he would have pushed it out for a corner. Hate keepers who push shots back into play. He is a disaster waiting to happen imo, plus too small. Harsh, yes but true.0

By the same token, he made a couple of top drawer save against Germany in the 2nd round. The bloke has never let England down.bolloxbolder said:Well I blame him for the Italy equaliser.

My girlfriend bought 8 tickets through an app for NHS workers for the Ivory Coast game tomorrow - she got into work this morning to an email saying they have all been cancelled. We’ve all taken the day off work as we were going to have a piss up at boxpark. Useless cunts.0
