What formation are England playing today? - I’ve looked at the selection and can’t work it out (not that I’ve tried that hard 😁😁)

[Andy]

It's a 4-2-3-1.

But I find the inclusion of Jordan Henderson the most baffling aspect.

it don`t matter,we are playing a bunch of amateurs who would struggle against euxton villa,there should be  pre qualifying for teams of this standard

Two right backs on the bench, Curtis, aware you’re a centre mid, but, today you’re at right back, my son!

[chaddyrovers]

and people used to complain about Southgate's team selection. 

Its a surprising team selection with Jones at right back, James at left back and Henderson as holding midfielder 

[wilsdenrover]

stunningly poor 

[Tugayisgod]

Dire stuff. Madueke the only one to come out of that half with any sort of respectability.

Watched Spain v France the other night, fantastic game,the difference in quality is alarming between us and them

[Bohinen1983]

Awful, awful, awful..  Talking about Senegal being a challenge.. FML, Andorra were a challenge.. Can't break teams down. Embarrassing!

What’s that Gareth Southgate doing these days? Would he come back?

[roversfan99]

I know its a game that no one wants to play, but scraping to a 1 goal victory over a team that isnt even all full time players further highlights how we do not have a team that is at the very top.

Lets hope we can get another set of favourable fixtures next summer.

Wherever he is, he’s surrounded by money and no medals. Nice work if you can get it!

[Gav]

Fair play to Tuchel who called the game and players exactly as we all saw it.

Players lacking energy, lacking interest and unable to do the simplest of things. 

Spot on.

Only a knighthood for services to football 🙄

People went on like he was the new Alf Ramsey, but he never won a trophy, tbf. He did a lot of good, but he couldn’t get us over the line, so a knighthood was pretty generous, really.

Not sure knighthoods are a barometer you can put much store in, whatever industry they are part of.

I liked Southgate, I think it was more based on seeing his transition over the years from player to penalty to England manager. Deep down we all wanted that elusive victory for his full circle but just wasn't meant to be
