Wharton could easily play for a Barcelona or Real Madrid next season and be successful

Should have been dumped after the world cup

Yes we were we got humped off Hungary in June 2022

Completely agree. Our defence is our achilles heel. Has been for years. Serbia will cause us all sorts of problems. That's why we need protection in front. And that's why I'd start Wharton and rice. They tackle back.

Nations league is no barometer for success at a tournament. We were shite in the n,l but turned up at the world cup when we were a penalty away from taking France into extra time. Nations league is usually a chance to blood players. There's no team in this tournament we can't beat

He was phenomenal at the last euros

Palmer has a brain?

Chilwell. Lewis hall was immense for Newcastle the last couple of months. Shaw is a very good fullback. It's just his injury record

England were shit in the two friendlies before the last euros. I still believe a semi final place will be the minimum. We still have Bellingham to come back. He makes a huge difference. Shaw should be back soon. These games are worthless training exercises. The players clearly don't want to pick up an injury

Tbf ghuei was very good last night. Its mainoo leaving huge holes not tracking back. Rice can't do the job of two players. Wharton would work alongside rice really well imo

Wharton is lightyears better than mainoo

I guess we have to put it down to players wanting to avoid injury. Iceland were far more up for it. But Southgate wastes so many chances to make positive calls. There's no need for rice to play 90 minutes. Wharton was excellent when he came on on Monday gets left out entirely this game for a very average mainoo. Toney should have started the game. Eze should have been used more. I can't wait to see the back of him

Southgate has no ingame management. He's got absolutely zero tactical knowhow. He's our biggest achilles heel by far

Southgate is a fucking bellend. Bigs up Wharton then gives a shite mainoo 90 minutes

Rooney is looking more and more like shrek every day. He's carry a bit of timber

Toney has taken to international football like a duck to water on his displays so far. Some players do. Some don't

This squad definitely has far greater strength in depth than the golden generation

Some pundits recognise talent like Jamie o'hara who bigged him up.

I would say he's better than anything Italy have right now. Portugal France Holland I agree with

A good impact player off the bench if we are chasing a game. But nowhere near good enough to start

Totally disagree on ghuei. Watched him numerous times and he's an outstanding defender. He has everything a modern defender needs. Pace. Recovery. Good on the ball.

When everyone is fully fit shaw stones ghuei and walker is a pretty decent backline. Shaw is expected to be fit for the second game. Ghuei is a really good defender

Yes that's one that I don't agree with. But maybe he needs experience without maguire

United is a graveyard for English talent

The only decision I disagree with is dropping Grealish. We're stacked everywhere else bar left-back
