Englands Attackers

[McBrid]

The fact we could have 3 or maybe 4 out Kane, Foden, Grealish, Rashford, Greenwood, Sterling and Sancho all on the pitch at the same time thoroughly excites me. With the excellent Mason Mount in midfield.

And Bellingham look at how he’s done with halland etc

Yeah I said on another thread Bellingham Mount and Rice is a brilliant midfield. Hope it turns out that way with the experience of Henderson on the bench

We'll probably play with 5 defenders with 2 holding midfielders though

 

[Jedi boro]

That’s my worry as well

This is definitely a possibility with Southgate in charge.

Could work but it relieves us of an attacking player so will be a shame if we go that way. Would probably be Grealish who misses out if that’s the case

 

[Marvanelli]

It was interesting watching MNF with Carra & Neville discuss this.

I think Neville is right about our lineup with regards to the Maguire injury. If Maguire isn't fit to play, then I don't see Southgate playing a back 4, I don't think he'd trust us defensively, therefore, he'd probably go with a 5-4-1.

If Maguire is fit, then he may go 4-3-3.

 

[The Card Cheat]

I think the seemingly universal criticism of Southgate is a bit harsh. We did have a period during the last Nations League games when we were inexplicably negative but apart from that England have been more attack minded, entertaining and trusting in young players than the vast majority of England sides I've been watching since the mid 80s.
