England go into their Euro qualifier in fine form and undefeated so far in the group and another win for England will more or less secure them a place at the finals in Germany. Ukraine, who haven't played at home since the invasion, will have the backing of 40,000 fans in Poland and it will be no easy task for England.

England lost the services of Jack Grealish and Trent Alex Arnold after the pair withdrew from the squad with injury problems but England has a wealth of talent and should run out victors in this game.

I hadn't realised that we are playing Scotland in a friendly mid-week. That fixture seems to have gone under the radar, they would normally be talking about that game for months prior to it.

I saw an advert for it on Instagram this morning and thought the same. I didn't even realise that Channel 4 were still going to show some games.
 
Pickford

Walker
Maguire
Dunk
Chilwell

Rice
Bellingham
Maddison

Saka
Kane
Foden


Comfortable 3-0 away win
 
Maguire plays otherwise why pick him ( as he’s got no form to speak of) same with Phillips I think both will get minutes but maguire will start one if not both games.

It wouldn’t surprise me if Henderson plays.

Me neither

As I say why pick them if you don’t play them as leaving them out was the easy option. So to go through all that and then not play then makes no sense esp maguire.

Yep and I would add Kyle Walker to that he's superb in all areas of the pitch.
I don't think Henderson or Mcguire should be anywhere near the team. I'm also a bit worried Maddison is begining to believe his hype and is becoming a bit of a Billy big b***ks.

That is interesting about Maddison - just said the same thing to my lad. Lots of little hand gestures and throwing up of arms but not from others when he failed to take a perfect pass in his stride with the goal at his mercy

He was poor today, as were several England players. It was one of the worst performances under Southgate. Far too many second string players in at the same time.
