The three at the back made us look far more solid defensively albeit it lacked a ball player like Stones to get the ball up the pitch.
I think Rose will suit the system better than Bertrand will and in midfield Barkley needs to play instead of Livermore as he is just a far superior footballer.
Had we took our chances last night we could and should have been 2 or 3 up by the time Podolski scored, but that has been England's problem in these sort of games.
The likes of Kane despite being PL top scorer last season couldn't hit a barn door at The Euros last summer.
Not bothered about friendlies, that's what they're for, to try out new things.
Thought Livermore looked like a fish out of water, last night.
