Albania v England - Sun 16th Nov, 17:00 | World Cup Qualifier

Bellingham is an 8, not a 10. He played as a 10 at Madrid for one season because they had no striker, but he had Kroos and/or Modric in midfield behind him to do the creating so it worked. A midfield three of Anderson, Rice and Bellingham will win nothing - there's just not enough creativity there.

It's so painfully obvious that his ego is getting in the way of what's best for the team. He can be a world class 8 but that would require using his talent to platform others rather than trying to be the star of the show.

Jude Bellingham is England's best player.

His ability to lose defenders and drive England up the field is so valuable.

There's been so much conjecture over his role ahead of the World Cup.

But England only have a realistic crack at winning the tournament if Bellingham is in the starting X
Oh right,that’s told us then
 
Dan Burn ffs…. Great for Newcastle, but should be nowhere near our National team

He must be good if England are only going to start 10 players at the world cup…
