England Squad - Euro 2024

Agree with a lot of that but Gallagher and TAA should be nowhere near a midfield spot. I’d prefer Mainoo before them. Gallagher was a disaster in the friendlies. He can’t play football. TAA glory balls it to the opposition all the time.

If Rice needs a ‘water carrier’ then a bit of blue tint but Lewis is ideal. Nothing fancy. Links the play and keeps it moving. That’s why I prefer Mainoo too.
Underestimating Rico a bit there, a lot more than a water carrier, he's got a really good eye for a quick through ball and isn't scared of it not coming off - Rice should be the water carrier for him!!
 
Contrary to the views on here i think its a mistake in not taking Rashford.

No problem with the young rag being selected either. Think you have to be pretty blinkered to not see a very good young footballer in him. Seems to have a good head on his shoulders aswell. No daft flashy haircut and designer gear and I don't think I've ever heard him speak! Definitely much happier to see Mainoo than Henderson or Phillips anyway.
 
I think Bellingham is that player, his half season playing upfront for Real Madrid has people convinced he is a forward. I see no reason why he can't sit with Rice in a double pivot. In fact I think thats his best position.
So do I.

He certainly has the engine to be a box-to-box midfielder, and I think he would be better deployed as such.

IMHO Southgate deployed every excuse from age to not playing in a certain position for City to not play him regularly.

But it's a nailed on prediction that he'll play Bellingham whatever the reason even though he chose the easy route by playing for the state owned Galactico's.
