England v Slovakia - Sun 30th June, 17:00 | Euro 2024 Round of 16

[MCFC1993]

Kick off time 17:00 (BST). Being played in Gelsenkirchen. Coverage starts at 15:30 on ITV1.




Well the gods have aligned once again for Southgates men. On the 'easy' side of the draw, with an 'easier' opponent. I'd like to say they can't fuck it up but they can and probably will. A squad of that quality should be making the final on this side of the draw.



It'll be a low block again and England really need to improve at breaking it down.

England last played Slovakia in a World Cup Qualifier in 2017, won 2-1 at Wembley after going 1-0 down.

I'd like to see:
-----------------Pickford
Walker---Stones---Guehi---TAA/Trippier
-------------?????-----Rice
Saka------------Foden--------Gordon
--------------------Kane

He won't drop Trippier which is why I've thrown him in.

As for the question mark, Wharton should play but will probably be Bellingham.

They should spare us the inevitable 2 hours of football dross and go straight to the penalty shootout, which of course we will lose.

Slovakia will be parking the Tourist Bus. There are question marks that England does have the collective footballing intellegence to break that bus down.
