I understand the criticism on here but from the outside looking in, I think there is a risk of a pile on.Not sure where all this dislike for Bellingham is coming from. Great player and will only get better playing for Madrid. Early doors but looks like he’ll be the standout player in this England team.
If there was it would be no more justified than the pile on, on Foden.
He’s a very good player but he took far too much out of the ball at times the other night. He needs to keep the ball moving quicker.
The truth is TAA was wedged into your midfield when he really wasn’t needed. It put a few players out of position, our Phil most notably.
TAA is very good at the Liverpool long ball game, but that’s not what England was set up for.
TAA is not good enough to displace Walker at RB and consequently wasn’t required. No disrespect to him in saying that.
When Gallagher and Bowen came on your work rate in midfield increased significantly.
I think you have a squad that could take on anyone. Play Phil behind Kane and a midfield that presses, with overlapping fullbacks joining in when you have sustained possession. What could possibly go wrong.
