He should play every game England are scheduled to play.

Pfft

Gareth ready to unleash a fully rested Sterling and Mount onto Senegal

There is always that game. Chances are thin on the ground , players are knackered extra time is looming. The team that wins? The one with that player.


He is also our best penalty taker. Harry Kane is a proven top quality striker. 3 games with 3 assists doesn't stop that being the case.

2.5 given the deflection on his pass tonight…

It’s hard to judge strikers when they play 60 mins and the fresh one looks better. It doesn’t mean they are from the start.

Or Rashford ; )

Of course, have to stay objective. ;-)

Gareth ready to unleash a fully rested Sterling and Mount onto Senegal

Fully rested to chase after the random long clearance from one of our 5 at the back.

To be honest England were head and shoulders above Wales onward to the knockout phase the only team I fear is France and unfortunately they block our way, you never know come on England.

The age old problem.

He scores you THAT chance.

He’s not playing and the team creates 15 other chances and THAT chance isn’t needed.

Place you're bets now.

I'd liken that to City with and without Haaland.

There was a reason Pep wanted Kane, his dropping deep and ability to create is needed, especially for England as we lack creative quality on the middle. Rashford today played the Son role at Spurs and running into the space created by Kane, it was the main reason Rashford looked good today.

Where I worry is when we play an organised defence (like the USA) who allow Kane to drop deep, knowing their CBs won't follow him and their midfielders shut off his passing lanes. This neutralised Sterling and Saka.

This situation is when you need Grealish and Phil either side of him and ideally someone with a creative bone in their body in the middle so he doesn't have to keep dropping deep.

Mane is having "what could've been" dreams vs England and then France.

Look at what you could have won.

Yet, so far, the difference isn’t that great.

Haaland scores a higher percentage of our goals, but our overall win percentage is pretty similar.

Rashford is probably a lot happier these days knowing the Portuguese ladyboy has fucked off. Still a greedy ****. Twice shot when Phil was unmarked if he squared it
