This is so true. Tried and tested failures for decades. Lampard and Gerrard as prime examples. I would like to see a team out like today. I am actually interested in it for a change. Give them a run for a number of games the German way and who knows what might happen. At least it's better than watching the tried and tested failures.

Kane for Abraham
Ali replaces Loftus-Cheek in the advanced role.
Loftus-Cheek drops deeper and replaces Livermore.
Forget Sterling, Henderson, Cahill, Smalling etc.

I am with you on that.

Looks like Pickford is our last player with any value we can sell. Give it a year and he'll be sold off and replaced with dross.

Did you here that on commentary? Pickford the last Everton keeper since Gordon West. Hope the big man is looking down and is proud of how well Jordan is doing.

Sounds like he's having a game, will give the lad a big boost

If he can do it behind Harry Maguire, he can do it behind Phil Jagielka.

Loftus-Cheek, Stones and of course Pickford our stand out players. No coincidence they are all talented young players. That is the way forward. Fans would give England more 'slack' in the finals next summer if we played talented youngsters, than tried and tested failures.

Give it time mate, we as a nation will grind them down.

I think he needs to work on his catching skills quite a lot.

Pickford doing well. I know people complain about his saves coming back into play at times but many of those are instinctive quick reaction saves that he does well to get to....he will have no control over them and just do well to save them. For a young keeper he is looking boss.

Exactly. When you have 175 shots at you in every game, some of them are bound to go back into play.
