Today’s Football 2019/20 Season

[Billy Dean]

England line up

Pickford Trippier Rose Keane, Maguire, Henderson, Rice, Mount, Kane, Sancho, Sterling

Not so keen on that defence, even the full backs never mind the centre

Chilwell should be in and Gomez too for me - no pace in the centre, so one slow centre back isn't desperate but when both are slow on the turn you have problems

Tbh these qualifiers don't really matter and could easily have promised club managers one game only

Win draw or even lose 126 to nil and England will qualify

I have some doubts about chilwell defensively. Rose being in is no problem for me. I agree Gomez is better than both Keane and Maguire though

 

[Chris O'Connor]

England start a Euro qualifier with a centre half that's currently 18th in the league. Grim.

And as per usual take the lead, why on earth do we play these qualifiers?

England always qualify

Lose 126-1 and we still qualify

1-1

Everton all over that goal, Keane lost his man.

 

[Blue Juice]

lol Danny rose is absolutely woeful

 

[Billy Dean]

England in microcosm so far

 

[Chris O'Connor]

The thing is unlike the nations league, every game doesn't matter - lose this horribly and we still qualify

The Nations league is miles better than qualifiers that just don't matter a jot.

Englands centre midfield is awful like ours

 

[Billy Dean]

This is the sort of time when you want your midfield to get their foot on the ball amd slow things down. Unfortunately we have Henderson and Rice

 

[Blue Juice]

This midfield is absolutely abhorrent. Dreadful dreadful football

 

[maccavennie]

Southgate trying to give Keane tactics lol

Don't bother Gareth, Terry Tugboat doesn't do tactics

 

[Yid4life]

Bring on Winksy....

 

[Sarnia Kevin]

Southgate has obviously been studying Marco's defense tactics

 

[Paris]

I'm not watching but surely we have better midfielders than Rice and Henderson?

 

[Billy Dean]

Hoddle is bang on here. Good to see a pundit finally comment on how poor this midfield is
