Bellingham might be the most entitled player on the planet.
Rio and LinekerWho questioned Kane?
Why it took so long for people to see this god only knows. I saw it in our friendly game against Belgium.
Him coming back into the midfield is a massive issue. It unbalances the whole side.
Rice, Bellingham, Foden is as good a trio as any in the tournament, but you don’t see half of what they do because you have a centre forward and a right back stepping on their toes in the middle of the field.
The whole point of having that right back in the midfield, is to use his wand of a right foot for deliveries over the top. But with Foden named at LW but playing centrally, and Kane back in his own half, there are feck all outlets for Trent to look for.
Must have been a divotBest passer in the world
Perfect summary. He says and does all the right things to the players and cameras. It he falls so far short with his tactical set upIt doesn't matter how good the players are, if you have one of these no-tactic coaches you won't win. Southgate, you have to be more than a politician.
Trent is the English Ralston.
it's why, despite the obvious, I wanted the sheik: he would have come in big broom and hired lots of the right people like Mansor did at CityGood people.. the best people..
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe it's a very old wooden boat (anchorman reference).Something no England manager has ever considered.
They do now.
In other news, Hojlund is really bad with his back to goal, isn’t he?
Southgate tax.Pep’s reputation growing by the game because so many of these City players look so average outside of his system.
Southgate is a stubborn buffoon. This Trent experiment being trialled in an international tournament is mind boggling. It's like he heard all the complaints he was too boring and defensive with his team selection and thought "watch this guy's". Prat
Foden and Trent being shoe horned in because fans/media don’t want to see big names benched… you love to see it.
