Doesn't matter does it? With or without him the squad is good.

When he retires we have players coming through

But hey point score

Thought you didn't do international football?

Beep beeep beep beep, some serious back tracking here PJ.

100% it matters. You had him hung drawn and quartered for losing the Euros only a few days ago.Then you went to town on his performance last week.

You thought wrong. Show me where i said such a thing?

I consider myself a football nerd.

I love the big international tournaments, watching the worlds finest teams.

Apologises I genuinely thought u weren't interested in England so my bad

I wrong on Henderson, he still has something to offer

we’ll see. So far, we’ve played nothing
like the quality that France are.

Neither have France played anyone like the quality of England.

At the beginning It seemed poor, but things have maybe relaxed a bit now.

Only a few days ago a Journo was threatened by local police with arrest if she she never deleted footage on her phone of what was going on outside the Ghana V Uruguay game.

There's tonnes more going on what's not being reported because they will not allow such negativity.

All this tosh about Southgate being a negative manager . Never plays god football or changes it

Used a lot of his squad

15 goals in 4 games with only 2 let in

Think people need to give him a break

This is totally wrong.

The first 30 minutes were shocking again. We were very close to being 2-0 down and got lucky. He had all week to prepare and we start like a snail again. The second we start pressing and don't pass backwards between the centre backs we look a very good side.

I think we're a better side and squad than France but we're going to get done due to Southgate not learning his lesson. I hope I'm wrong but that's 3/4 poor starts and only weak opposition has allowed us to get away with it.

Disgusting.

These creatures need putting down.

As a off topic did you see 24hours in custody the other day??
2 rotters try to break to a house, the owner chases them, knock's them off a stolen bike and ends up doing 22months in prison.

The 2 scumbags get off with community service ffs??‍

Jeeesus! And I get criticism for saying this Country’s gone to the dogs!
If true as reported here, then I pity you young decent folk.

Respectfully disagree. France looked average until they scored.. Poland were the better side at first much like our game

International football is like that

Southgate has changed styles for this world cup. 4 at the back now instead of 5

It's good football

I have a "passing" interest. I dont put face paint on and sing GSTK like but i watch them. I don't support them.

If they win, i'm not arsed, if they lose i have a laugh. I try to call the performance as i see it. Though i must admit, i do like watching Maguire, his defending is like a classic Tom and Jerry sketch ???

Maigure was shown up for his pace tonight and for me our Cbs are the worry in the side ..

We need good centre backs to come through

And ability. He should be nowhere near that team.

Problem is there aren't much better

That should not justify why he's still playing for England whilst struggling to get 5 mins for his club.

I've seen enough top level football over the last 30yrs and he is comfortably up there with Neil Ruddock. Absolute yardie of a CB.

If anyone in the PL could sign him tomorrow for £10m only 3 teams would try to sign him. He's pony.

I think he isn't suited to United but was suited to Leicester

Think he would be a great replacement for zouma for us next to aguard tbh .. now zouma has had another knee op

Wow. After everything you've seen and said you'd be happy for him to replace Zouma?

GK - Pickford has always done well for England with very few mistakes. Lloris is past his best. At best level

RB - Walker different level to Kounde who is out of position
CB - Upamecano hasn't lived upto the early hype
CB - Varane - Classy player but injury prone and lacks sharpness
LB - Shaw is better than Hernandez

Defence is fairly even as we have the better full backs and France the better centre backs.

CM - Rice over Rabiot all day
CM - Henderson v Tchouameni I'd take Henderson for the moment due to experience in that role

AML Mbappe wins this by a million miles although we've got three top class options there
AMC Not many would pick Griezmann over Bellingham
AMR Dembele is a brilliant dribbler but lacks end product. Saka all day.

CF - Giroud is underrated but Kane is in the top 4 strikers in the world

The benches are a mismatch. Saliba would probably start for us at CB but then it would be only Coman who would get on for England.

??‍??‍????

I think he would add an excellent option .

We have aguard, zouma and Dawson and proper CBs

Kehrer doesn't no if he RB or CB (prefer him rb) and ogbonna is basically finished at prem level now sadly

Dawson wants to return north for family reasons , he has served us well and only stayed as we didn't get someone in

Aguard only just returned from months out, looks good but risky , zouma has just had another knee op could be out for few months

I think maigure would be an excellent option to have and once all fit would provide excellent depth

Keeper i'll give you.

Uppemecano/Varrane/konate are all better than Engalnds CBs, comfortably
Fullbacks are better, Walker is still a fortnight away from full fitness, Luke Shaw is,well , average

Tchouameni is at the level of Bellingham, so i'll score that a draw,

Other 2 are better than any Combo you want to come up with in midfield.....

Mbappe will toy with the fullbacks, itll be like a Tom&Jerry Cartoon sketch.

Then you've got the tactical nouse of Deschamps over Southgate

You're on cloud cuckoo land if you think England ard a match for France

No wonder Rice is looking elsewhere.

Spend £30 million on aguard and looks class
Spend £30 million on zouma who apart from kicking cats has been excellent

If you offered me maigure for anything under 20 mil I'd bite your hand off to back them up

Surely you got to see him as an upgrade on Dawson?

Squad game after all
