Annoys me that pundits and commentators say there are no easy games in international football, tonight’s England game should be an easy game.
England should score plenty of goals for an easy win.

Apart from the two CBs being the other way around that looks a better balanced team

That's a England team I can get onboard with
Bellingham playing the position that works best for getting the best for the team , Rodgers getting his chance and Bowen starting
Even if you take Bowen out and put saka back in when fit I much much prefer Bellingham as an "8' for England than trying to watch him , kane and foden all try to play the same space

Has any other team ever paraded the Carabao Cup after winning it?One of the women at work is into her football, another has no interest at all. I was chatting to the interested one about the gathering next Sunday to show the trophy off and bemoaning the lack of a parade instead. The uninterested one asked, 'what did they do last time?' We both looked at each other and burst out laughing. 'We weren't alive back then, we don't know'
It's been the lesser cup competition the last 20yrs or so, its a great win for Newcastle but i would consider their football league championship win bigger than this.

Anything less than a four goal victory is a fail, for me.

Any English people nervous about tonight's big game? 
I don't think you will find a single person up here who would agree with your last sentence. It's the weakest of the trophies on offer each year, the football equivalent of the PGA Championship
, but it's still worth much more than a championship trophy. The championship trophy is one you don't want, you don't want to be in that league in the first place.
The parade is simply a reaction to being starved of a trophy for so long. If they win it again next year I doubt this would be repeated.

Ask any current Championship side would they rather win the league or a 4th rate cup competition and im certain they'd all rather win the league.I don't think you will find a single person up here who would agree with your last sentence.

Maybe now Newcastle are an established PL team they deem their League win as a lesser acheivement. Winning the league trumps any cup competition imo.

Tough to play against a low block with 11 men behind the ball but England so narrow
Not sure why the left back is playing so much inside, crowding the area , he needs to get out wide to help Rashford

I'm pretty sure they'd be even happier winning the League Cup and finishing second in the Championship.

Plus standard England, always taking 5 or 6 touches before playing the pass everyone knew you were going to play as soon as you got the ball.

That's the way to do it. Just get an Arsenal player to fall over in a dangerous position then you only need one touch.

Shame about his injuries as have always thought he better defensively than most of them
