Gary Lineker - "England play so much better when they have a go. Too much talent to play overly cautious and it doesn't play to their strengths."
He's spot on there. We have too much attacking talent and have to get the balance right.
He certainly made a big mistake against Italy. They were there for the taking.
As I said before, I am fine with Phillips and Rice, but then if you also play Mount in a subdued role too, you are negating so much forward play.
Yes and I get why we play both Rice and Phillips. It makes sense.
But we need to allow our attacking players to attack.
Mount isn't the same player for England and Kane often gets completely isolated
This is why I like Grealish. I know he can be hit and miss, but he puts defences on the...
Yes, really.
Look at Mount and Saka for their clubs.
Quite often the biggest attacking threat.
We have some fabulous attacking talent and real skill in our ranks, but play too defensively and our defence clearly isn't good enough.
We played well for the last 15 mins. Germany should have been out of sight by then though.
Bellingham, Grealish and Rice played well. Everyone else was sub par.
I would always pick Foden ahead of Mount and I really think we need to replace Maguire. Tomori won the league title in Italy and deserves a chance in the back four.
I don't like Trippier at left back either.
Exactly. At least Grealish doesn't know how to play any other way. The likes of Mount and Saka are set different roles to their club games, where they are given more freedom there. Much more restrained for England.
