Anybody who picks Maguire over Braithwaite, or Gallagher over Wharton, doesn't really inspire me. Southgate the Second until proven otherwise. The only good thing is that Bellingham is missing, so we might get to see some midfield passing instead of running for the sake of it.

Any squad with no Spurs is a good squad

But Maguire over Ben White

White has still ruled himself out hasn't he?

Comfortable 2-0 win over Ireland , despite yet another poor game by Harry Kaine .

He continued to drop too deep like he did under Southgate .

Rice my MOM

No service at all to Kane, but Rice looks a much better player without Bellingham.

Maguire is rubbish. And Grealish is just a poor man’s version of Saka, so predictable coming inside off the left. And untidy with socks at half-mast with kid-size shinpads. Dunno what master Manager Pep sees in him.

ps, what’s this about Carsley not singing “God Save The King”? Hasn’t he seen how other Managers and players belt out their anthem with real gusto?

pps Cyril, you would have noted the Arsenal skipper is injured and in doubt for the derby at 10.30pm Adelaide time this Sunday night?

Grealish played as a number 10 v Ireland with Gordon wide on the left.

Sorry Owl, you’re right about the recent game where Grealish played.

I was thinking of where the departed Manager (Gareth something
...what’s his name?) usually played him - on the left, just as master Manager Pep usually plays him.
