littleover ram Posted August 31, 2023 Author Share Posted August 31, 2023 Southgate has said before players have to be in form and playing for their clubs… Maguire and Phillips seem to be immune. Sterling has actually been good this season but isn’t in. Why not Ward-Prowse ahead of Phillips? Premier ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSD Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 "Apart from Declan Rice we've got no number 6's apart from Kalvin Phillips" Are we ignoring Angel Gomes who was solid for Lille last season? Oh sorry, I forgot he doesn't pick players abroad unless it's a last resort. That is what it feels like with Tomori. Southgate's pal Dier doesn't get in the Spurs squad, Coady and Stones are injured. Oh no, I have to pick one of best Serie A centre backs, what do you mean they don't play Premier League football? It stinks. Premier ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Henderson plays for Al-Ettifaq fc and it being in Dammam on the Saudi coast...it is the last resort 😁 As for Block Head there's loyalty and stupid loyalty...the FA do like a soft touch in Southgate 👍 Premier ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marriot Ram99 Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Who is Southgate going to select if he doesn't pick Maguire or Phillips? Phillips is still England's 2nd best out and out holding midfield behind Rice and we don't need more creative players, Maguire is alright for England, very good from setpieces and has experience at international level. We haven't got much of quality at centre back. Personally would start Tomori and Dunk as first choice vs Ukraine because whoever we play in defence we should win anyway they are all Premier league quality players and of we don't try players now then when can they get a chance. Bellingham and our attack are so good we'd be alright in qualifying with a Derby defence. Malty and AndyinLiverpool 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Van der MoodHoover Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 What's happened to marc guehi as an up and coming cb? Southgate doesn't seem to plan much for the future. Maguire can't be a decent long term bet. So why not use the qualifiers to try some new blood? He seems to have given up experiments since we got mullered by Hungary.

Didn't think he'd fit in with the ethos of the team. He made it clear in his recent Talksport interview that Henderson would still be considered for selection. I lost a lot of respect for him in that interview - it came across like he'd be very interested in a job in Saudi after his England tenure is over.

Not sure what message that sends out to the other players, Maguire had the chance to move and play regular football, instead chose to sit on the United bench in the hope of getting a game or two. He's now starting for England. Basically one of the first names on the team sheet then regardless of form. Just want to see team picked with in form players, if they are at Bournemouth or Man City couldn't care, need to be in form and playing well that's all.

Without Maguire, he would be forced to play a very inexperienced pairing in the centre of defence. But there's little experience there because he has picked Stones and Maguire far too much.

Van der MoodHoover Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 Was probably a game for Maguire tbf because Ukraine were not that incentive and quite a few of their attacks seemed to be spooned crosses. Even so he doesn't inspire much confidence. Dion Dublin losing enthusiasm on the channel 4 commentary, babbling about "next levels" and "wanting to see more". Perhaps he forgot where he was and was reading his"homes under the hammer" script..... Rammy03 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
