Neither is southgate, easy to forget that when we were moaning about Jack not getting a chance neither was he, still only has 1 sub appearance to his name I think he's the best number 10 that we have, he's brilliant at short sharp passing in and around the box, quick feet and great movement, pep would make a great "striker" out of him The problem is that's not how England play, we don't really have a number 10, England could be electric if we went with rice, Mount, grealish, maddison, foden, Kane, we could go wide or central, goals from anywhere But Southgate seems happy with the midfield attack from mount as the 8 rather than need a 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 I’d have Grealish, Mount, Foden, Sterling, Sancho and maybe even Lingard (if he keeps the form going) ahead of Maddison personally. Hes a good player, but possibly won’t be a game changer like those I’d rather take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a m ole Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Lingard’s way better at 10 than he is on the wing and Maddison is a better 10 for me and can play as an ‘’’8’’’. Maddison is also better at pressing, I’d play him and Mount infront of Henderson or Rice against weaker teams, or at least have him as the attacking replacement for one of the two DMs when we inevitably can’t make a breakthrough. Lingard in his best position doesn’t offer anything to the England set-up for me, as villaforeurope said. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Lingard to me is how Southgate used to want to play, have Henderson boot it in to the channels and have Lingard chase it down, turn the full back around, either run on to it thanks to his pace or at the very least press the full back in to making a mistake / winning a set piece We should have moved on from that to playing actual football, good football, we have the players for it Didn't watch the wolves game but saw that West ham won with 33% possession so I'm guessing quick counter attack, West ham haven't had the most possession in a game since west brom in mid Jan, the highest possession lingards West ham have had is 45% vs Sheffield utd... England should and almost have to have more than 50% vs Czech Republic, Scotland and even Croatia, for England to get better they need the ball... That is grealish, Mount, maddison and foden not Jesse Lingard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Not shocked that Real have targeted TAA and he has played himself out of the Euro squad further tonight. League 1 or Bacuna level defending so far 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
