Mainoo clearly has some talent but not ready for England. I’m surprised Angel Gomes hasn’t had a look in. Played England u21s, and apparently playing well out in France, is a holding midfielder

Southgate only travels abroad to watch his beloved Jordan play

He's off the radar. Southgate doesn't rate Serie A one bit so that's why Tomori and Lofus Cheek aren't getting chances despite AC Milan always in Europe. French league will probably rate even lower in his mind (although of course Dutch Eredivisie is ahead of La Liga....! 😂)

We'll see Gomes level in a few weeks so will be interesting how he does against our midfield.

Bets Konsa won’t get a minute across both games again?

He should be trying stones at DMC rather than Mainoo and then looking at his other CBs, it's a stronger set up

He has only been playing well for the last four or five seasons, so if he got picked it would be recency bias

It could be potentially worth watching support England with Ollie in the first half and if they take him off and they put Dougie on for Brazil support Brazil in the second half

Slabhead again, just why?

It’s not like he’s any **** good, I’d love to know the reasoning.

At least Clare Balding’s girlfriend will have reason to cheer.

Don’t mind the team to be honest. Maguire is a joke, but it’s fine. Konsa there would be better but Southgate won’t pick him. 
 

Short of Mainoo coming in, I think Rice and Gallagher behind Bellingham is the best midfield we can go for. 
 

Foden on the right is a bit weird but it’s not terrible

Think Foden has been playing right wing mainly this season hasn't he?

Clare is playing just behind Ollie isn’t he?

Never let Southgate down 

Part of me wishes he just threw one in the **** net at this stage 

Just seen the 2 Brazilian CBs are making their debut, it's a 20 year old kid from PSG and a guy from flamengo, 0 caps and 8 games in Europe between them

Hope Ollie grabs a 1st half hat-trick
