Doubt they'll have got an inside track but love a conspiracy theory...Maybe Jack is starting? That aside, the range of quotes from a various teammates and coaches proves the quality player he is, and that he'll continue to develop. Nice article to have in this day and age. Sky news were trying to lump him in with Foden & Greenwood as a Covid bad boy last night. There is not one redeeming thing about channel. If there was any justice, this evening our captain would be the cog that turns a Mondeo England team into an Aston Martin. Southgate is either too stupid to see it or too petty to do it. Still, there’s a glimmer of hope until the team is announced later. Edited September 8, 2020 by Awol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We saw what happened when a great attacking team played defensive against a great team when atalanta and psg played each other. If atalanta played like they normally do they might have one instead they cracked and conceded 3 in quick succession. We need to to out and score more than the opposition. Against France and Germany we should end games 4-3, 5-3, 3-2 we need to our score them otherwise we won't stand a chance but cock-nose is too dull to understand that.

Zatman Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 11 hours ago, SeanVilla said: Agreed. Judging by other clubs they're rotating the teams massively which is the best thing to do as this is basically pre season and also gives a great chance to look a different players. Absolutely no reason why Mings and Grealish shouldn't get decent minutes. This is personal between Southgate and Villa. I think the fact he commented on the fans hating him for leaving for Middlesbrough proves that. GET OVER IT SOUTHGATE!!!! He had called up Mings and Heaton in fairness. Its definitely a one way beef between Southgate and Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Silvers Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 really really hope he plays tonight, hope he absolutely smashes it and is the stand out player and hope he stays fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awol Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Daily Mirror Journo reckons a 3-4-3 tonight, debuts for Phillips and Coady but no Jack or Mings. The 4 is supposedly Trent-Arnold, Phillips, Rice & Trippier, with Coady, Gomez and Dier at the back. Southgate can get to f***. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a fair point and one might think that things happening behind the scenes regarding where Jack will be next year, might be the reason we are sluggish so far this window. Until Jack comes out and says he is staying my knees will not stop knocking. If he signs a big new long term contract with us it will be the biggest signing we have ever made. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farlz Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 He might be given about 20 minutes max. If Jack doesn't get subbed on tonight then there's just no hope for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deserves a proper 90 minutes and the chance to influence the game, not Southgate dripping the stink of his incompetence on him for 15 minutes in another tactical howler.

Popular Post est1874 Posted September 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 8, 2020 (edited) Regardless of whether Jack features or not tonight, Southgate can get to f*ck. Patronising waistcoat-wearing wally. I now recall him about as fondly as Alpay Ozalan in my memory bank of sh!thouse centre-halves from over the years who wore the claret and blue with about as much pride and honour as a cheap turd. How on earth he's been so lucky as England boss I'll never know, because his club record is a far better indicator of his level as a manager. The preening twunt.
