    plus, i know Rose was out of the Spurs side more than he was in last season but both he & Trippier play with Kane everyday.   They'll know where he wants to ball, or what space he will be going

The only change I would make would be RLC for Alli. I's certainly not be fucking about changing formation.

If we get to the final I shall be leaving Greece early and heading for Russia

 

Any suggestions for best routes from Manchester

We definitely were worse after Sterling went off

Yep. Though I think the mindset was changing.

 

I also had a thought that Dier could be our Fellaini. He's decent in the air, and should we need to go direct in search of an equiliser he'd be quite useful. Not creative in midfield but may have a use.

Certainly should have scored that header to spare us from penalties.

He admitted it too. Quite like him when he speaks, not as numb sounding as some.

He was injured for most of extra time Kane. Hope he's fit.

 

Why would changing the system be suicide? We're not creating chances as things stand and Sweden will know exactly what they have to do against us to stop us. 

 

Pretty much been answered above but same reason for me - we've trained, drilled and know that system and it allows some flexibility which the squad are clued in on.  It's Kevin Keegan like to switch things last minute . . .

 

Said all along we don't really have an effective plan B and when teams adapt we struggle, yet here we are!

Agree but I'd put that down to the system rather than the player.  I'll admit he creates space and panics defenders, probably better than anyone, but without any end product I'm not seeing the benefit.  Toss of a coin between him and Rashford I suppose.

 

What's said above about Alli looking better with better players around him probably goes for Sterling as well

 

LC for Alli isn't a bad shout either

I’ve looked at a few and KLM via Amsterdam is competitive in terms of pricing, minimum lay over as well

 

That wasn’t the final mind but I’m sure it would be similar

He can speak 2 languages most England players struggle with 1

Will be a below average premier league type of game. England go out to a deflected shot. Or not getting the rub of the green on a VAR decision.

Alli definitely looks like he's carrying an injury, doesn't seem to be moving freely at all. Surprised he stayed on for so long. I'd play Loftus-Cheek for him, I'm happy with the rest. 

Dutch referee (Bjorn Kuipers).

No panic.

 

2-0.

 

Enjoy next Thu morning (already booked off).

We’ve had a great 20 years of sport in this country, winning things we never thought possible

 

But, this is the biggest prize in team sport.

 

It’s a great time.

Young not gonna be fit according to a few reports today

 

Don't think it's a bad thing as we need some balance and a left leg in there

He's not done anything wrong and would deserve to retain his place if fit. I agree, we seem to be unbalanced. Rose far more aggressive in getting forward. 

 

all quite predictable down that left side at the moment 

Yep agreed.

 

Crosses a decent cut backs from both sides can only benefit Kane in his pursuit of goals.

Guess who's plane takes off at 15.25 on Saturday. please please a 2 hour delay, was wondering if the pilot would keep us updated. 

 

I flew out on Thursday when England were playing Belgium and the pilot was giving updates every 20 minutes

Young is in for his set piece delivery which to be fair is excellent. Miss him there if he’s out. But Rose having a left foot will offer more balance in possession. He was unlucky not to score in extra time was Rose.

We did nowt from set pieces against the Colombians. Their big centre halves gobbled everything.

Delivery wasn't quite as good as it was prior but God knows how many were being nipped, held etc

Apart from our only goal
