Quoted from Boris Johnson
This England side has the potential to be frightening....absolute quality all over the pitch ( apart perhaps from the GK)

hope we can put it together when really needed......




Like Sunday and next Wednesday?

I’ll reserve judgement on the Southgate sequence dancers at least until then..

Attack yes

Midfield possibly

Defence No, they are competent but no world class players in there.

No world class players at left back, centre half, gk or holding midfield will mean we will not be able to keep the goals out against the better teams. Our only chance would be to outscore them 'Keegan Newcastle' style.   3-2,   4-3,   4-2     etc.

Reece James, Alexander-Arnold and Wan Bissaka would get in most top European teams.

Results in recent competitive fixtures suggest otherwise. This team should be clobbering an average Ireland side in a friendly but it should also be able to take more than 1 point out of 6 against a workmanlike Denmark and not stutter to a narrow win over Iceland.

On paper we look very good but (as the old joke goes) you don't play football on paper.

Watched Scotland win last night, was about as painful as watching town with them conceding in the 90th minute.

Looking forward to seeing England vs Scotland in the group rounds!

England U21's similar stats to Town. 86% possession, 11 shots, only 4 on target. Moldova, 1 shot, scores!
HT  1-1.
