Leeds United are far better to watch than England in every possible way

Clubs always steal songs from Leeds. These La Bamba chants are awful, don't even make sense or fit the tune.

England trying to play out from the back, but they don't have White, Phillips or Bielsa.

Re: Today's Games - Czech Republic v England
Phillips would have walked into this England team had he signed for Aston Villa in the summer

Re: Today's Games - Czech Republic v England
I don't mind watching Bamford play for all his limitations. I'm listening to Banks III which is infinitely more preferable to watching England play football

Re: Today's Games - Czech Republic v England
Tbf Villa fans were convinced Grealish would once they were in the Prem.
Phillips is a long way down the England pecking order.
Declan Rice has played 70 odd Premier league games and is 3 years younger, thats KP's direct competition atm.
Personally think Rice is the best of the new England crop.
Have to be realistic imo.

Re: Today's Games - Czech Republic v England
Rice was distinctly average v the Czechs.
That England side is poor & is wide open for others like Phillips, White, Grealish, etc to make an impact into the England set-up
Don't talk to me about being realistic Cjay, you don't think Phillips is one of our best players
All I can say is take Phillips, White & Pablo out of our team & we would be very extremely average. We were a shambles in the last fifteen minutes at Millwall without KP. We've lost two of our last three games without Pablo.
Imagine the Leeds defence without White at the back

Re: Today's Games - Czech Republic v England
I like Southgate but he got it badly wrong last night.
Team selection was ridiculous we’ve got arguably the best right back in the world in Trent Alexander Arnold but he’s 2nd choice for England behind Trippier
Keane shouldn’t even be in the squad, Rose over Chilwell a complete joke as well
The midfield structure is all wrong, Rice is good at breaking up play but average on the ball. He is very tenacious but think he suits West Ham’s style more and it’s worth remembering too Noble is the one who gets on the ball and dictates games not Rice at West Ham. He shouldn’t be starting games yet.
Henderson should be playing CDM he’s comfortable with this style of football but needs to play deeper to protect two more creative players ahead of him a bit like KP (who FWIW I don’t think should get a call up yet but isn’t a million miles away if anything Ben White should be in contention too)
Massive shame Phil Foden and Joe Gomez can’t get regular games at City or Liverpool.
Team I’d go with on Monday:
Pickford
Alexander Arnold
Maguire
Mings
Chilwell
Henderson
Sancho
Mount
Barkley
Sterling
Kane

Re: Today's Games - Czech Republic v England
Why Southgate left his best RWB out god only knows? he's been terrific for the scousers. In fact Liverpool have the two best wing backs in the premiership in AA & Scotland's best player Andy RobertsonOscar wrote: ↑Sat Oct 12, 2019 8:52 am I like Southgate but he got it badly wrong last night.
