@Ryan Just normal Southgate England tactics. Score, drop deep and defend.
Question has to be should Foden be in this side? He's not as good as Bellingham (few are), and doesn't play well from the left (looks like a bag of shite).
Should we be finding a more natural fit and using Foden as an explosive substitute when the opposition are tired?!?
Lots of talk about Trent but he's asked to invert for Liverpool anyway so has experience playing in the centre. Just doesn't have to get back into RB.
If we win we do so in spite of Southgate I reckon. The players at our disposal and we should be one of the most exciting teams in the tournament.

@Andy-Donnelly I am so so with you here, Trent will take time and training to actually know what on earth to do there, Cesc summed it up last night at HT that he's used to not having to worry about whats happening behind him when he gets the ball...
Not saying he can't do it but he shouldn't be starting in midfield at a major tournament until he has that sorted.
I like Wharton a lot, great player. You are right the bigger teams will destroy that midfield.

Not enough is being mentioned about Englands central midfield as a key weakness. Everyone fixated on the defence and left side, but balance all wrong in the middle imo. Which basically means we lose control of games. Rice no longer a holding mid. More box to box and I’m sorry but we will get picked off by the better teams if Trent is in there as well. Mainoo also not disciplened enough yet. Only really leaves Gallagher and maybe even Wharton if you don’t want Bellingham to play deeper

£215.60 would be the end of week 8 (14th July)

When you got skin in the game, you stay in the game
But you don’t get a win unless you play in the game... -
@Richard-Latimer Yep mental wasn't it, seemed very disjointed to be fair
-
@Ryan think they bored everyone from around 30 mins in.
Started well enough.

Anyone else bored by this tournament so far?
It's just not been competitive.
All favourites won and other than Switzerland they've won easily so far.
Italy back on terms within 10 mins, ahead on 15 and now on cruise control.
Think the tournament has been great so far.
@Akiva-Anderson to each their own. I'm enjoying this game.

@Richard-Latimer could set up some fantastic quarter final lines up though!
-
@Arran-Shackell yeah i did consider variance of course, they are set and forget so you have to expect that, but it did make me think that maybe the interantional comps are having an effect. The million dollar questions is do you leave trading for a month while its on? hmmmmmmmmm
-
Had a couple of issues too with results tanking the last few days. Could be the classic variance but seems too coincidental with the international break.

Has everyone stopped trading the summer leagues while the euros and copa America is on? I’ve just noticed some of the summer leagues form has gone bad. An example today Utsiktens v Varbergs BoIS, H2H the away team had never beaten the home team, in fact the away team hadn’t won all season. In addition its 4th playing 14th as well. This is one example but there have been a few freak results like this. I cant imagine any of the Swedish league players are playing in the euros but perhaps its having an effect? Anyone else trading the summer leagues and noticing a dip in form?

Thought someone said Spain didn't have alot up top
Youngest ever to provide an assist. 16yrs old and he's already worth close to £70m apparently
-
Over 1.5 goals in the Hungary v Switzerland match was 1.52 pre kick-off. Nice price that
-
@Arran-Shackell Spain v Croatia came up in my over 1.5 list.
-
@Shannon-Townsend Yep, value is value. 1 corner short but I'd take it again and again with the boosted price!
