Nothing will work without a proper left footed left sided full back or left wing back….Mitchell from Palace was the obvious choice…4-2-3-1 Rice with Gomez, attacking midfielders much like the Germans: Eze(or Gordon), Kane and Foden..Kane as central striker but Bellingham’s movement should be ‘keep as far away as possible from Kane’..Kane drops deep, Bellingham gets forward!

Pauls first comment is one that I have always thought...The biggest issue with England teams since 1966 is managers not playing players in their club positions. Ramsey said he picked the best players for the game plan.....and they played where they played for their clubs. The other thing is two strikers....talked about now like its odd...crazy! Well done guys ...great show.

My team for the next game: Pickford; Saka, Guehi, Stones, Arnold, Rice, Bellingham, Gordon, Palmer, Kane, Watkins. Formation: 4-2-4. Balance: Saka is going to be my left-footed attacking wingback and Arnold my right-footed attacking wingback. Arnold and Saka will overlap on either side and will provide lots of crosses into the box. Gordon will stay wide on the left and cross the ball, also. Palmer can cut inside from the right and shot from distance or provide defense-spitting through balls. Forwards: Kane playing as a deep-lying forward and Watkins as an advanced forward. One coming short, linking the play and one stretching the pitch to run into space. Gameplan: - Press High. - Stretch the pitch by playing wide. - Play the ball forward quickly. - Play lots of through balls. - Attack the wings. - Get lots of first-time crosses into the box. - Have someone attack the near post, far post, the penalty area and one on the edge of the box. - Defend with five players all the time. - Attack with five players all the time. - Have four players in the opponent's half of the field on all occasions.

Don't know why people are so surprised. The last four matches against Denmark (regular time) have ended with three draws and a loss to England. But as always we believe that we are superior. Reality check needed. And the excuses were bollocks , the pitch was terrible (it was) , the heat was terrible (yeap) , but Denmark is not an exotic country and there players played on the same pitch and really they are pro players so it is not better for them than England. And even though England has got the star players , the danish team has players from Barcelona, Roma , Anderlecht, Man U, Benfica, Tottenham, Brentford, Leicester, Milan etc etc and my point is that a team of pro good players playing as a team and with a game plan will almost always beat a star team with no game plan.

Southgate took him off alot in euro 202 for poor performances, but the english forget that. Bellingham doesnt have Kross, Rice doesnt have Saliba behind him, Foden doesnt have kevin debruyne etc etc. World class players can pass and control the ball, whether their manager puts them in a different position or the best position.

The defining moment of this conversation was when Merse stopped talking and started thinking... The reality of how difficult it is to balance a squad of brilliant players, average players, inexperienced players players covering others due to injuries. And for the record, Trippier has played left back in tournaments without an issue before. Foden has played on the left many times for City... And the amount of people shouting for Trent to find a place in the team over the last few months who've suddenly gone very quiet is hilarious. Regardless of positions, tactics, form etc, the amount of bad performances against Denmark says that some of these players aren't as good as we like to think. If you really are a top player, you shouldn't need spoonfeeding through games. France reached a World Cup final in 2006 where everyone had fallen out with the manager.

We all know a good coach will elevate a player and will structure a team, set them up for success. Having gone thru the debacle of Gerrard at Villa who stripped our squad of confidence in their own capabilities while being unclear of their role match to match that they weren't allowed to question. Do as I say... So yes a coach plays a huge influence on a player and team as they rely on their manager to let them know what their role is, if there is confusion, unclear expectations and tactics it shows. It all stops at Southgates door, no tactics, he relies on moments of brilliance to score. Then there is no plan b, Southgate stands passively on the sidelines and replaces the front 3 like for like, so again no real tactics, waiting for a moment of brilliance. Its utterly ridiculous that we are so one dimensional with little pre-game tactics from training ground to match...And we have nothing...

With respect your comment makes little sense as its an all or nothing premise; either its all the Manager's fault or its the players. Firstly it always starts at the top, a good coach brings out the best in their players, is a leader and sets them up for success with clear direction and expectations laid out. Each player whether they start or on the bench shd know what their role is within the overall tactical strategy objectives. They then practice that on the training field including Plan B what IF scenarios like going down to 10 men. So are the player bang average? I would say no, but I do think there is a level of inexperience at an international level. These players are used to receiving tactical info and working in training drills to refine how they are going to play and contain Denmark etc they didn't and not so surprisingly they almost lost the match. ❤ BUT this inexperience, I do think if anything that they are far too passive and respectful around Southgate, maybe even fearful. The training facilities and set up is so comfortable and fun that it's more like a summer camp and they have also lost a competitive edge. I also think they are all aware that anyone that truly questions Southgate is inevitably dropped either to the bench or out completely. So when players are asked as Southgate asked you to drop back once you score, its true he hasn't. But what he has drilled into them constantly i to maintain possession, don't lose the ball. He has instilled that fear in them and fear breeds mistakes and it forces you back on your heels and once your opponent senses that, more pressure is applied. It's a catch22 and it's a mess. It will be very interesting to see the next match, the changes etc.

Fantastic question. That is the big question Sterling answered when playing with England and almost singlehandedly dragging them to their first final in over 50 years which Rooney, Beckham, Gascoigne, Gerrard, Hoddle and many other recognised great players were not able to do. Yet that one player that proved he was not just playing with great players is not in the squad, let alone the first eleven team and the team is suffering for it. Saying his club form is poor is not correct as in the last 3 games of Chelsea's season he was responsible for 2 of their victories and that excuse is weak anyway as it was used by the media before the last Euros demanding he should be dropped only for him to almost singlehandedly drag England to the final when selected. Interesting how Merson picks out Saka, probably the consistently best performing England player. I would say those are racist instincts to always pick out a black player when discussing negatives.

Talking sense but as Mers said, Southgate is a defensive manager, so we will win nothing

Southgate being a defender is not a reason it’s an excuse Klopp was a defender Pep midfield and not an offensive one Arteta defensive mid Unai Emery barely played football The Spain coach is in his 60’s and was a left back Julian Nagglesman just came out of school ffs Merson wants to play Kane as a 10 though 😂😂😂😂😂

Anything of value is being destroyed, from beauty spots, ancient trees, roads, the NHS, is southgate in place to do the same? Did he sabotage the last final they got to?

We Scots love to listen to grumpy ex England players and pundits analysis of events after poor performances. Curious how the opposing teams skills are rarely mentioned.

England are obsesed with clichés. Play on the front foot, get after them etc. The key component of a good team is balance. Currently there are too many players occupying the same space with no pace. I would drop Foden. Big call but I don't think he can play with Kane. Play Saka wide right and Gordon wide left. Put Wharton in midfield with Rice and Bellingham. Now you have more balance. Kane can come deep and release those rapid wide players. That's part one of the solution. Part 2 is Southgate needs to get home the message to his players that they need to be more aggressive out of position. Stop standing off players and get in people's faces. If you are aggressive out of possession you will be bright and assertive in possession. The first part is easily achieved, the second will require a departure from Southgates safety first approach.

Southgate isn’t brave enough to go all out and try to win. Hes wasting the talent at his disposal and the sooner he goes the better as it’s bloody painful all us England fans to see
Merse was right!!! 😅😅😅 he changed Trent for Connor 😂😂

That's what I am saying. They are fooling around with poles, bungees and cones in training. Looks like out of season training for me. Drill patterns of play.

I’ve watched all these podcasts over the last couple of days and they’re all coming to the same conclusion. Nice bloke Southgate, but he hasn’t got a clue and he’s killing us. Which is 100% correct. Way to kill the young lads in Mainoo & Wharton. You’re not Kalvin Phillips so you ain’t playing.

His Bowen comments are ridiculous he has scored 20 and had 10 assists and not one of them was a penalty
