That could easily be the same everything except Konsa for Guehi. Why would anyone want Trippier as a wing back when you’ve got one of the best attacking right backs in the world in the squad.

Only reason I can think of is if you start Gomez as the RCB instead, that only leaves you one CB in Dunk on the bench to cover three spots.

You could always shift Walker inside to RCB if necessary during the game but I'm guessing more CB options off the bench is the reason why.

You don't want Walker at RWB, if we play 3 CHs then he is generally one of them and has been for years.

It'd be Alexander-Arnold at RWB where you would imagine a lot of his flaws would get hidden, like a supremely deluxe Doherty from 2018.

Not sure TAA works all that great as a wingback, think he needs a player in front of him to get the best out of him.

Yep. He’s not an overlapping type. Most of his best work is from deep

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

He is a seriously weird player when you try to assess him, a defender who can't defend but you also have to play him in defence.

This going to be a looooooong afternoon/evening

Trippier at RWB ahead of Trent. Fuck off Southgate.

At the moment there is no reason for what it's doing ridiculous it changes anything to words tgat dont exist, and I don't know why

Surely today's the day someone steps up to the plate and we find a replacement for fucking Kalvin Phillips

 

[White Wolf]

Southgate has bottled dropping Foden which is disappointing. Usually he took his time but ultimately would drop a player who did not perform. Let's hope he does well today. Similarly it feels a waste to play Trippier when we now have Walker covering - would prefer TAA for once.

It’s the same

Same old back four again.

Trippier effectively playing left midfield when we have the ball

So weird to invert Trippier and Saka.

A mess of Southgate's own making is what I'd call it.

 

[AndyWolves]

How do we look so vulnerable and toothless at the same time?

 

[Squeak]

Rigor mortis has set into our forward line. Kane is a fucking statue at times.

Exact problems as the first 4 games. Use the same ingredients and you end up with the same cake.

I'm using that analogy at work
