Shankland? Captain of Hearts? 
Haa, we're just giving leader badges out for fun.

[Terry Silver]

Maldini was a leader, Roy Keane was a leader.

[Herman Boyce]

I was thinking that when you see it written down it doesn't look all that strong.

Mainoo, Rice, Foden, Bellingham, Saka and Kane is a very good front six.

Their back five isn’t great and if boys like Dunk and Bowen have to play they’re in bother.

Foden and Bellingham are the two class operators on their day, I'm not overly fussed about the rest.

Foden has never really been great for England as of yet so hopefully that will continue.

The funny thing is Dunk and Bowen would be first names on the Scotland team sheet if they were Scottish 

We are very lucky England have Southgate in charge.

Southgate has been their best manager in years. England haven't won a thing in any of our lifetimes and it's only been in recent times while he's been in charge where you feel they actually have a chance of winning anything.

[Zizou]

See if Germany, Italy, Spain etc were anything like the standard they usually are, England wouldn't get a mention.

If Bellginham, Foden and Kane click into gear they will win it but I'm yet to see Southgate use those shree effectively.

[KartumaFish]

England have crumbled any time they've played a good team in a major tournament. They've had a succession of third rate opponents and played almost every game at Wembley en route to a final defeat. Southgate isn't necessarily a poor manager but he's done nothing given the circumstances.

Calm down with the Southgate patter.

Nah man, he's done his bit. Thing is with winning major tournaments there are those who can and those who can't and the English are cants.

They're a Kane injury away from being a last 16 side, and they're doing nothing with that defence either, slab heid or no slab heid. 

Another golden generation to end in tears is an absolute nap

The Dunk/Bowen point also only becomes relevant if they’re down to playing their 23rd and 24th choice players The France line-up probably doesn’t look that intimidating either if you assume they’re going to play Jonathan Clauss and Bradley Barcola

I liked when he lost against Croatia, a shite italy and schooled against France.

Southgate is a myth

I liked that too, sometimes teams are just destined for failure and England are one of them, they've been in positions to win things where things have all went their way but when it comes to it they are bottle merchants, it's in their DNA.

Sacking Southgate and appointing the next diddy isn't going to change that.

They've had the easiest routes in tournaments knowing to man and caught short everytime they've had to face a team in the top 10. Purely on lack of in-game tactical nous from Southgate.

He's a total square, making a mockery of players who should walk these tournaments.

[pondlife]

I'm just hoping they kick off in the streets, and disgrace themselves when the inevitable KO loss happens, hopefully in the semi vs the Gerries.

[Big Physical Acey]

A rare bullseye from Scott here. A competent England gaffer would have a Euros and possibly even a World Cup (certainly a final appearance) under his belt by now.

If they had a world class centre half they’d stroll this tournament. Hopefully they come up short against a proper side as usual.

Get shot of that clown before the tournament starts.

SHANKLAND!!
