As expected, Pickford relegated. Nick Pope started today.

Grealish, MotM.

So, as a few of prognosticated, appears Southgate does indeed have an agenda against Grealish.

Asked twice, about Grealish performance, and he’s both dodgy, and changes the subject.

It is a strange one

Hes needed next summer for sure

I dont think he starts a game, but its gonna come up against a team that may sit back, where sterling and sanchos speed is kind of nullified, that kind of leaves kane as the only real great passer in the forward and midfield groups, so if we wanna avoid TAA or trippier just bombing in crosses, especially when kane is pretty much the only target in the box, having a more creative midfielder is gonna be needed off the bench

Southgate toying with his squad. Mings & Keane, beside Maguire. Been a decent look.

Same with up front, in Grealish with Calvert Lewin & Sancho.

And nice to see Henderson get the second half.

Can we stop playing 3 at the back

Its arguable the worst position we have

Grealish is basically a locked on starter now or should be

Kane, sterling, graelish

Next 8 up for grabs

It is only Nations League, but Spain absolutely taking Germany to the woodshed right now.

Looks like there will be no fireworks in Euro 2020 Group D as Scotland qualify over Serbia. First major for Scotland since France 1998.

Does Nation League function like a tournament where the top two teams advance, so today's match between Croatia & Portugal means nothing?

how Jogi Löw still has this job is beyond me. All the 2014 goodwill should have been up a couple years ago already.

Yeah, I know its 'only Nations League' but its not like Germany fielded a bunch of scrubs. That was a strong side.

So this is a very concerning result.

I'm partial to the German NT, but it's always great watching the top dog getting demolished.

^ I mean yeah it was a decent Germany side, but it's still hard to believe guys are getting fully motivated for glorified friendlies. But yeah 6-0 is still a problem, Germany have serious defensive deficiencies.

If you haven't seen the Maradona documentary by Asif Kapadia, it is an absolute must watch.

The European Draw for the world cup is on youtube right now. Van der Vaart has gotten fat.

England, Poland, Hungary, Albania..


The Germany group looks to be no fun with Romania, Iceland and North Macedonia.
