Your England starting 11


O'reilly at left back for me hes a huge threat far better than shaw or the lad from Newcastle.
Worried about the defense like. Cb is a weak area for England
I think shaw is a big threat going forwards, but he’s also rock solid at the back.

I know it’s a limited set of data, but I wasn’t convinced by o’reilly when I’ve seen him play for England so far
 
Can't believe he hasn't picked Wharton.

Wharton Rice should be the starting centre mids. Anderson is an attacking midfielder and should start there.

Can't believe so many teams make this mistake.
 
My 26, with the starting 11 basically being the first name of each line, would be as follows:

Pickford, Henderson, Pope
James, Trent
Konsa, Stones
Guehi, Maguire, Burn
O'Reilly, Hall
Wharton, Mainoo
Bellingham, Gibbs White
Rice, Anderson
Saka, Palmer
Eze, Rodgers, Gordon
Kane, Watkins, DCL

As per my above message. I too would be picking Wharton in the first 11, let alone the 26 man squad!

I rate stones but there are questions marks re his fitness and the amount of games in under a month would be a big ask. Ditto with James
Reckon we need an X factor player like Eze to pull off something spectacular
 
Loads of rumours flying about tonight about who has been left out of the squad, put that out of your mind though and imaging you’re the gaffer and so you pick the squad; who would you start?

For me:

….…………………..Kane

Bellingham…..Rodger’s……..Saka

……….…..Anderson…..Rice

Shaw ...Maguire ...Guehi ….James

……………………Pickford

Left wing feels like a weak area for me. I think I’d try Bellingham out there. I like Rashford off the bench, I feel he’s a lot more effective that way
Good luck getting Shaw U Maguire on the plane to the USA
 
It is absolutely mental the number of thread and posts on here, that show a formation and starting 11

And then the OP does his upside down.
OP is correct. England are playing away so the home team would be at the top.
Or a meringue. 😆
And I couldn't give a rats. Won't be watching much anyway.

I agree on the defence - I just think there's a lack of options. I would generally pick Alexander-Arnold over James but with O'Reilly being very advanced on the left, you probably need the defensive solidity.

Eze would be an option from the left mind. Then you could move Rogers central and drop Bellingham back into the 8 to replace Anderson.
