Lew-T Posted November 18, 2020 Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 I still worry about our defending and the players we have in there. But the attacking play has been great to watch! Should be 4 or 5 up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you saw what was essentially a second string U23 side last night and some of the skills on show you’d definitely be optimistic about the next 10/12 years Ironically we suddenly have a wealth of Grealish / Sancho / Hudson Odoi type players (Happy days) But if we lack , it’s in the more traditional British Strengths of defended minded players and great defenders. Sourhgate and successor(s) certainly have plenty of assets to deploy - just need to get the blend right (I think we will win a tournament in next 10/12 yrs) 4 minutes ago, Kodjias Wrist said: It was a great feet for them given their population and pool to choose from.

Out of curiosity I checked that Magnússon played against Denmark at the weekend and he did. Got booked so imagine he is suspended. Anyway, back to attack v defence . . .

Lrrr Posted November 18, 2020 Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 Sorry but thats a dive from Saka, that small a tug from a player does not make you go off your feet like that, Saka knows exactly what he's doing there. Not saying going for any sort of pulling back of a player is right but that was so soft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephenkibby. Posted November 18, 2020 Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 Got bored with it so watched the last 30mins of Hungary v Turkey. Nagy really good wasted one pass, always looking around for danger real team player with total concentration. Following on from his performance against Cardiff really hope he starts Saturday and is given a run in the side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted November 18, 2020 Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 I mentioned on the Belgium thread earlier this week, the difference Grealish can make in international football. I exampled how he is someone who can win you free kicks around the box, and how important set pieces are in international football, particularly against your ‘Iceland’s’. It’s often something like that which you need to break down the stubborn and compact defences. Grealish did that for the opening goal. That opens the game up. I also exampled how he runs at people and creates space for others. The 2nd goal started with Grealish picking the ball up in a CM position and running directly with the ball toward the heart of their defence. This broke the lines and created a chance, which was then recycled and resulted in a goal. It’s these type of things that can make a difference in the tightness of international football. As I said in the previous thread, the lad should have 40 caps by now. Long may it continue. On a wider perspective, Grealish/Mount/Foden together in a team is definitely something to be excited about. It doesn’t have to be 1 or 2 of these, it CAN be all 3. Mount has been excellent in the central mid role, popping up in all areas, and both Grealish and Foden offer you the ability to open teams up.

Engvall’s Splinter Posted November 18, 2020 Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 To think Grealish would’ve still been waiting in the wings if it wasn’t for injuries and misdemeanours forcing Southgate’s hand. The lad was ready at the mid part of last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can see the technical differences in the players coming through now. I’d be happy with a front 6 of Henderson/Winks Mount Foden Grealish Sterling Kane just need to sort the defence now!
