Swap stones for cahill
Wilshere for drinky
and I'm happy with that, maybe Barkley or sterling for sturridge would be ok too
>>67697634
>wilshere
What? He's shit.
>>67697592
Champs in waiting tbqh
>>67697634
Agree with this lad. We have to play a bit narrower anyway, those are 3 strikers and our wide men are shit. Vardy can run the channels but he's not a winger.
>>67697634
On what planet is Stones better than Cahill?
>>67697634
>stones
>wilshere
kys
>>67697665
Doesnt wheelchair dominate for england pretty much everytime he plays?
>>67697634
Hello, Roy Hodgson.
>>67697716
No, Drinkwater is a far better player. I'd take Delph over Wilshit.
>>67697716
the wilshere fanboys point to his 5 MOTM in qualifying as proof of his quality. unfortunately, these are earned against teams like san marino, literal-not-even-memeing-full-time plumbers.
>>67697716
yes he does, ignore the retards in this thread, he's the only actually creative midfielder we have and the hoofball england retards in this thread want to drop him for >muh work hard and run a lot players
>>67697792
So if he didn't get man of the match in that game that would mean he's even shitter than you think right?
>retard logic
>>67697592
England would probably do pretty well in that line up desu. Sturridge is pretty selfish though so I can't see him working anywhere but as a no 9
Who would you replace Wilshere with in this line-up?
My biggest issue with the England squad is that Antonio wasn't selected. England's wide players are shit, and Woy could easily have dropped one of the Liverpool midfield shitters like Lallana or Henderson for him, or Delph.
Aside from that it's not actually that bad, I agree with the Wilshere pick and sort of agree with only 3 CBs, all the other English CBs like Jagielka just aren't international quality.
Also a bit strange how he picked Townsend because he's on form, but refuses to pick someone like Noble.
>no Rooney
Captain always plays
Still too many Livrpool players
>>67697919
Rooney since you know that Roy will make him start every game. And I don't want to drop anyone else.
>>67697919
>>67698337
yep, although clyne might get the nod
>>67697919
STOP WITH THAT STUPID DIAMON FORMATION IT WONT WORK
HOW AUTISTIC CAN YOU BE
If Woy keeps starting Pooney on the KO stages I'm going to have an aneurysm.
>>67698768
Actually it can.
It requires
>at least one pacy striker
>very offensive wing backs
>a lot of workrate in midfeld
England has all that. So it deserves to be tested. Though it's really hard to play from a tactical point of view.
>>67697830
>Alli
>not creative
Bertrand>Rose
Otherwise good
>>67698792
Would much rather have Rooney in midfield rather than some classicly mediocre England player like Henderson or Milner.
>>67698868
At least they know what they are doing in MF when it comes to position and defending, specially Hendo.
>>67698883
Not to talk about pressing, which is what this team should be doing, given the many Klopp and Pochettino players; do you think Rooney's flabby ass is going to press anyone?
They're going to choke. They always do. There is nothing to discuss.
>>67698894
Just put as many Liverpool and Spurs as you can in the XI, a similar system to those teams and hope for the best.
>>67697592
>Tfw we have the best strike force in Europe
>Shittest defence behind it
>>67698927
Liverpool and Spuds are no Barça and Bayern to be for England what those teams are for Spain and Germany of course, but this strategy of simulating on the NT what the players are familiar with in team football works, since there is no time to come up with anything.
>>67698894
>given the many Klopp and Pochettino players
Literally 0 Liverpool players deserve to be in the starting XI for England.
Clyne is the only one who can stake a claim.
>>67698982
Look, I'm trying to help you in showing what other NTs do and were successful to some extent, if you're too partisan to see it, it's your problem.
>>67698809
>england tests the diamond meme formation in their ezpz group
>it works
>they keep it in the playoffs
>it becomes the new tiki taka and makes them champions
FOOTBALL IS COMING HOME LA
>>67697592
This is actually really good until the final third.
Sturridge over to the right
and Sterling on the left
>Strikers with their strong foot out wide
Also switch Smalling and Cahill round
>>67699072
Just to be clear
------------------Hart---------------
Walker-Smalling-Cahill-Rose
-------------------Dier--------------
---------Drinky---------Alli--------
---Sturridge--Kane--Sterling--
>>67699044
Lyon was really nice to watch last season playing a diamond
>>67699072
>Strikers with their strong foot out wide
>who is Muller
>>67699174
raumdeuter mate
Needs wingers
>>67699320
width supplied by full backs, woy is a big fan of that
this might be it i can't tell what pic i am posting
>>67699320
>wingers
>2016
Fergie pls go
>>67699110
JT always plays on the left which is why I put Cahill on the right.
>Sterling
You really think he should play instead of Vardy? Lmao
>>67699442
when will this drinkwater meme end? Swap him for wilshere and you're golden m8
>>67699442
update: this is what i meant to post
>>67699453
It's not about cramming your best XI players into the team. It's about balance, roles and purpose.
>>67699442
>Alli RCM
urgh
>>67699461
desu i made this before jack came back from injury
it'll be more like this and I'm ok with it
>>67699491
>>Alli RCM
>urgh
he's meant to be on the left but idgaf fampai
The team would naturally switch to a 442 like Ancelotti's Real 433 did
Honestly, I like Wilshere a lot, but he is NOT FIT
How the fuck can you justify throwing him straight in there
>>67699320
There are no wingers available. You gotta come up with a different way to play without them.
>>67699530
>>67699502
>>67697592
STOP
PUTTING
VARDY
ON
THE
RIGHT
WING
>>67698002
Tell that to Jedinak at Palace or Arteta at Arsenal. Also Casillas is still the captain of the Spanish national side but he won't start
>>67699553
>The team would naturally switch to a 442
>>67699535
Must be close to fitness and he now has a few weeks to build it up. In many ways his freshness is an advantage.
>>67699569
Thank you m8
>>67699350
Gonna get exposed, just like Liverpoop got exposed last night
>>67699442
Swap Rooney and Alli senpai.
Guys.. Rooney is playing ridiculously good in midfield recently.
Like a mix of Scholes/Lampard. I really think everything has been solved.
Rooney will play in a midfield 3 and then we can play both Vardy and Kane as forwards.
Rooney will GOAT it up from midfield and finally leave his legacy with England. We are winning the Euros lads.
>>67699442
This is good. Swap Rooney and Alli though. Also Walker instead of Clyne, Clyne is awful.
>>67701612
agree. Rooney playing mid, coming forward into the attack when needed and moving the ball from side to side is the only way to go. His passing has been pinpoint lately
>>67699553
This.
Why is anyone trying to play wingers anyway? It's not like England has anyone worth a shit to play there.
What will Woy realistically play?
>>67701612
You're right actually. That's where he belongs now and I think he's a great option for both England and United. He just doesn't have it to be a striker anymore.
>>67701612
>>67701653
>>67701694
>>67699565
>Also Casillas is still the captain of the Spanish national side but he won't start
Are you new to divegrass?
>Woy will start Rppney because that's what Woy does
>Vincent of the Forest will start Casillas because that's what Vincent does
>we both will shit the bed before semis because the combined IQ of our managers is 160
>>67697592
>No Rooney
Like it of not Roy WILL start him, when picking the Englad squad you can only have 10 players to choose from because Rooney playing is a given
>>67697592
>no Kante
>no Mahrez
enjoy getting knocked out in the group stages
Add Lallana, Ricky Lambert and Carroll
>>67697592
Good post.
Good thread
>>67697592
Bertrand over Rose
Maybe someone else over Sturridge as he willl drift inside too much
Best England squad here
>all those retards putting Vardy on the wing
I swear to fucking god we've learnt nothing from the Gerrard-Lampard dilemma.
>>67697830
>Creative
>Can't Score
>Can't assist
Dier in CB is the patrician choice
this would win guaranteed
>>67708469
Ozil isn't a goalkeeper m8
>>67708469
I know >english goalkeeping is a meme but I still think playing without one isn't going to work.
>>67708481
>>67708483
I was suggesting that England is so far ahead of every other team in terms of talent that the only fair thing to do would be to play with a gk
>>67708499
Oh ok
You're alright, welcome aboard the bandwagon
>>67708499
*without
I'm failing harder than liverpool at the moment
It doesn't matter what players England take to the Euros, they still have fucking Roy Hodgson as manager. They won't make it out of the group.
>>67708525
This
We need to flop early so he goes
WC2018 is ours
>>67708535
Yes, because flopping at the WC helped you...
>>67708588
I have no idea how we wasn't sacked after >1 point in 2014
>>67708588
I would friend her on facebook and then sit in front of messenger for 30 minutes each night with "g-good eve m'lady" typed out but lacking the courage to send it
>>67708775
Do Americans have extra large keyboards to accommodate their fatter than humanly recommended fingers?
>>67708800
>not naked
fuck off aussy
>>67708858
still failing me.......and I am not fat. I box. pretty good shape at the moment
>>67708873
Is replying to me considered your daily exercise?
>>67708926
or are you replying to me?
>the majority of people here unironically saying that Rooney isn't Englel's best player
Kek, his midfield preformance will be you're only legitimate chance of bringing it home
>>67708971
But he's clearly not England's best player. How could you possibly think he is?
We can dance Nobbys dance
We could dance it in France
It's coming home lads
>>67708971
tbf he was decent in the past few games. sick hollywood balls
>>67708971
>>67708995
>>67709255
>>67709727
Let me guess, you mongoloids think Arree Kayan and After Party Man are the best in the country right ?
>>67697592
Why push Vardy out wide? Wouldn't it make more sense to go with the diamond midfield and Kane+Vardy up top?
>>67698844
I think Rose is a little better, but Bertrand is far less likely to do something stupid and get himself sent off.
>>67697748
>delph
Kek
----------------------Hart
Walker-Smalling-Cahill-Rose
---------------------Dier
--------Wilshere---Drinkwater

With Milner coming off the bench if/when Wilshere gets injured.
>>67708391
>rashford
No meme players pls
>>67713499
>shitposting other nations players bc yours suck dick and are irrelevant
>>67698768
Why do you hate Woy's wingless wonders?
>>67698809
it """"can"""" work but the players need to be used to it. you can't just take players (from different clubs) that never used this formation, and make them get used to it without any real practice against a real team.
i would agree with you if their group was super easy but they have russia and wales which can be dangerous, and slovakia can force a draw.
>>67698951
Just like france except they have the best midfield ( tied with Belgium) instead of the best attack
>>67697634
>Swap stones for cahill
yeah just make the team even more inexperienced than it already is. that will end well.
>>67717953
cahill is error prone, I'd rather get the next generation in and Stones is not only a far better footballer he is just a better athlete all around
