Isn’t it Purple ?
Well that was fun.
I helped Posh Seats with his housework.

Also poch to England is something that had been mooted in the media, I haven't pulled it out of my arse. I think even he has spoken about it at one stage.
Just go 4-3-fucking-3 and go for it. We should be far better going forward than we'll ever be defensively no matter who we play there and how many we play at the back. We'll ship goals but we should also be capable of scoring plenty too against sides that will try to take the game to us.
Pope
James or Trippier
Coady
Gomez
Chilwell
Phillips
Maitland-Niles
Barkley
Grealish
Sterling
Kane
You could even drop Kane back and play Sterling as the furthest forward and let Kane work his magic as he does with Son week in, week out. Barkley can be frustrating but he can run with the ball and he can just concentrate on his attacking play with Maitland-Niles and Phillips behind him. Not that I love AMN or anything, but Rice is fucking shit. Ireland dodged a bullet with him switching! Seriously, count how many times he will throw his head in the air during a game because he messed something up. Alexander-Arnold has a wand of a right peg but he's yet to show anything like his Liverpool form for England. Went for Grealish on the basis that technique wise he's our best player and someone that can produce a bit of something from nothing.

How did Southgate get that job anyway, has he had any previous successes as manager ?
He's brilliant at saying "Yes, sir!" to the FA.
TWO proper wide men please (not Mount/Grealish)..... Sick of wonky formations.
433 (Grealish in the MF3)
or
4231 (Grealish as CAM)
I'd have loved to but Rashford has been pants since football resumed and to me looks burned out, and Sancho has done absolutely nothing in an England shirt as of yet apart from the one game he scored a couple of tap ins. Suppose Saka on the left could be an option but I'm not sure yet what his best position actually is.
Got Boro relegated and tbf, after visiting the town last year in the cup, that was a bloody brilliant success for the Premier league.
Either play an orthadox system(*) or find a way to cram your in-form players in........ We're doing neither atm.
(*International football isn't the place to reinvent the wheel; formation/system-wise.)
you have to grow the Tash that Cesar Romero had under the makeup if you do 60s Joker
if you never noticed it before behold:
Southgate will stay he's got "passion" which for the England team is more important than a brain apparently.
