At least Mount has finally been dropped. That is long overdue.

Bringing in Hendo to shore up that midfield against the hard running threat of Messrs Allen and Ramsey

2 defensive midfielders against Wales, Southgate is absolutely tragic.

[Leicester_Loyal]

Southgate makes me so angry.

[Hammo]

Trippier, Mount, Sterling and Saka were all dreadful v USA and deserve to be dropped.

 

I’d say the changes are all positive ones with the exception of Henderson. And I think maybe Wales would be more fearful of Grealish than Rashford.

 

For a variety of reasons Maddison was never going to start this game, so anyone bemoaning his absence needs to take their blue tinted specs off.

[HybridFox]

Southgate making the same mistake again. Harry Kane will be burnt out come the knockout games

No Maddison then.. 

 

Come on Wales ! 

According to that, he’s on the bench or do they have the whole squad that’s not starting as subs

Should have just put Match of the Day 

[Scotch]

To be honest, from a neutral POV, going with a defensive side makes sense. Wales need to win by 3 and England are always going to have players who can produce a bit of magic at the other end.

Nice preemptive profile pic there

[Ric Flair]

Maddison on the bench? I see all the lists naming 14 subs with only Ben White missing but that's not correct is it?

Henderson, Bellingham and Rice is far too defensive.

Bellingham defensive? Maybe by true position but he is a proper box to box player

[purpleronnie]

So a Wales win and an Iran draw wills see both us and Wales through?  I'll take that.

Pretty much it I think. The whole squad is available from the bench. Not sure where White is though.

[Diffco]

Think Madders will get a cap tonight

It’s the combination of the 3 for me. No problems with Bellingham per se

[HybridFox]

Maddison not even showing on skybet ffs

Funny old game though. You can just see it happening, Bale to play the game of his life, ward to suddenly become a salmon, Kane and maguire to have a mare. 

I agree it is a funny old game but Bale is an old man now and I really can't see Ward coming to the rescue. As for Kane & Maguire what you say is quite conceivable.
