Aside from your world class attacking players and our world class defender (Christensen) and much better keeper, England and Denmark look quite similar. I mean, you’ll be 75-85 % favorites against us, but both teams were running the show, scored and let the opponent in the game later on. Both coaches get criticized for not keeping the intensity and subbing too late.
 

Denmark’s strongest side used to be defense and the solid spine up through midfield, but we’ve been so painfully fragile the last couple of years. Peak Kjaer instead of big Jannik would make me much more confident. I really hope we can make better use of Hojlund’s pace, but I fear you’ll cut through our left side like laser through very slowly flowing melted butter.

Can see it being a real drab game. We'll probably edge it with an individual bit of magic but we certainly won't blow you away

The thought of Saka running at Kristiansen and Vestegaard gives me the absolute fear as a Leicester fan but sheer joy as an England fan. They are the players to target on Thursday.

I'm almost certain Vestegaard will move into the centre of the 3 on Thursday. No idea why he was on the left in the first game, absolute suicide.

We might play 433 leaving Vesty out. We haven’t looked solid in that formation though.

Be good to see us go 3-5-1-1 totally dominate the midfield 

 

                  Pickford

      Walker   Stones.   Gueui

                  Rice

Saka.  Trent.  Foden.  Bowen

               Bellingham 

                Kane

Rodgers didn't have the luxury of a £1.1 billion squad. Southgate, on the other hand, is squandering our generational talent.

Yet his tournament record is pretty good. 

You can't really gauge the value of the squad as the PL causes inflated player values.

 

So many people assume it's easy to win a Euro/WC, but knockout tournaments are notorious in that regard. 

This is a great England squad with a lot of talent, but many sides of similar or higher quality have failed to win.

 

England have had some great coaches 'fail' in the past with arguably even more standout players, but I'm not surprised England fans point the finger once more at the coach. You never learn...

0-0 on thursday.

[Leicesterpool]

Interesting fact England have not won all three group games in over 30 years.

Some well known faces in there. Leicester in Germany.

Kristiansen's best ever game in a City shirt was playing against Saka

I may be in the photo but not going to reveal myself. The atmosphere with 99% of fans us and others is great but you always have that 1% of dickheads unfortunatly. Now hoping for a Sweaties battering 

[Super_horns]

Same England  team for tomorrow?

 

Hopefully get more out of Kane and Foden.

I think he needs to find better balance, Foden in at 10 and Bellingham moves into TAA’s spot… play Gordon on the left.

Bellingham has to play higher up. No point shifting him back when he's the form player in the side. He gets his goals and influence playing higher up. He shouldn't be sacrificed for Foden. 

[spacemunky]

Would like to see Gordon and Palmer in this one.

[Jon the Hat]

Come on lads!  I can actually watch this one as it is an 11pm kick off.  Please don't be dull, or indeed holding on desperately to a 1-0 lead for the last half hour.

[Guest Col city fan]

More Southgate. Start well, score, sit back and get nervy. The opposition get on the front foot.. Mad last 20 mins trying to defend the lead.

Rinse and repeat.

This man is clearly a master of his craft with his classic Badge In stance. 

 

Insisted on holding the bottom right corner of the flag just to get a perfect stretch of the arm and widen the exposure of the badge. Beautiful.

 

A solid 8/10. If you are just starting out your Badge In journey, look no further than this. Practice it, perfect it, and you will have the fundamentals to master more advanced Badge In techniques for years to come.

You wouldn't see this kind of headline on any other country. We got crazy people here.
