Hunter2_1 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 (edited) Couple of starting lineup predicitons; Germany: Neuer. Hector, Hummels, Boeteng, Kimmich. Khedira, Kroos. Draxler, Özil, Müller. Werner (4-2-3-1 ish) England: Pickford. Young, Stones, Cahill, Walker, Trippier. Henderson, Alli. Lingard. Sterling, Kane. (3-4-1-2 ish) France: (tough one). Loris. Sidibe, Koscielny, Varane, Mendy. Tolisso, Kante, Pogba. Mbappé, Giroud, Griezmann (4-3-3) I think they go Giroud Spain: DDG. Alba, Ramos, Pique, Carvajal. Alcantara, Busquets. Silva, Isco, Iniesta. Costa (4, ?, ?, ?) Do you think I'm close? Edited June 8, 2018 by Hunter2_1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sterling, Kane I hope you're wrong on England, but have a feeling you're on point. Rose > Young - A natural left footer a LWB is much better Maguire > Cahill - Cahill has had a bang average season and was on the cusp for many fans, Maguire has continued his good form for Leicester Alexander-Arnold > Trippier - This one is tight but I give AA the advantage on set pieces If I could get Euro 2016 Dier I'd pick him over Henderson, but on current form I couldn't. For me Dier was our best player at that tournament. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If France wanna play two up top then integrate Fekir. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Costa (4, ?, ?, ?) Do you think I'm close? France will probably be: Lloris - Sidibé - Varane - Umtiti - Mendy - Tolisso - Kante - Matuidi - Mbappé - Giroud - Griezmann The only two question marks are Matuidi/Tolisso/Pogba and if they play in a 4-2-3-1 who's the midfielder to drop (I think Matuidi) and the attacker to come in (I think Dembélé) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all seriousness, no real weaknesses, but they did struggle in the first half vs Croatia against their high press. They were frustrated. Took Neymar off the bench to unlock them. Perhaps a blue-print of some sort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kempus Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 Tony Adams saying England won't win the World Cup because of all the Spurs players England won't win because they aren't good enough.

The Spurs players are the foundation that this England team is built on and probably the core of the England squad for the next six years or so.
