I think that's more to do with the limitations of their e-commerce system than a decision they've made.

You're giving Mike Ashley more credit than he deserves.

Unfortunately in retail, it's common that any 'total price discount' nullify any other discounts that may have applied.

[bigdunk]

Looks like a 4231, with probably Trippier at left back to me.

Its the default setting of most e-commerce sites to only allow one offer per customer. Anything "free" will be an offer under the hood - so once you apply another one it cancels the first.

I've spent all day writing a proposal for an e-commerce implementation for a luxury retailer so its on my mind

[sc91]

Coady and Mings as the defense two?

Eeeek.

[Rob1981]

Scenes when Lingard bangs in a hat-trick and they've already told him he can't go.

[craigcwwe]

Our CB options outside of Maguire and Stones are trash.

6 months old but I cba to look further, the point is, we do not need JWP

I don’t think most* of the Saints fans even think JWP should have gone tbh. I certainly couldn’t make a case for him over someone else as an impact sub, and he certainly isn’t starting in any scenario (except multiple deaths perhaps)

(*Obviously there are notable exceptions)

which is a shame, because Godfrey, Tomori and White are better than Coady and Mings

[skybluedave]

Yeah that's a 4231 right? 

Completely forgot there was a game tonight

Absolutely mad that Tomori was overlooked imo

[pearcey_90]

**** 1-0 win. Trippier Free Kick that's nodded in by someone like Coady.

I get Mings because he's left footed, but Coady must have some serious leadership qualities to be brought in over someone like Tomori

[skybluedave]

Actually quite excited for this. Centre backs aside it's quite an exciting team. Wanna see Bellingham and Grealish have great games and push their cases for first 11. Trent having a point to prove. Saka too. Would have been better if Sancho started over Lingard but he's been ill apparently

[craigcwwe]

Interesting that only 10 players in this squad were also in the 2018 WC squad. 

[ajw10]

if Southgate really thinks that Maguire and Henderson might not play, 1) why the **** has he taken them? and 2) why not take more CBs over RBs?

At this moment in time I can't see Maguire lining up for the opening game.

Has he said anything about them? Henderson is on bench today. See if he gets any time or if he's just filling out the bench

He said that any minutes we get out of them is a bonus.

yeah, although I'm not sure if he meant for the first game or for the whole tournament?

He could also be lying, but I just can't shake off my mistrust of Southgate

[skybluedave]

ITV pundits talking about how tough tonight is for Lingard as it cuts to hin laughing and joking during his warm up 

[ajw10]

Eni Aluko is a dreadful pundit (and person)

I took it as he meant the whole tournament. 

Clearly Henderson is further along than Maguire on the fitness front.

It's so lazy as well because Lingard's best form has been through playing centrally

[Andrew_]

Lingard starts?  

[Butts]

More knobheads present tonight then.

[ajw10]

England fans in being scum shock

[Heartwork]

Yup you can tell this game is happening in the north east

Yeah. Terrible. At least the clapping tried to drown it out. Almost

[Darren Moores Mum]

Booing...

Fawning over the return of fans and then you realise a lot of them are utter *****. 

[Butts]

Also we're still meant to be wearing masks in stadiums right?

Shut up man, would have been booed at Wembly as well ffs

Stop that now....think of the narrative ffs

[craigcwwe]

Quality from Kane there. 

[ajw10]

great from Kane, bit greedy from Trent

[skybluedave]

How slow was Coady there?

Come on man they've been waiting over a year for the chance to be racist at a football stadium

[ajw10]

Well this is worrying

[skybluedave]

It didn't look that bad on Saka but he was down for a while there

[Butts]

This is looking like a terrible choice of friendly so far.

[ajw10]

The Austrians know this is a friendly, right?

If we wanted a game against a team we would smash we'd have not gone for Austria. 

They are a good test, good pressing from the front. 

 

[aiston]

I like Southgate's plan, thoroughly smash any optimism England fans have so anything we do in the Euro's looks good.

I meant the fact they've smashed people on 3 occasions already

[Smallen]

Quite like Grealish centrally for England. He draws so many players towards him when he gets the ball.

Oh. In that case, yeah. They're a bit tough so far!
