Boo, bring on Adama.

Shearer does this thing where he pretends to have taken some obscure piece of information off the top of his head when really he's just looked it up or been briefed on it beforehand.

Pickford, Walker, Stones, Rice, Mount and Kane are all certainties to start I think. Shaw and Foden highly probable. Sterling likely. Leaves CB and CM open if 433, or CB and RWB if 343.

Don't see why a three of Rice, Mount and Foden couldn't work. They're industrious enough to get around, not like they're a couple of Ozils. Those three with Sancho/Sterling and Grealish either side of Kane. Not going to happen though obviously but it's not outrageously unbalanced.

So much drama over him picking four right backs, as if it matters when you have a 26 man squad.

I already said, I think he's the best of them defensively, or at least not noticeably inferior. They all have a mistake in them, but none are someone other teams can really target as a massive weak link (despite what people say about Trent).
Did Madrid not target him? Seemed like their entire game plan on the night was to get the ball to his side and run at him ... and it worked. I've not seen another FB struggle as badly against Sterling this season in the way that TAA did at Anfield either.

I just find how he's judged to be laughably wrong.
In what sense? Pretty much everyone agrees that he's quality on the ball but defensively questionable. What's laughable about that? Where do you think he ranks defensively amongst the four right backs?

Dont think Shaw over Chilwell is clear cut either tbh, quite a few positions are up in the air.

Liverpool fans love to slander Reece James.

Ramsdale, Godfrey, White, Ward-Prowse, Saka, Watkins plus either one of the RBs, Lingard or Greenwood to miss out.

Some players, and managers, just get the first name treatment. Villa fans call Grealish Jack I've noticed, lots of Leeds fans call Phillips Kalvin, dunno why but I don't think we need to think all that deeply about it
I don't care about fans doing it for their own players, I probably do it too but I don't know of any other player where supposedly impartial commentators refer to them by their first name. Rival fans saying Trent is just weird to me too, do Liverpool or any other fans call Wan-Bissaka 'Aaron' because it's easier? I don't think so.

Calvert-Lewin regularly gets shortened to DCL online tbf
That's fine, as is TAA. Fans and more so commentators/pundits calling him Trent all the time though is complete cringe and I can't think of any other player who gets the first name treatment to that degree. It's all Carragher's fault.

Do you know what I don't like about Trent? The fact that everyone calls him Trent. As if we're all on bezzie mate first name terms. I get that Alexander-Arnold is a long name but so is Calvert-Lewin, yet I don't hear every man and his dog calling him Dom.

Rolling team of the tournament
in Euro 2020/21 Forum
Posted · Edited by brett.spurs
Not watched every game fully but from what I've seen I'll loosely go with:
Olsen
Coufal Lindelof Skriniar Spinazzola
Yarmolenko Locatelli Pogba Insigne
Schick Lukaku
Cheated a bit with Ronaldo on the right but throw in some names and I'll alter it accordingly.
