The fact Luke Shaw is even being considered means the answer is 'yes'! 😂

@iancook5832 20 күн бұрын

Joe Gomez & Dan Burn are all we need. Trippier can fit there is required as well.

Trippier is having the worse season in history, if he makes it to Euros then........

Burn clear yes, Gomez no. Maybe Charlie Taylor as backup.

Tyrick mitchell is surely due a call up

Lewis Hall is a possibility, has played well recently at LB for Newcastle

Trippier walks it at LB for me. Gomez as backup.

@kevinpillay6103 20 күн бұрын

Have you seen Trippier play this season? Sadly been way off the pace. But this spot is very limited as Mitchell from Palace has no experience at this level.

@TheLeechaolan15 19 күн бұрын

Dan Burn and Charlie Taylor have been amazing for years. Unfortunately Matt Targett hasnt played much for couple years now. Gomez is not good enough. Trippier is great but he isnt class defensively, but better than Trent.

If Shaw gets picked and plays at Euros; ETH should be sacked if he is not already as he should be able to stand up and say no you need time to fully recover.He has played 15 PL games this seaon and as an important player for us he is not reliable so he must take the summer off to completey recover.

Leif there he is…

@FPL_Bantam 20 күн бұрын

Nope. This summers defensive selection should be all about flexibility and players that cover multiple positions...Trippier, even though he's a RB, is the best LB we have. Colwill, Walker, Gomez, Stones, Shaw, White (if he changes his mind), all players that can cover at least 2 positions..in some cases 3 or 4 positions. The idea would be to minimise defensive selections to a max of 8 or 9, so we can take 14 midfielders/attackers...thats where our strength lies. We do not want to see 12 defenders Gareth, be warned!

@Froge0 20 күн бұрын

Rico Lewis can play there and gives a lot of options in other positions. I think Mitchell is also a shout.

@kingshango796 20 күн бұрын

Always why Mitchell is always overlooked despite his consistency.

@TheLeechaolan15 19 күн бұрын

England's best LB's of the past 5 years are Dan Burn, Luke Shaw and Charlie Taylor. But Rico Lewis must be in the squad. Max Kilman is a backup option also. Mitchell, Hall and Chilwell are not good enough, but Mitchell will get there within few years.

Yes that's why we should go to a Back 3. Free up the space for another Mid/Forward where we are stronger. Play to our strengths but gareth is a plank. 3-2-4-1

@@a-walpatches6460 not bad, apart from Trent you chose a fairly obvious line-up, similar to Southgate. But it is not our best squad.

@a-walpatches6460 17 күн бұрын

@@TheLeechaolan15 It's not similar to Southgate, he won't play Foden, Saka and Palmer together, I hope he does but I doubt it. TAA is there to play in midfield while we have the ball, James/Walker would have to stay back to make a back three. I think that is our best team, not sure what makes you think you're the expert judging everybody else's teams.

what about Kieran Trippier? He can play left back and then you could havewalker. At right back.

@@Daggerworda Shaw is not always fit, and the others you mentioned are not good enough. Trippier, Kilman or Rico Lewis can play in LB, but we need a class natural LB like Dan Burn and Charlie Taylor.

Gareth Southgate needs to be reminded that Lewis Hall & Tyrick Mitchell do actually exist.

@TheLeechaolan15 19 күн бұрын

So do Dan Burn and Charlie Taylor, both better than Shaw for over 5 years. Mitchell will get to that level within few years, but both are not good enough yet. Rico Lewis, Trippier and Max Kilman can play LB also. Gomez and Chilwell are not good enough. Targett hasnt played much last 2 seasons.

@@TheLeechaolan15 To be fair, Shaw has shown to be quite a good LB over the years. Heck he was almost our player of the tournament in Euro 2020. Regardless, I agree that both Burn & Taylor should be called up before the Euros at least. Especially when Shaw will not be fully fit when the Euros start. I also suggested Mitchell start getting call ups now to prevent Jamaica from calling up instead in the immediate future.

@TheLeechaolan15 19 күн бұрын

@@MrSmith1984 Shaw is a great LB indeed, but Burn and Taylor have been class defensively. As long Chilwell doesnt play, he has always been massively overrated, terrible defender and overrated on the ball also. Nearly got Leicester relegated after they won the EPL. Mitchell will get there in a couple of years, he could be called up, and good point.

@MrSmith1984 19 күн бұрын

@@TheLeechaolan15 Considering that there are 3-4 options at LB even without Shaw, there is no need to play Tripper out of position at LB. Otherwise I don't disagree with your views on the matter.
