Cam is 100% right about letting the opposition worry about us rather than the other way round.

Bellingham and Foden is England's generational talents, and they need to be playing in the middle of the park, so they both should be playing like an 8's and behind them Rice as a 6. Like that they can genuinely control the football matches against the opposition that they faced. Kane dropping deep, and on the wings the pace of Saka and Rashford. And there you go you have the Euros won.

Cams is spot on. The best for Jude Bellingham is at the 10. But the best for the TEAM is Bellingham further back and Foden more advanced.

Not to be offensive but the guy in the middle, dont know ball. Outrageous takes. Hendo should start and Saka on the left. 🤧

This was recorded before Mainoo was called up clearly

Bro said saka on the left. Please yall need to ask some questions before the camera goes on 🙏

A Foden-Bellingham-Rice midfield wouldn’t be as unbalanced as some might think. Foden covers a lot of ground for a pressing team, and Bellingham has played an 8 until this season

If Mainoo is given the chance, he’ll turn Henderson into a bench warmer.

Great video. I’d start Trent RB, invert next to Rice to give England solidity at the back and quality build up while Foden and Jude are further forward. If we’re starting to get overrun, bring Jude back a little to support. Saka, Kane, Rashford up top, Rashford’s ability to burst could be a game changer.

the fact yalll all got pods free of smoke everryting nice frorrealalllllllll

My Team: Pickford Walker, Stones, Maguire, Trent Rice, Bellingham Saka, Foden, Rashford Kane. 4-2-3-1 Out of Possession 3-2-4-1 In possession, Walker slots in to a back 3, Trent comes into midfield with Rice, which will allow Bellingham to push up, Rice + Trent + Bellingham + Foden linking up, with Saka and Rashford running in behind, or as HP said, Foden could overlap Saka to give him the 3 options (shoot, play the ball inside to Bellingham, or reverse ball to Foden)

LW:Rashford ST:Kane RW:Saka Midfield Trio: Foden Rice Jude LB:Tripper CB’s:Maguire & Stones RB: Walker (Saka needs the overlap that Walker offers and we need the defensive impact as the CB and midfield isn’t our strong point) GK:Pickford….this whole Saka on the left is nonsense and Trent invert in is nonsense, we have to allow the players to have a simple system as the team is playing an international tournament, they don’t have alot of time to train and develop as a team.

We could literally have the English version of Xavi and Iniesta with Foden and Bellingham

Absolutely agree with cam 💙

It is impossible to have both Foden and Bellingham in midfield since they play the same position. It would not work when defending. Therefore, sacrificing Bellingham's freedom to make his runs inside the box is necessary. You need someone next to Rice who is comfortable on the ball, can carry it forward and is great at defending.

The geeza in the middle, say it with chest, its bait you want to play henderson, instead of saying "what southgate is going to do"

I would love to see these 3 MAINOO, RICE, BELLINGHAM, playing together for once please

Bro in middle ain’t scared ok most goals scored and least suffered in group stage 🇵🇹 força Portugal 🙏🏻

Pickford Walker Maguire Stones Trent Rice Foden Jude Saka Kane Grealish In possession 3-2-4-1 Grealish over Rashford because Grealish provides some defensive cover, he can win fouls, hold width, put runners in behind (Foden/Jude), put in a cross, retain possession etc etc. Dirty work player who gets the job done and that’s what is needed. Trent inverting alongside Rice from the left, Trent will find a pass anywhere on the pitch no need to worry. This allows both of your most in form midfielders to be higher up the pitch (both Jude and Foden on 28 G/A for club this szn) and change the game. Foden and Saka linking up on the right would be a PROBLEM. The overlapping runs and cutbacks/crosses, opening up space for eachother to bang a shot in, foden has shown this season he has a rocket from outside the box, and saka can curl one in. Grealish on the left to feed balls into Kane/ Bellingham, Bellingham and Foden making runs in behind (Trent, Stones, Saka, Kane, Grealish, Rice) all to find balls in behind to these 2 as well. Keep in mind both Foden and Jude are in form of their life, 28 G/A. In defense I’m thinking a 442 or 451. Kane and Foden up top in a 442, no need to explain the danger Foden causes on the counter. First touch, the turns, through balls, dribbles he has it all. Kane is always going to be a problem. Grealish LM Saka RM and the rest is self explanatory for the 442. In the 451 it’s just everyone drops back, Grealish LM Saka RM, Rice Jude Foden in midfield. If you’ve watched city this season you know Foden can put in a defensive shift, just needs some physicality next to him and Jude/Rice legit is the best pairing possible for that. Foden and Jude maybe higher than everyone leading the press at times, but Foden when he gets the ball on the half turn is unstoppable. This is a team that will not only win the euros but dominate the tournament, it all relies on this midfield. Foden, Jude, Rice is the key

Pickford Shaw stones maguire walker (Gomez/trippier instead of shaw maybe) Bellingham rice trent Foden kane saka (Rashford potentially depending on form near tournament)

What’s crazy about this England team is the players that didn’t get picked, Sancho Eze Gibbs White, Loftus Cheek Tommori, Angel Gomes Ben White there’s probably more, the team is stacked to the brim

My XI - Pickford, Gomez, Stones, Maguire, Trent, Rice, Bellingham, Maddison, Foden, Kane and Saka. Trent inverts into the midfield and it becomes a back 3 of Gomez, Stones and Maguire to protect the defence. Rice rhetorical destroyer, Trent controller that lays passes to Saka on the others. Maddison and Bellingham are pressing machines. The midfield will be very hard to beat. Then Foden, Kane and Saka front 3. Not much too say, they’re the best front 3. In my formation, the defence is protected, midfield is very strong, and the best front 3 is on the pitch.

England have 6 or 7 world class players that have to start. Stones, Walker, Trent, Rice, Bellingham, Saka, Foden Kane. The best way to get them in without complicating things for southgate is 4-2-3-1 formation with Bellingham as SS and Trent playing next to Rice in midfield. Foden should dictate our attacking play so he should be getting a free role off the left and our LB and Declan Rice will work hard on that side to provide width. Simple.

We can all agree, Jude and Declan is the central midfield partnering. As long as they remain injury-free! Foden in the 10. Madders to compliment the 10 as well Both players can operate on the flanks if necessary

Kobbie Mainoo just got called up so obviously he is their

The timing of this podcast is so unlucky, I feel for you boys. How is it that as soon as you record this Kobbie pulls off a subhanallah performance against Liverpool and he's called up to the first team. That boy is special and he's been wonderful in training clips too. Definitely needs a proper mention in the next pod

Id play Madders Bellingoal and Rice.. Foden would have to interchange RW with Saka depending on who we play

What Gareth will probably do: Hendo-Jude-Rice Saka-Kane-Foden What a person with any common sense SHOULD do Foden-Rice-Jude Saka-Kane-Gordon I also really hope by some miracle Shitegate takes Jamie Bynoe-Gittens. I know he's not a starter rn at club level. But he's low-key been pretty solid for BVB. He's def got the potential to be the left winger for the next decade. Like Kobbie, it would go to have him around to learn

how many leaders do you need in a starting eleven. Walker, rice stones maguire chilwell shaw kane etc. theres no case to made for jordan henderson start becuase he's a leader

100% agree with Kams sekections Trent inverted will cook

I'm personally southgate out and have been for a very long time. Whilst he does ok in tournaments, the places hes got to are bare minimum and hes shown that he doesnt have the capability to win massive games. He has never made this england team be as good as i truly believe it can be. I think we need someone who can fully make the most out of the talent that england have to offer. Not to mention you have to bring up the amount of crazy decisions hes made when picking squads, alot of players such as tomori and many upcoming stars like gordon, palmer have and will nost likely continue to gain no massive experience at an international level because southgate seems to have favourites and has FAR to much loyalty to his players, almost as if hes scared to upset them such as henderson. I truly believe that he has never made this england team to be scared off because we are just that consistent and he doesnt seem to know how to fully use the potential in this team. We often find ourselves "struggling" against teams we should be beating and even struggling to completely destroy teams that we should be completely destroying like 2-0 victorys over teams we should be beating like 6-0. Whilst i understand this is a part of football SOMETIMES, i definitely think this happens far more often then it should.

The Spain squad that won the world cup copied Pep's formation. With Iniesta, Xavi and Busquete. About 6 or so Barca players. The Germany squad that won the world cup did the same with about 6 or 8 Bayern players. England should do same. City are currently the best. So just copy them and win. This should be the line up. Pickford Walker, Maguire, Shaw Stones Rice Bellingham, Foden Saka, Kane, Rashford/Gord Stones will move to midfield and support Rice. This is the formation to win England the Euros. Simplicita

Mainoo,Rice & Bellingham

When it comes to Southgate I feel like even if we win the sentiment will be it was despite Southgate. If we win it will be about quality of players rather than a tactical master class

Pickford Walker Stones Maguire Shaw (if fit)/Trippier Rice Bellingham Saka Foden Rashford Kane

Grealish can't be an option. He can buy the drinks in Ibiza with Sancho and Lingard. Zero goal threat or game changing ability. What's the point? Rice, Bellingham, Foden midfield 3 (Could be another Scholes/Gerrard/Lampard situation trying to force them in) Rashford, Kane, Saka front 3. Ball to feet winger and direct game breaking winger that can thrive off transitions against the big teams and Kane needing runners.

Respect rashfords ting, the collective media dickeat is annoying, glad they mentioned he was the top goal scorer wit saka not getting the same minutes at all, scored against all the big 6 this season

I'd go with; . Pickford White Stones Tomori Livramento Palmer Foden Rice Grealish Kane Toney Trent, Walker, Bellingham, Rashford and Saka can all kick rocks. - Trent isn't a good RB or CM, but people think "ok how bout he does a half job at both". Fuck off - Walker has always been overrated, but now he's even more dusted - Bellingham is bang average. Actually go watch the Madrid games, he gets G/A but he's dead. - Rashford, don't even joke with that one. - Saka isn't anything special. He is a good player but there are much better in that position. Even Eze at RW would be better. Saka is too predictable

My team: Pickford Walker-Stones-Maguire-Chilwell Trent-Rice-Bellingham Saka-Kane-foden

bro if we had fede valverde in our team everything would have been sorted

Foden played with an injury during the World cup in a position he's least comfortable in. Can't use that against him lol

If you play Foden as a 10 and Bellingham as 8. Watch bellingham play he bombs super forward even past strikers.... This will leave Rice completely exposed. The Answer is balance and you need play either Gallagher, Trent or Mainoo in the 8. Foden can overload from LW instead of Rashford.

This team should have won a Euros. It’s actually CRIMINAL Southgate is managing this talent, Pep would of won it all by now even France wc they were there for the taking man

Foden is a midfielder and if you are a foden fan as much as you love KDB and B.silva when one of them leaves for good you will realise just how high foden’s ceiling is. as good as he is on the wing he’s wasted out there. Foden on the half turn is deadly probably the best in world football, you can’t catch him and his decision making to find a pass, beat a player or take a shot is just deadly. Southgate isn’t smart enough to see it that’s why he plays a double pivot foden needs to be thru the middle

Walker Stones Another CB And obviously a LB Rice in the 6 Trent on the right Jude on the left Kane as the 9 Foden on the left Saka on the right This gives the team the best balance imo, Foden and Jude are not the guys you want in a defensive capacity when under pressure, when the teams in transition and when the team doesn't have the ball its very naive to have them two in a midfield 3. It's all good having the ballers but the team needs balance. Plus if Trent plays as a RB/ inverted in a team with Foden and Jude in midfield yes you may solve the issue in midfield as Trent doubles up with Rice but then you become mighty exposed at RB. Trents game was based on Liverpools midfield running like donkeys allowing him to play. Walker needs to play RB to keep it solid Trent needs to play in midfield to offer something both offensively and defensively and Foden needs to play in a position where he doesn't have to worry about his defensive duties. But it's opinions.

So you’re not actually fans, just glory supporting, nice! 👌

We need a champions league 2024 quarter finals predictions🙏🏽

😅 My passport Dutch but i feel African 🎉 i grew up in england and eat Rice with Banana, where im i from 😂

HIT THE LIKES N ENJOY❤️

Pickford Walker Stones Maguire Shaw Rice Mainoo Saka Bellingham Foden Kane

I believe England's problem is the system and style of play, Southgate won't bring England anything. The FA should appoint a total football minded manager to make best use of those players as they are being used and flourishing into their best abilities in their club teams by Pep and Arteta, Man City and Arsenal play the best systematic, fun flowing football in the world. Xavi would be a great candidate to lead this national team to glory by forming a squad of Man City and Arsenal combine XI with the pep/arteta system. Pickford (or a better ball playing keeper) Walker, White, Stones, Shaw Rice, Jude, Foden Saka,Kane, Grealish/Rashy Where Stones or White joins Rice in midfield and allows Jude and Foden to play higher up as a 8,5 in a box midfield.

Life peaked when Trippier scored that free kick vs Croatia. It's been downhill ever since.

It has to be Bellingham Rice Foden I think. That's what I wanna see.

Talk about crack! Harry is moving mad !

we all know southgate is playing a 5 back 😂

Bellingham has to be more attacking, why can’t Stones play alongside Rice and have Konsa, Guehi as the CB partnership or Gomez but he should be LB.

We argubly have the best talents for once so why cant we take the game to them for once? We tried to protect in 2021. It flopped. 2022 we went out as well . Bellingham literally won bundesliga poty as a CM, tracking back doing recovery runs etc. Play foden as a 10.

I agree with Fred. Jude has to play the 10 not deeper, no point wasting his strength. Issue is who plays with Rice

If england wants to win you need to play a front 6 of kane foden saka mainoo bellingham rice. Foden is better upfront rather then midfield

Foden has to start

It's a tragedy if Phil doesn't start

Foden is being played out of his best position though, under Southgate, so it makes no sense to hold his bad performances for England against him, when the coach sets him up to fail by playing him on the wing. Rather then as a 10.

Why would you shift England’s best player 2 years running for someone Saka benched at the last WC?? Play foden in the 10 or LW

Harry why would you have Foden in the pivot

Saka has already cooked on the left for England. So why would we move him from his best position? No one played better for England than Saka over the last 2-3 years.

Since the turn of the year rashford has been very good, just because he doesnt score you lot think he hasnt been

6 Declan Rice 8 Jude Bellingham 10 Phil Foden

You can tell who watches Jude and who doesn't. Play Jude further back lol. You know what give the keys to Foden since the prem fans only watch 1 league. Just dont be expecting Jude to save your team when shit hits the fan.

8:20 Southgate aint that guy man

Also cams bias towards foden is insane. How are u saying he’s not creating when the game is tight??? Cmon man. We get it u like foden

putting saka on the left should be a crime bannable from watching football. dont allow that guy back on the pod again

You dont accommodate foden by putting saka on the left. That's ridiculous

My xi is Pickford Walker Stones Maguire Shaw Jude Rice and Kobie (he’s going but under Jude and Rice will have the exp next to guide him) Saka Kane Rashford Foden, Palmer and Grealish can all be quality sub impact players

The Toni Kroos comment is delusional

cams you’re about trent thing but instead put Kobbie in there

rashford shouldn't play over pretty much any forward that has been selected, coming from a united fan

Everyone talking about Jude sacrificing his game for the team when his upside is clear of fodens upside. Fodens should be the one to sacrifice for the team. If he wants to play , left wing.

Bellingham Foden and rice would never work internationally

Fred and HP have institutionalised by Southgate. WE HAVE THE BEST PLAYERS BAR FRANCE. Rice plays as a lone 6 with Havetz and ode. Same profiles as Jude & foden. I’m hearing names like hendo 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

i can tell dude in the middle a liverpool fan man wants to play that scrub Hendo n Trent in midfield who can't defend n will get found out against a top country 👎

The guy in the middle stopped me completing this video, horrible takes.

Fred don’t know ball man

Fred don't know ball loooool

Who is this guy putting Saka , 2nd best Rw in the world in the left to put that foden guy in rw , who not even is a winger! Madnesss....stopped watching this video after hearing that bullshit opinion

LW:Rashford ST:Kane RW:Saka Midfield Trio: Foden Rice Jude LB:Tripper CB’s:Maguire & Stones RB: Walker (Saka needs the overlap that Walker offers and we need the defensive impact as the CB and midfield isn’t our strong point) GK:Pickford….this whole Saka on the left is nonsense and Trent invert in is nonsense, we have to allow the players to have a simple system as the team is playing an international tournament, they don’t have alot of time to train and develop as a team.
