My Best England Team

Hart
Clyne Stones Smalling Shaw
Drinky Dier
Walcott Sterling Sturridge
Rashford

Failhill is shiiit, should never play for England omg he's so bad. I'd have like Micah Richards ahead of Gary Failhill
I don't like Rose or Walker, not good enough all round imo.
Henderson is garbage. Only good thing he's ever done in his life is that goal against us. Furrrking typical.
Lingard wtf this guy needs to be playing in league 2 with Aldershot or Stockport County, how is in the England squad?
Alli ain't good enough yet but he's got potential.
Why is Gibbs in the squad too, I haven't seen this dude in like 3 years I think lol. Idk who Antonio or Keane are so I can't say anything about them although they must be pretty lame if I've never even heard of them, Oxford Chamberlain is bad, Rooney the fat parasite needs to furrrk off from England and Manchester United and just move to China or USA so he can stop holding everyone around him back the greedy cuuuunt. I like Vards, should still be a sub. Townsend is bad and who the literal hell is Pickford. Like what? Who is this? Pickford? What?

What do you think dudes?

Aside from yesterday, from all the England performances I've seen from Wilshere and Henderson, Wilshere has been better.

That's why wheelchair got sacked off to the bench.

He's been injured.

I think you'll get a similar opinion from most neutrals TBH, and I am a neutral. I should be the last person defending Wilshere, but the truth he has more talent than Henderson and his England performances overall have been better.

Wilshere was shocking at the Euro's, that's why he was dropped to the bench. He's been back to fitness and playing at Bournemouth, yet hasn't been picked for the squad. That says it all.

Wilshere is a talented player that offers very little. He has a decent passing range, that is it.

Play them both with Dier surely?

Wasn't Henderson also poor at the last WC?

A combo of Henderson and Dier is poor IMO.

Dier is a decent DM, but if he is going to anchor the midfield, whoever plays alongside him needs to offer more than Henderson.

They should never play together unless we are looking to be very defensive (although it didnt work well last night defensively).

Henderson is a decent passer but if playing next to Dier he needs to offer more creativity and have the ability to go past players to create space for others. He can't. Between them they are not going to scare too many opposition, and it is easy for the opposition to stand off them and mark the attacking players.

Much of our problems i think have stemmed from this position. Firstly Rooney and now Henderson. The better teams have someone in this position who is capable of opening up teams and creating space for others. The opposition can stand off Rooney and Hendo, mark the forward players well and know that they are not going to get hurt.

Wilshire can do this. May be Lallana too, and possibly Drinkwater is a better option (on last seasons form).

Our poor defence also influences the selection. we need a DM to protect the less than solid CBs and Dier is probably the best option as he has the ability to naturally drop back into defence.

The ball comes too predictably and too slow from midfield, into a crowded final third. Until this is solved we will not get the best out of our forward line and Alli.

They were all poor at the Euro's to be honest. I just disagree with your claim that Wilshere has been better. He shouldn't have gone the Euro's for a start after playing something like 90 mins in 18 months.

He's had more MOTM performances. Had a spell where he was our best player a few years ago, and then at the end of the last qualifying campaign. Not seen that from Hendo yet.
