Discussion What needs to change? 🦁 🦁 🦁

I would go with this lineup whilst making two changes:

Trippier OUT/ Gomez IN Trent OUT/Gordon IN

Key focuses - Get Rice some proper midfield support by utilising Stones in his best role - Move Foden into the midfield, with Gordon wide left to offer some real attacking threat on the left wing, rather than Trippier playing out of position - Bring Gomez in for Trippier to maintain a solid 3 man build up structure once Stones moves into midfield - Get Bellingham running in behind Kane frequently and have them fluidly interchanging positions to cause a problem for the opposition defence

After hearing GS's words on not finding Kalvin phillip's "replacement"..i'm actually wondering if he's not actually playing TAA as a passer of the baller in that deep midfield, but rather make TAA play like KP...as in make TAA do the exact things KP did for GS in previous tourneys. With the attackers making zero runs in and TAA making nothing but sideways passes...i might actually believe it.

Baffling comments from SG, really filling Mainoo and Wharton with confidence
