[QUOTE="Bada-Bing!, post: 1112102, member: 70552"] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/63876823[/URL] Good article. That’s my concern with England when they start meeting top tier opposition- the midfield battle and gaining control. Side -side passing between Stones and Maguire at the back will not cut it. Kane trying to be both number 10 and number 9 and reliance on Bellingham to get forward. France have a proper number 6 in Tchouameni aided by Rabiot and Griezmann to control and playmake in midfield. That’s not even getting to Mbappé. All talk of Walker taking care of Mbappé, but he’s 2 months post groin op with one full 90 mins under his belt. Just wonder if that will take half a yard of his top speed. Or Deschamps just switches Dembélé with Mbappé and has him run at Shaw and Maguire.😱 Not that Dembélé is a slouch. [/QUOTE]
