Chalobah highly rated by Southgate (and others) haven’t seen enough of him to know if he’s a pure holder or more though.

I do not see anything in Loftus Cheek that others obviously do

No work rate some nice easy passes lacks a killer one not for me.

Be interesting to see if he plays much under the new boss who does like to use younger players

Do you think Sarri should be giving RLC and Mount a full season in behind Higuain (assuming the Morata swap happens), especially if Hazard goes to La Liga?

Doubt they get a full season, it is hard to equate what he did at Napoli (smallish squad) with what he will do at Chelsea

We have one at Leicester, Hamza Choudhury, just broke into first team end of last season and England U21s

early days, whether he develops into anything (and importantly gets sufficient game time to develop) we will see, but capable of holding, box to box and passing range

Hoddle disagrees and thought he was our brightest spark.

Thought his work rate was fine, and almost created our best chance if Rashford hadnt have been at the beach.......

I really hope he comes back the same from injury.  He was fantastic for 6 games at start of last season.  He played in a 2 with Doucoure mind.

Rich - do you think Drinkwater could play the Henderson role in Southgate’s current formation or does he need to play in a two?

In a two. Not quite got the range to play the sole holding midfielder.

the old Leicester joke of course, we play three in midfield, Drinkwater and Kante either side. Funny, but had a ring of truth to it

I am not sure English football has the ideal single holding midfielder yet, or someone with the range of passing to connect back to front.

Henderson has to keep it simple (or else), Dier really a converted CB, Drinkwater no.

who might develop into a role to provide "range" is a key question

Shelvey.

Shelvey.

wrong un. team mates at Charlton hated him, Southgate wouldn't pick him as a squad player as worried about squad unity, it is said

too late for Wilshere, sold by Emery for "tactical and technical" reasons. says it all

has to be a younger generation, hopefully in tome for euro2020

Was also told by a good source that Wilshere left out partly due to being disliked within the squad.

A full back at centre back and now a full back in centre midfield?  Not sure this is the natural road to triumph.

Got high hopes for Phil Foden at Citeh, looks dynamic & creative. Like that Harry Winks at Spurs as well. Don't know what Eric Dier brings to the party, seems to just amble around.

Too many of England’s best players are full backs, so Southgate just puts them everywhere lol
