Just answer the last question, Do you think that Southgate, Martinez and Deschamps would have taken advise from all their fitness coaches regarding the advantage of missing the last group game ? but obviously you know better than all of then. Perhaps it's a co-incidence that all 3 teams won !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Edited July 4, 2018 by alfieconn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. L/C looked good as a sub against Tunisia but didn't do enough against Belgium when he started. Lingard has been good in parts but Sterling and Dele have been quite poor. I think one or both may be dropped against Sweden. It's such a shame 'The Ox' got injured. He'd be great in this team. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Importance. #COLENG #ENG #WorldCup Yeah,, tbh 2 henderson would b my choise for capt .. i wasnt a fan but he's overcome EVERY hurdle rodgers wantin rid and he's stood up and improved at every junction .. even with kloppy didnt think he would fancy him but liverpool IMO are better with him and always think a c middie is isa better position 4 a capt .. but hey...were in the quarter finals <deleted> do i know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He covered a great deal of ground as he always does, and he got into their penalty area a few time late in the game, so IMO full marks to him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is Henderson is not a penalty taker, he just had the bottle to step up and do what was asked. At least he's playing the real captain's role well, forgot Kane was on the park in the last 25 mins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah not sayin he played badly but the one time he got a one on one break.. late on he just couldnt pull away if that was earlier imo think he would probably have done shame .. but the game seemed to physically take its toll on him.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I don't care who's captain. It's not cricket after all. As for the penalty shootout.... yeah, kudos to anyone who steps up. Where was Vardy?

So Wils can have a pop at Kane but i am not allowed to have a pop at Henderson, typical bindippers can give it but can't take it !!!

You are absolutely spot on... resting players in the BEL game was a no brainer. Not just because of the easier side of the draw as back up, but also in order to rest players and promote harmony in the squad (giving as many people as possible a run out).
