England vs Eqypt - **Spoilers**

Why take off Defoe, why not actually try Defoe and Rooney together as a front two and see if they can play that way. It feels like he's set on big man/little man, so played it as a 4-5-1 so Defoe had no chance just to prove he was right, and/or stick Gerrard in the side.

Why change the entire system, try a new player or two in the same system we've been playing and see how they play, otherwise you learn smeg all. Theres a very select few teams who can play a 4-5-1/4-3-3, all of the successful ones have solid defences and insane pace on the wings, we have neither. Chelsea don't have that anymore and looked poor in a 4-3-3 without it and with the same players look hugely stronger in a 4-4-2 again. THeres a reason teams always end up back at 4-4-2 after playing around with a stupid formation for a few years, because everything but 4-4-2 sucks.
