Does anyone else keep playing scenarios in their head of what they want to happen?

Nah, it’s not going to make that much difference to me either way. I like watching football but I enjoy it for the game, not the result. Would rather lose in an entertaining match than win a **** one.

I just get this feeling it is going to be a massive anti climax. Southgate knows how to make football really boring.

Yup. Here's hoping for a game that proves to be an advert for the best of European football. Not players being shot all over the pitch, and 120 mins of sideways and backwards passes.

Watching SSN and they keep going on about the team, id be amazed if he doesn't start with the same side and formation that we played against Denmark.

Team is set and steady now, go with the same.

I'd bet 5 at the back like vs Germany :/

Boring and a win will do just nicely.

Kane said this was the biggest match of his career.

Big than Champions League final?

 

[opethdisciple]

The anticipation of this game is starting to build up.

I am getting jittery.

Big than Champions League final?

I'd say so, yes.

 

[Maundie]

I would say so yes, you can pick your club (to a certain degree) and change to a better one but cannot change your country.

Depending on who you play for could be challenging for the Champs league every year but the Euros/World Cup championships only come round every 2 years and you have to qualify as well

 

[Robbo]

Kane said this was the biggest match of his career.

Big than Champions League final?

Absolutely.

Of course this is bigger than the CL final lol

 

[omnomnom]

Tripper recalled. Back 5?

 

[RavenXXX2]

heart says England win, head says 0-2 italy.

 

[McBain]

Going back 5 would be a huge call, Italy will likely be a back 4. Back 5 likely means no Mount as well :/

We went a back 5 vs Germany to match them up. But hey, I've given up questioning Southgate so ill go with what he thinks can do the job. Does make me nervous though.

 

[adam cool dude]

The thing with a back 5 is you cannot lose and if come half time you can change it back to a back 4. Boring yes but bases are covered.

Back 5 with Mount playing on the right, think Foden has a minor injury, not sure about Saka not starting though.

 

[Nasher]

I knew we could count on support from the home nations

They must have spent a fortune on football shirts this year

 

[Shamikebab]

People think this is bigger than a CL final? No chance. World Cup I could see but not Euros.
