Ramsdale
Walker, Stones, Guehi, Trippier
Mainoo, Rice, Foden
Palmer, Kane, Gordon

[dougcollins]

Is JBG in the squad?

[dannyonclarets]

Very strong attacking side and it doesn't even have Bellingham or Saka in!

[Newcastleclaret93]

Great team

[ijkay]

Is JBG in the squad?

captain i think

[ElectroClaret]

Yes, looks a very good team that.

[ElectroClaret]

Jesus, Rooney's put some timber on...

[Newcastleclaret93]

I don’t think that’s far off our starting eleven in 9 days

[RVclaret]

I don’t think that’s far off our starting eleven in 9 days

Pickford, Bellingham and Saka come in. Hopefully Mainoo has a good game and stays.

[Newcastleclaret93]

Pickford, Bellingham and Saka come in. Hopefully Mainoo has a good game and stays.

Yes think that’s about the only changes

[jrgbfc]

Think thats likely to be our starting back 4, obviously Pickford will come back in as well.

[gtclaret]

Very good team.The big question is will Southgate let them play,or will the wingers be stuck out wide out of harms way,just getting in the way of the attacking full backs.Kane playing deep so there's no threat,and Pass Pass pass allowing the opposition to organise. He has done this before,

[IanMcL]

Is that oir Johann as Iceland captain?

Hattrick would be good. Come on JBG

[Burnley Ace]

JBG Captain from central midfield

[spt_claret]

Johann captaining and playing CM. Should have played there far more for us this season rather than square pegging Odobert there.

[ClaretTony]

JBG captain and Joey Gudjonsson’s son on the bench.

[Holtyclaret]

Eidur Gudmunssons’ son starting (suddenly feel a lot older)

[Buxtonclaret]

Great shot!

[wilks_bfc]

Iceland 1 up

Ramsdale showing his lack of game time

[Ptangyangkipperbang]

Just switched on good goal

[spt_claret]

Eidur Gudmunssons’ son starting (suddenly feel a lot older)

3rd generation he is. Eidur made his Iceland debut getting subbed on for his dad, I believe. Football runs in families there.
1-0 Iceland. Shame they didn't make the Euros this time, they must be the best nation per capita in football.

[Stayingup]

Great team

I'll have whatever your on!!!

[Vegas Claret]

poor goal to concede

[Buxtonclaret]

Superb play by Kane.
Can't help but wonder if VK will give him a run out at LB

[spt_claret]

Iceland nearly conceded from fannying at the back. The obsession with Guardiolissimo needs to end.

[Rileybobs]

England playing some good stuff, looking sharp. Southgate’s got a big dilemma how to fit both Bellingham and Foden into his lineup. We look v dangerous when Kane drops in and has runners off him from either side and on that basis Gordon has a real chance of starting.

[Carlos the Great]

There is more people living in Leicester than Iceland ..

[Bin Ont Turf]

Think thats likely to be our starting back 4, obviously Pickford will come back in as well.

And that's where the worry lies.

[Bin Ont Turf]

There is more people living in Leicester than Iceland ..

Far more pleasant and less radicalised in Iceland though.

[ISpeds00]

SO slow
Painful to watch as always

[Pearcey]

SO slow
Painful to watch as always

Don’t watch then.

[Rileybobs]

SO slow
Painful to watch as always

Not sure what you’re watching. England are zipping the ball around with 1 or 2 touches.

[RVclaret]

Both our full backs limiting us quite a bit here. Walker’s delivery woeful as ever and Trippier doesn’t have a left foot.

[Bin Ont Turf]

It's not slow but it's as f***ing boring as usual.

[Winstonswhite]

ALL FUR COAT NO KNICKERS

[TheFamilyCat]

The atmosphere's electric.

[gsyclaret]

need to get eze on to run at them, too ponderous around the box

[beddie]

I’ve not bothered to put it on, really not interested.

[ISpeds00]

Not sure what you’re watching. England are zipping the ball around with 1 or 2 touches.

watched the first 25
awful

[ElectroClaret]

Watching in Kos.
Greece beating Germany. The locals are practically dancing in the sea.

England poor.

[gandhisflipflop]

Harry Kane disrupts the balance of the team. I wouldn’t start him. No need to be coming so deep all the time when you have that ability to finish.

germans had 2 dissed

[Rileybobs]

Ran out of ideas after a lively opening. Gordon has been too isolated on the left and we’ve been guilty of rushing the final ball.

[bumba]

Crying out for Grealish

Mainoo, Foden and Trippier been awful he offers nothing as a left back.
Kane still playing as a third centre half instead of giving us an outlet up top.
And this squad is the best in the world apparently

[Rileybobs]

You wouldn’t start Harry Kane?

[gandhisflipflop]

You wouldn’t start Harry Kane?

No I wouldn’t.

[Sproggy]

The atmosphere's electric.

Aye, this 1-2 touch football zipping the ball about has got Wembley bouncing.

[jrgbfc]

If Shaw is out we're going to be really unbalanced. Even if Foden plays on the left he'll be constantly wandering infield.

[RVclaret]

Imagine not starting the best striker in world football. Blows my mind people think like this.

[Newcastleclaret93]

I agree Foden has been abysmal.

Theres been some positives.

I think Geuhi has played well. Gordon has got himself in some good positions (although his final ball has been lacking).

Saka and Eze to come on and run at them. I would even suggest bringing Wharton on for Mainoi
