    He just got a lot a positive coverage from the Press because he indulged them and gave them special access to the players. The fans had turned against Southgate's set-piece football (the blueprint for Arteta) for a long time before the press did.

    There was also the unprecedented rate of qualification for finals and semi finals.

    The two tournaments before him, we went out in the groups and in the first knockout round (to Iceland). Under him we did semi, final, quarter, final. If we revert to the norm now, Southgate will look even better.

    Also Graham Taylor was famously open with the press (his dad was a journalist) and they treated him like utter shit.

    Versatility. Dan Burn can play full back as well I'm told.

    Think most people would say if we end up with Dan Burn at full back we are fucked.

    Recently had a conversation with a NuqeHassle fan, he was saying, that much as he loved Dan Burn and his 'journey', playing Burn at left back was a sign that Eddie Howe had lost his way.

    Left back who should be in the squad, and arguably start, Lewis Hall.

    Well he’s ‘appeared’ in that position.

    And if it’s about versatility Alexander-Arnold is a shoe-in isn’t he?
    I’m no AA fan boy by the way. I don’t really care that much. Just find it odd.

    non-playing (Spence) full backs

    Spence has been playing fairly regularly no?

    So who is going?

    I've got Anderson, Sangare, Wood, Bindon. Must be someone I've missed.

    I'm done with the World Cup which is good. Really hope England crash out as early as possible?.

    My main issue here as Jim has already said is that it's a clear message that if he wants to play for England, Morgan needs to play for a so-called big Club. So the chances of keeping him now are somewhere close to zero I would say

    And as I pointed out, Anderson is in the squad and he plays for Forest. So im not at all convinced by that argument.

    He’s just picked people he likes, he’s already banging on about squad chemistry etc. he’s a cunt.

    Yeah, I've got a feeling that he thinks Morgan is too vocal in the changing room etc.

    He must really hate Alexander-Arnold given that he’s picked quite a few unfit (James / Livremento) and non-playing (Spence) full backs in front of him.

    I'd take Morato instead of Dan Burn, if he was English obviously.

    And he has a broken jaw currently, courtesy of Delap's elbow.
