Konsa and Stones ahead of Guehi is a strange choice.

We've got enough to beat almost all of the teams in the competition. Apart from the actual good ones.
At least 5 I wouldn't have in the starting eleven. But then I wouldn't play the way he will.
-
Wasn't Guehi struggling with a knock after the last friendly?
Perhaps I imagined that.
Anyway - a good result against Portugal for Downroadable Content. -
Wonder whether Martinez is strong enough to drop Ronaldo. Probably not.
-
I find some of Tuchel's choices hard to agree with, but he's essentially trying to build a team around the current best centre forward in the world, who is is on ridiculously good form. That's worth a try and picking the 11 most talented players has not really served us well in the past.
-
We can argue about the dead legs, but there is no doubt he has balls of steel.
-
James absolutely miles off it, in all aspects. Again.
-
When he gets his match fitness…he’ll get injured again,
-
Anderson looking good.
-
Can’t imagine Croatia will let this Madueke v Perisic situation continue into the second half.
-
Madueke is getting through a lot but doesn't do anything with it when he does.
-
3rd goal will be a long throw.
-
Apart from pop in a couple of cracking crosses at least one of which should have been finished.
-
I was just starting to think 'scoring a Kane penalty from the only effort on target, conceding from their only effort on target having given the ball away in our own half and getting done on transition - Tuchel / Bayern flashbacks' when that happened.
I don't remember Bayern being any good at set pieces under TT. Probably because Kimmich always takes them. And isn't that good at them. -
Also forced the corner that led to the goal.
-
He's fast in a straight line but slows everything down when he needs to stop and do something with it.
Meanwhile, the strategy of setting your side up to suit the best cf in world football is not going too bad so far.
