We're playing wing backs, Trippier for Saka according to the usual sources who've got the early team news most of the tournament.

I can see the logic. More conservative option but it matches up pretty well and gets a top class free kick taker onto the pitch.

Enormous amount of firepower on the bench when we need it.

Don't think there in the Euros, don't remember one in 96 anyway.

Foden sounds like he's out of the 23 with his knock.

Wing backs it is, no Saka in the starting XI. Suspect Mount will sit on Jorginho and Kane will play deeper to try and replicate the success Olmo had against Bonucci and Chiellini. Walker and Maguire to match up with Chiesa and Insigne.

Let's hope it works.
