Rice looks like a more mobile version of Maguire. I understand he used to be a centre back when he was younger and that's where he should play for England. He's no Pirlo and the less said about Phillips on current form/condition the better.What was Rice doing there FFS ?
Rotating Foden in for Saka for a friendly is fine. Still refusing to even try a more progressive midfield isn’t. He’s such a coward - I think he won’t pick Rice/Bellingham/Maddison in case it works and then he’s under pressure to do it when it mattersReally not sure how Maddison isn’t in over Philips here. Similar to be said for Saka over Foden
It should be one defensive midfielder plus Bellingham and Foden or Maddison. Foden should be able to be coached to play there but Southgate can't really coach. Bit pointless Foden just covering for Saka. Sterling's still more useful than Rashford and is TTA really injured. It's all too slow and with out enough craft and flair. Not a surprise given the current coaching set up.Rotating Foden in for Saka for a friendly is fine. Still refusing to even try a more progressive midfield isn’t.

I have only just switched on but I just don't get the premise of having him in the team just makes a mockery of players actually playing in the Premier league.It looks like Kalvin Phillips combined premier league minutes last season was 290 - less than 5 game’s worth. He sat on the bench for nearly 2000 minutes. This season he’s played 6 minutes in the league.
It’s like Southgate is trolling us.
