No England support? They're a legit dark horse this year. No one can deny they have the talent.

this... I wanted to see them make the world cup last team... I know Euro expanded to 24 teams but I have to look and see if they would have made it with 16...

I'm interested yet concerned about England. On the one hand, woy's preference is usually a really compact 442, which emphasises full back play. England's full backs are both young and athletic, although for my money neither of them have the ability of Glen Johnson on the ball or even close to Gary Neville off of it.

But doing that creates a problem, you either need to drop Vardy or Kane, or push Rooney back into the midfield, which then means finding spots for Alli and probably dropping Sterling - and choosing two out of Barkley, Henderson and Wilshire. Obvious choice there is to drop Wilshire, but Roy loves him.

Also, shame that Walcott is out of the squad, really don't see Rashford contributing more than Walcott at this point. I know he hasn't been lighting it up, but he's always performed for England.

I've been watching the friendlies with keen interest, and what I see is that the whole side is kind of being fitted around Rooney, who may be the most talented and experienced player in the side, but is going to make a the formation into a bit of a cluster.

Rooting for: England, heritage, one of the of the Greatest nations in the history of the World. Pretty much every country England has been to is better off for it

Rooting against: Turkey, They are genocide deniers
