This year he's basically almost as impressive as Verratti. Then again it's Ligue 1. But he's real proper good and he will be in the starting XI at EC, I can guarantee.
I would say Deschamps will call all the players that we have named, but none of them will be in the starting XI. Deschamps is a pussy and he'll stick with players that he knows well.



he could yep, but he won't and that's for sure


Hate when it happens. Why not push in young blood, full of desire to achieve stuff. Its true that more mature players tend to stick more rigurously to the tactical plan, but if you overdo that you risk playing utterly boring football. (remember 2008's campaign ?)

Roy hodgeoston tho

Regardless of the class of his players, almost guaranteed fuckup.

Will probably get 4 points out of germoney (1) and netherlands (3) games then get completely embarassed at ec :lol:

The biggest win probably is that Rooney wont play. Doubt vardy will get 1st team football over kane tho as they share the same position.

Till then, go Lechester ^^^

Apparently rooney will be fit and ready for the euros :mellow:

And Vardy might get to play left wing perhaps if welbeck and Stirling aren't performing. Or hopefully Kane gets his leg broke by a southerner at the weekend. :thumbsup:

Doubt it, speed isnt one of his best traits.

Probably subbed in in the 70" if things go well, if bad and both kane and vardy get to play theyll be stepping on each other shoes i figure.

Left wing isn't where I'd play him if it was my choice, just that the 2 games he's played for England have been on the left wing. And I'd never sub him on if we were behind either. Won't break down a defending team and sure as balls won't score many headers. Counter attacking player through and through. That's why Leicester have been struggling last few games when we've had more of the ball. :lol:

True, i think the success story at Lechester has been mostly because the other (big?) teams considered them outsiders and tried to play their usual game and not adapting to opposition tactics.



I remember Ranieri starting with a completely different lineup, gz to him for tinkering the team in such a way that they not only avoided relegation but are title contenders.

Beginning of the season he started last seasons players while the new lot fit in. Changed de laet for Simpson, King for Kanté, schlupp at lb for Fuchs.

Counter attacking works for us this season but you're right as soon as teams get wise we'll have to switch and that's when the problems start, interested to see who we sign in the summer to maybe try a different approach for next year. :d

Welbeck is performing tho, think he will start over Vardy simply because he's great for England
