@@ItsAv3rageGamer I dislike Toney intensely as a person, and I think he's disrespected Brentford to an astonishing level.

I think you need variety in your squad at international level. That's why I used to advocate for Crouch and Heskey over the years over players line Defoe etc. Because they gave you something that nobody else could. I think it's wise to have a straight 9 but it's also useful to have someone who can bring others into the game as well as offering a good goal threat. But as with the likes of Grealish, gareth will find a way of playing a player outside of their role and skillset.

Nothing to do with your local bias Troy? Watkins is the best performing english striker in europe. Southgate failed to get any service for watkins in these twp games. Watkins did keep the ball in late on against Belgium which led to the equiliser.

🤫 who came from Watkins’s story😂

Troy Deeney's great,

Deeney was a centre back trying to be a striker

He came in as a striker at villa

At 3:25 feeney and Jordan are trying to criticize Mainoo for giving the ball away on a play he was attempting to break lines, something English players are notoriously poor at and the England team has been missing and crying out for, for some time

Maybe we should just have Henderson, Gallagher and rice playing in that midfield then, they can pass it side to side and never give it away. The whole point of mainoo was to split the lines with the pass, plus that one they mention was genuinely the only time he did give it away (and won it back). Numerous times yesterday mainoo worked the angles to drill a pass in to foden just on the edge of the box. Isnt this exactly what we want.

Southgate will make a major mistake in not picking him for the euros.

They have almost identical career statistics except most of Toney's are league one and include penalties. Watkins has the most goals and assists in the prem.
