The biggest mistake we could make is agree to take some of Chelsea’s dross players in a part exchange Olise deal. Trevoh Chalobah and Noni Madueke are woeful and my Chelsea mates are eager to see the back of them. Not to us my friends. Agreed.

If we lose Guehi Eze and Olise, that will not be good at all.

Its the arrogance of these so called bigger clubs that annoys me. They leak a story that they'd be prepared to offer one or two of their 'stars' in exchange for Olise and act like they're doing us a favour! What they are actually attempting is to sign one of the best players in the Prem right now on the cheap while getting rid of rubbish they dont want. I imagine they think we're such idiots and they are so clever.....IF they were to pull it off. Yes agree with that , lets face it if they were any good they would keep em . Then to add insult to it they stick on a 25 percent sell on clause on the contract just in case Glasner turns them into worldies , they can f*** off with themselves and keep their over rated blue bottle jobs .

I watched France last night. I can see why they didn't select Olise. He would have spent the whole event bench warming. They seem to play with strength and speed. Im not sure Olise's sublime skills are what France is all about. I can't see them putting him on the pitch ahead of Dembele. Sadly for England, the same bench warming is probably the case for Eze and Wharton. Given the top 6 bias, the emphasis is on why oh why no Grealish. Of course, the true emphasis should be that Wharton is obviously the pairing answer for Rice and not Trent. And, given they play together and that Eze could dribble his way through concrete, why don't they play him instead of Foden? If they do stick with him, I hope Foden will improve and not do a Rooney and excel all season just to come off the boil for our summer tournaments.

That said……perhaps the less they play is better for us so they are rested for Brentford.

But I genuinely think he is the missing cog.

I see the defensive conundrum and utilising players in their best positions easily resolved by setting up like this: Pickford This keeps Trippier and Foden out the side which is for the best, provides width and hopefully there would be some decent link up play between Palmer, Bellingham and Kane. Thoughts? Sorry, this hasn’t come out as I intended. TAA and Gordon play as wingbacks with a back 3 if that’s not clear. Edited by Eaglecoops (18 Jun 2024 7.57pm)

Wharton would completely change things for the better. His speed of vision and the way does the simple things is missing from the England team from the other night. Roy Keane pointed out that TAA made one or two decent passes. The rest of the game he gave the ball away or looked lost. Put Wharton in FFS
