Iheanacho got on the scoresheet for Nigeria so hopefully getting fitter and I believe Wilf and Musa also played. No Mahrez for Algeria, Schmeichel kept a clean sheet for Denmark and of course Vardy was kept on the bench by Harry 'I still haven't realised I am allowed to score in August' Kane Trying to think who else, Chilwell for the U21's, not heard about Slimani or Shinji. Of Maguire didn't even make the beach for England, not sure if it's due to having a knock from the Sheff Utd game
Slimani played 90 minutes for Algeria, lost 3-1, didn't score and Shinji came off the bench for Japan.
Maguire left out of England squad - would have thought that Southgate might picked a different team from the one that bored everyone vs Malta but nope.
Suprised but I suppose Cahill is solid and he has chosen Stones a better partner which you can't moan at really.
Did a similar thing to last weekend though, too eagar to go for the challenge too early, leaving a massive gap in behind him, got an earful from Stones about it. Otherwise an ok game, love seeing him stride forward and play in people behind their back 4. Thought he'd not even bother trying that for England.
Maguire did look very competent apart from that first minute rush of blood. Too keen to make an impression. Vardy showed great pace when put in behind the defence, but his hold up play and movement in the box were pretty awful. Might have been more effective with a stronger strike partner.
