As good as players as Eze, Bowen, Toney, Watkins are, they are not top 4 level players.
They are also not used to playing against teams that park 11 players behind the bus like all 3 teams in the group stages will.
They also not used to playing important must win games against the best players in the world.
Not taking Grealish is one of the most idiotic decisions that dumb cunt has ever made. Regardless of patchy form he's head and shoulders above those picked ahead of him. The level above that he is was obviously as soon as he came on in the Bosnia match.
He also is used to playing with Foden (and Palmer!) which would also help make the most out of the best player in the world as it was obvious the other night the other players are not on Fodens wavelength. The number of times he was available for his trademark half turn, but rice didn't have to bottle to give him the ball when surrounded by players as he's used to playing with shite.
There's always one of the big teams that have a total mare in tournaments, think it's out turn again because the manager is terrible and has picked an awful and imbalanced squad
