Southgate and Caldwell are young managers and is this new fluid formation based on 3 at the back the new football de jour? Will it work or is it a passing fad?

However they were up against half a German side in testimonial mode.
I guess it shows how far England have fallen that former rivals now see them/us as bit part performers in a player's send-off.

Fail to do that, we will be rock bottom.
Recruitment of the correct personal is paramount

And, of course, England lost.

maybe something like this
lee
hird evatt ?
mcginn jones
dimao nolan
?
dennis ?
so another centre half needed maybe two. attacking midfielder to play behind the front two and a big mobile striker would be nice to play with dennis . not sure about dimao and nolan but put them in for now!

It works if you have the right players. But then Caldwell did say formations and tactics don't matter, so probably not.

There has been fleeting glimpses, against peterboro especially, he has won the league, he's no mug, let's see what he can do with his own players and his own backroom team, instead of just having a pop all the time... relegation has neen on the cards all season regardless of what carson kept spouting.

We'll have to wait and see then, it's not great atm i agree, but its a very poor squad, he needs to hit the ground running next season but if he doesn't can we afford to get rid?? I very much doubt it.

We won't be able to afford the kind of players to play his kind of football and we won't be able to afford to let him go, so I have very little hope.

What's the significance of Zoltan Kovago pic?

As much as I personally don't like a few of the players it has to be said that Kyle walker and Danny rose have been excellent as wing backs for a couple of seasons and that's key to the system.
Had Kane been upfront the other night I suspect England would've scored more than once.
I know Germany were also missing players but I don't think England are that far behind them, obviously I wouldn't want to see smalling anywhere near the starting 11 though!!

I don't want to detract from the performance of England players after a good effort, but it has to be recognised that every German fan and player in that stadium was more interested in saying goodbye to Podolski than in the match. I don't think you can draw conclusions until England play against a team that is going all - out to win the game.
