Our B-team definitely seems to be shite - which is really great considering the increased number of games we have now

My tickets arrived this morning for lionesses game against Ukraine at the new everton stadium. Looking forward to seeing it. I think this maybe first England international in liverpool for first time in 26 years for any mans or womens team.

What are people expecting from Tuchel and the friendlies coming up? Too late to experiment, so will be interesting to see what the staring line ups are.

It’s the first tournament in a long time where I think it’s pretty obvious what the starting line up will be come MD1 vs Croatia.
 

Think he’s purposefully left Palmer, Trent, Foden and Maguire out to eliminate the noise because you could make a case for them starting whereas Madueke, Burn/Quansah, Eze and Spence definitely won’t. 
 

Has to be for me 

 

Pickford 

 

James 

Konsa 

Guehi 

O’Reilly 

 

Anderson 

Rice 

 

Saka 

Bellingham 

Rashford 

 

Kane 

 

Would expect both the friendlies to revolve around protecting those 11 players and getting the others who may need it up to speed (say like Gordon who hasn’t played in a month, really, or Toney in a lower intensity competition in Saudi)
