Think it might be a tough one personally, hoping for 2-1 win

The Dutch are certainly a much tougher prospect these days.

Holland look a good team all of a sudden - and they seem to have lots of decent players coming through their youth teams.
Not having a sharp Kane will probably hurt us, but if the rumours are true and we go in with a front 3 of Rashford, Sterling and Sancho, that will be pretty interesting.
Hopefully we can just nick it
Predicted midfield 3 of Rice, Barkley and Lingard looks pretty flaky though, if Henderson isn't playing.

Quite enjoy watching this England team.
Good test this is. Very interesting to see how we do.

Henderson will prove to be a bigger loss than Harry Kane imo (if he doesn't play)

Hoping he doesn’t start Kane.
Makes little sense with how fit he is and the Dutch’s main strength being the 2 centre backs and the DM.
Sterling as a false 9 will cause them issues. They’ve struggled with it in the past.

I think Germany did it and scored a few. Should create space for the other two as well. Kane on for penos if it comes to that. He looked fucked in the Champions League final. No need to harm him in some half arsed cup.

Playing Rashford there gives them a direct opponent who they will more than likely dominate.

I think De Ligt and Van Dijk would be happy to play against an unfit Harry Kane, but won't like a fluid front three of Sterling, Rashford and Sancho. I'm worried about midfield though, don't understand why we haven't taken Winks who dominated the midfield in the champions league final, he looked well on his way to full fitness. Also, why are we so bothered about resting champs league finalists when the dutch will play all of theirs?

Also, why are we so bothered about resting champs league finalists when the dutch will play all of theirs? Yeah. It's a shame Loftus-Cheek got injured. He was looking very good towards the end of the season. Hopefully Foden could be in for the Euros - and he doesn't feel able to accommodate Maddison who he sees, it seems, as just a No. 10. Not sure Dier or Alli are much of a loss with the form they are in, but Henderson certainly is. Choosing 3 from 4 (Rice, Barkley, Delph, Lingard) is pretty tough.

Come next season I full expect Alexander-Arnold to have overtaken Kyle Walker. I suppose judging by the circumstances I can see why he's sticking with Walker, for this week anyway.

I think Alexander-Arnold and Gomez should both be walking into that back 4 instead of Walker and Stones. Henderson and Winks shouldn't be getting rested either, they should be in that midfield.
This is a chance to win a trophy so it is disappointing we are allowing clubs to dictate and resting the champions league players

Makes sense but that back 4 looks poor none fill me with much confidence. Gomez should be in there for one of the CBs. He’s much better than the pair of them.

As good as they are at the back, we aren’t.
And as good as we are up front, they aren’t.
Should make it interesting.

If they start Babel up front I'd be tempted to not bother with centre backs and throw more bodies in midfield.

They need to get at Dumfries
They have to out-pass the Dutchies pon the left hand side to have a chance
