It'd be interesting to look back and see what people on here said about Southgate when he was appointed.
He was never going to take Sterling off. England’s best players for about 3 years. And our biggest threat tonight.
As Ashley Cole said after the game Phillips is possibly our most important player he’s what links it altogether. No way on earth will he be dropped on Sunday he has been immense throughout the tournament. I think the only change on Sunday will be foden for saka
Can’t really fault Southgates decisions, but taking Grealish off and going to a back 5, made for a very nervous last 15 mins, we were well on top and then conceded ground to them, we could have gone for the jugular and killed it off

Yes Phillips was a bit lost 1st half tonight imo. Didn’t defend well at all. 2nd half when we controlled the game better he looked much more comfortable. I think it is possible he will start Henderson in the Final. Possible not probable i would say. Think Henderson could possibly start instead of Rice. We will see. I trust GS whatever he does he knows more than me what to do.
