Yes but Italy and Portugal do and have both reached a number of major finals

in the last couple of decades without necessarily having the better players.

Not saying it's definitely the right approach but it's safe to say that everything else has basically failed.

If I had my tenure as England manager, I'd go with something like this (Other Football) - jamesward, May 5, 09:36:39
- Foden/mount/Grealish (Other Football) - Cardiff Canary, May 5, 11:29:57
  - Very similar to Cantwell/Dowell/Buendia (Other Football) - jamesward, May 5, 11:41:50
    - Training together every day is key (Other Football) - Cardiff Canary, May 5, 12:19:28
      - Don't think Mount is showboaty. Quite the opposite (n/m) (Other Football) - jamesward, May 5, 12:30:16
        
        Ahhh okay (Other Football) - Cardiff Canary, May 5, 13:26:12
        
        Foden isn't effective enough for you? (Other Football) - Tricky Hawes, May 5, 15:23:08
        
        I don't really care about the England side (Other Football) - Cardiff Canary, May 5, 19:51:40
        
        Both could start in the Champions League final (Other Football) - jamesward, May 5, 13:42:37
        
        They're good enough in their regular teams (Other Football) - Cardiff Canary, May 5, 15:22:32
        
        I'd say Foden should be the one nailed on starter for any England team (Other Football) - Tricky Hawes, May 5, 15:25:22
        
        Agree, those two have been outstanding this season for top top teams (n/m) (Other Football) - jamesward, May 5, 15:49:02
- I think Walker and Shaw are likely to be the full backs (Other Football) - norwaay, May 5, 11:29:53
  - I'd totally forgotten Shaw (Other Football) - jamesward, May 5, 11:35:48
    - Yes but Italy and Portugal do and have both reached a number of major finals (Other Football) - norwaay, May 5, 11:46:17

  - Mbappe top goal scorer at 10/1 looks nice (n/m) (Other Football) - Duck, May 5, 10:39:47
    - Pukki 100/1 (Other Football) - jamesward, May 5, 10:43:28
  - Probably because of home advantage (Other Football) - jamesward, May 5, 09:43:10
    - Definitely (Other Football) - SCC 28, May 5, 09:46:36
