Dave Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 All the talk is (thank god) that Southgate will be playing one holding midfielder against Tunisia and Panama. So which one would you start? Dier or Henderson? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Artful Dodger Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Neither is particularly brilliant but off recent performances I'd go Henderson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Hendo i think is a little more multi faceted which is probably a good thing. So long as he knows his role he should be the right option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted June 9, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted June 9, 2018 Henderson on current form. For all the stick he gets he can pick a pass sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber Dan+ Posted June 10, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted June 10, 2018 Henderson for me. Very glad he's going with one or the other. It justifies him leaving some of the others out too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Holding midfielder? Dier. He has better positing than Henderson and can hold shape better. Henderson is an aggressive tackler, not a player you want at 'holding midfield'. Think of it this way, in terms of style you have the 'Jon Obi Mikel or Matic' DM that plays deep and retains possession, and needs the midfield to press the ball carrier towards the DM. They are almost like the tip of the funnel. Then there are players like 'Kante and Vidal' that win the ball back at any costs and have constant pressing and aggression. In a perfect world Dier would be deepest, Hendo and a creative CM would be the other two players in a midfield three. But creative CMs don't exist in England.

Did you miss Dier's passing at the Euros? Dier is easily as good as or better a passer than Henderson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
