Not so sure they are poor in depth, there are about 20 Belgian players who would make England's first 11, which is also a bit of a sad indictment of our policy of not bringing our top youngsters through from promising starts to their careers.

I dont think thats true at all

Courtois
Hazard
Alderweirald
Kompany
Mertens
Dembele
Lukaku (although not in current system, would not drop for Kane)

Admittedly thats half a team but nowhere near 20

So you wouldn't be interested in taking Dendoncker, Vertonghen, Carrasco, Hazard #2, Tielemens, Witsel, or Batshuayi?

edit: or Nainggolan, who inexplicably didn't make their squad yet would walk into ours.

Let's see how the tournament goes and we'll have our answer. I still think I would rather have Belgium's squad than ours.

Anyone putting a bet on whether England go further than Belgium?

Which Benteke is playing?

There is a mobile Benteke, which is versatile and great for the professionals on the move.

I think Aston Villa launched the mobile Benteke

But Palace seems to have bought the base unit Benteke, which is powerful and looks great, and is very robust (with some good defensive features, funnily enough) - but not very easy to move around. And there are penalty clauses.

Is there are Benteke 3.0 for the Belgian international market?
