With the emergence of Harry McGuire in partnership with Stones, would Tarkowski been able to get a game during the last few weeks ? With Gary Cahill not getting a starting place at all and the other two doing well, how difficult would it have been to break up the partnership ? You would presume that GS would also start the next round of games with the defence possibly picking itself( with the exception of Kyle Walker).
What do you think ?
I would love to think he would not have been ball watching when Croatia scored their second goal. :blue:
Maguire was the only one of that back 3 who I would like to see starting there again. Walker isn't a centre back and would be better as the wing back but I can't see him displacing Tripps any time soon and Stones well he always scares me with some of the passes he makes doesn't look assured and at times looks like he is trying to pass them in at times. Tarks or Cahill in that back 3 and I doubt they would have scored either goal and even if they did it wouldn't have been as easy as it was for them
Personally I would have had Tarks in before Maguire, but Gareth preferred Maguire and then came the injury. Given the performances of Maguire I can't say Gareth got it wrong, so no I don't think Tarko would have got in the team.
