Kane will start 100% certain on that. VVD I've never rated always been vulnerable to pace.

Well he’ll have no trouble chasing Kane.

Same with Toney. We have no one to exploit that weakness. Holland are an attacking side other night against Turkey they were left open VVD was out wide took one for the team when their player got past him.

You don't rate him? You've said many times before that you won't ever watch Liverpool so with that logic I'm assuming you've hardly ever seen him play?

Seen him for Southampton Holland.

You've never rated a footballer who has won the footballer of the year in this country? A player who no one dribbled past that season.

Since Pickford crocked him, he's not been the same player but before that he was as quick as any defender in the game.


Here's another past stat for a player who has ALWAYS been vulnerable to pace.

Sane, Mbappe & Bale all beaten! Van Dijk becomes fastest player in 2018-19 UCL

Liverpool's Virgil van Dijk ran faster than any other player in the Champions League last season, seeing off the likes of Leroy Sane, Kyle Walker, and Kylian Mbappe.



The Holland international centre-back isn't known for his speed when compared to the likes of his Liverpool team-mates Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane.

But the world-class Dutch defender was clocked running at a top speed of 34.5km per hour - faster than anyone else in the competition.

Van Dijk's fastest sprint came at the very end of the first leg of Liverpool's semi-final clash with Barcelona at the Nou Camp, which the Reds lost 3-0.

Barcelona launched a counter attack in the 92nd minute, and Van Dijk was required to sprint back into position to stamp out the threat.

Manchester City winger Sane recorded the second fastest top speed in the Champions League last season; 34,4km/h.



Age could be catching up with him and injuries haven't helped but he's better than you think he is.


He's definitely better than what we've got.

Watkins is quick and runs in behind the defender, something Kane doesn't do.
It's all irrelevant anyway because Southgate will always pick Kane to start regardless of whether he's playing well or not.

I'm wracking my brain to try and remember who benefits in our prediction competition if Toney plays and Kane doesn't.

Sly old fox our brin 😉. He will be gutter if France win tonight..
