Vell, vell, vell . . . .I have had ze call! Mine country expects so I'm back with an international special edition of Predict Potter's Picks!
I give you - Suggest Southgate's Selections or SSS*.


Now to Germany. We've only beaten this lot once in the knockout rounds of a tournament, I believe they are leading us 4-1, hopefully this will soon be altered to the '66 World Cup Final score of 4-2!

The format will be the same as PPP. We're looking for you to suggest Gareth Southgate's starting formation and team. You might want to take your time over considerations though as there could be more injuries or cheeky wee Billy Gilmour could sneak into the camp for some more 15 minute long hugs and tugs with his besties!

[MENTION=23795]Hugo Rune[/MENTION]I’ve been lurking for most of the season, but never got round to posting a prediction. If you decide to run it next season - and I hope you will - I’ll be participating.
Could you please tell me what you mean by ‘defensive formation’ - is it simply the formation we adopt without the ball? For example, if we’re playing 352 when attacking (or 1-0-9 if the opposition is City), converting to 532 when we lose the ball, I should specify 532; correct?
This was problematic with PPP due to players moving position so much, so instead of adjudicating the formation myself (which was tough), the formation on the BBC match report will be the official reference I score from. (see below)


*This is in no way related to or intended to be a reference to the now defunct but less than popular SS or Schutzstaffel. References to the second world such as quoting ditties like 'two world wars and one world cup' are simply not on in 2021. Quite how we'd boast about 'two world wars, one world cup and a victory in the last 16 of the Euro2020 competition that actually took place in 2021 because of a global pandemic' is beyond me.


Predict Potter's Picks 20/21 Results

A massive well done to [MENTION=5194]NEASTGULL[/MENTION] who is the inaugural champion of PPP! This was generally a two horse race with the excellent [MENTION=14065]origigull[/MENTION] throughout the season. Both pickers had a great knack of getting very close Potter's thoughts . . . almost as if they were related to him or part of his team??? The final round was very very close. Seven posters predicted the line-up but failed to guess the formation which, in my mind anyway, was pretty conclusively a 4-3-3:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/57132109

Well done to these folks though for getting all 11 players against Arsenal:

[MENTION=1200]Harry Wilson's tackle[/MENTION], [MENTION=13265]Super Steve Earle[/MENTION], [MENTION=14314]mashman156[/MENTION], [MENTION=35904]A1X[/MENTION], [MENTION=25150]fin[/MENTION]don Fan, [MENTION=14114]Lincolnshire Seagull[/MENTION], [MENTION=14065]origigull[/MENTION]

Commiserations to [MENTION=14065]origigull[/MENTION] who our runner-up would have landed the title if GP had played a back 3 in that final match!

How to play:

As per usual, you just need to select Potter’s starting 11 alongside his starting formation.

1 point - Correctly selected player
3 points - Correctly selected formation according to the BBC match report.
11 points - Bonus if you correctly select the whole team and formation.

25 points is your top score, just like in F1.

Competition closes just before the official team release (1.5hr before K.O. i think . . . so 15:30 on Tuesday 29th June).

It's easy!


So . . . . . .

Will Southgate change the formation to cope with Germany's wingbacks?

Will Southgate learn the lessons from the Scotland score draw?

Is Kane undroppable?

Will Henderson return to the formation with his experience and leadership?

Did Maguire do enough against the Czechs or will Gareth replace him for Mings.

Does Foden return and if so, does the impressive Saka also start?

Will Mount or Chilwell be available after isolation?


What do YOU think he'll do?

Have you got what it takes to Suggest Southgate's Selections?

It's over to you!

*****THIS COMPETITION WILL CONTINUE WHILST ENGLAND REMAIN IN THE TOURNAMENT*******

A fantastic tournament. Thank you [MENTION=23795]Hugo Rune[/MENTION] :bowdown:

I will bow out of this one having got a hypothetical 25 points for the first game. I'm somehow into round 2 in the scores predictictions and that's enough to worry about for now.

Well done [MENTION=5194]NEASTGULL[/MENTION] an awesome opponent. Do you know any groundsmen? :angel:

How to play:

As per usual, you just need to select Potter’s starting 11 alongside his starting formation.

1 point - Correctly selected player
3 points - Correctly selected formation according to the BBC match report.
11 points - Bonus if you correctly select the whole team and formation.

25 points is your top score, just like in F1.

Competition closes just before the official team release (1.5hr before K.O. i think . . . so 15:30 on Tuesday 29th June).

It's easy!


So . . . . . .

Will Southgate change the formation to cope with Germany's wingbacks?

Will Southgate learn the lessons from the Scotland score draw?

Is Kane undroppable?

Will Henderson return to the formation with his experience and leadership?

Did Maguire do enough against the Czechs or will Gareth replace him for Mings.

Does Foden return and if so, does the impressive Saka also start?

Will Mount or Chilwell be available after isolation?


What do YOU think he'll do?

Have you got what it takes to Suggest Southgate's Selections?

It's over to you!

*****THIS COMPETITION WILL CONTINUE WHILST ENGLAND REMAIN IN THE TOURNAMENT*******

Sorry, no way I'm trying to choose Potter's starting choice for Southgate to pick (yes, spot the crucial typo). I'm out to the real football is back. Thanks for last season Hugo. I'll be back next season to try and improve on my creditable 28th place despite joining the party late.

Sussex, by the sea
Pickford

Walker
Stones
Maguire
Shaw

Phillips
Henderson

Saka Grealish Foden

Kane

Thats my guess on Gsouths choices





I wouldn't play Kane, probably D C-L . . . not a fan and he's out of form. will probably be eating my words next Wed. . . .

Pickford

Walker, Stones, Maguire, Trippier

Rice, Phillips, Mount

Sterling, Kane, Foden

Thats the team (except Maguire for Mings) that won against the expected main rival in the group, Croatia so it seems it his trusted eleven against strong sides.

Something else to look forward to during the competition and the run up to the upcoming season. Well done HR. I will go with:
Pickford
Walker - Maguire - Stones - Trippier
Phillips - Rice - Mount
Sterling - Kane - Foden with 4-3-3.
Southgate can't comprehend a good 3-5-2.
