Jude Bellingham getting the headlines and the love for his performance in El Clasico. One goal, one assist. One of the best players in the world. Needs to be in the England team at No 10, playing killer passes and storming the area. Morgan Rogers playing well but Bellingham a level above, a big-game player. Keeps delivering in El Clasico.
As for those debating his attitude, Bellingham’s a winner. England need that mindset. Best players tend to have an edge. Occasionally it goes over the top, and officials deserve more respect (Frau Tuchel has a point) but Bellingham’s still young, only 22. And he is a team player. 54 assists at Dortmund/Real. Voted England’s Player of the Year by fans. They see what he brings to their team. Goals, assists, ambition, hope.
World Cup’s going to be tough. Spain, France, Argentina, Brazil, Portugal etc. England will need their most fearless, game-changing players, those who don’t lose possession in the heat, those with total belief to progress deep into the tournament.
England with Bellingham will be more feared by opponents than without. A front 6 of Anderson, Rice; Saka, Bellingham, Gordon; and Kane offers plenty: ball-winners, playmakers, fliers and finishers. And an elite edge. #RMCF #ENG
