Replace Stones with Guehi and all will be fine.

Because Konsa and Guehi is our best pairing. It’s really simple.

Not well protected. Croatia walked past Rice and Anderson.

Thought this was his strangest selection. Neither Stones or Konsa play left side for their club where Guehi does. Guehi also used to playing with O'Reilly outside him. Makes more sense to play Guehi & 1 of the others. Konsa for extra height, Stones as ballplayer.

Why does everyone follow the same narrative. As soon as one commentator or pundit says something, everyone piles on. Have your own opinion, you muppet

Guehi and Stones would have been better actually. Guehi brings leadership and calm.

Easy to point the blame at stone and konsa but they were fine when everyone in front started actually doing their jobs and not dropping deeper and deeper The second goal look at that marking.. Bellingham is marking the ref Kane marking nothing Anderson and madueke on 1 guy

He left the stable one out to do punditry what does he expects when glass-made Stones hardly plays

Experiment didn’t work - Konsa is a constant and needs Guehi next to him and some full backs who can defend x

Stones and Konsa looking shaky is nasty work, Tuchel might be on the phone to Guehi like it’s deadline day in January. 2014 me thought Cahill and Jagielka was the height of security, turns out we’ve been chasing that feeling ever since.

Guehi and Konsa for me not only because I’m a villa fan but stones injury record and him getting done by a drunk Watkins last game of season shows he’s slowing down also shows why maguire should’ve been taken

They didn’t look stable because Croatia was good, any centre back pairing will look better against Ghana.

Well they’re certainly not going to become a stable partnership by chopping and changing after one game

I wonder why suddenly putting in Stones, who has barely played and can't defend made the defence less stable. Thank god Croatia dudbt have a half drunk Ollie Watkins playing for them else we'd have been completely fucked. Konsa and Guehi please.

Everything Wayne Rooney, Joe Hart and Micah Richards described about ball retention and controlling games is exactly what Kobbie Mainoo brings. Tuchel’s decision to start Declan Rice and Elliot Anderson shouldn’t be viewed as kobbie Mainoo not being good enough. It tells you the type of football Tuchel wanted to play throughout this tournament. By picking two defensive minded midfielders, he knowingly sacrificed ball retention, composure and creativity and England paid the price. Mainoo thrives under pressure. He’s technically gifted, receives the ball in tight spaces and keeps his team in control. England lacked all of that. This isn’t about bringing him on when you’re chasing the game,it’s about starting him if you had intentions of playing any other way asides sitting back and absorbing pressure. He would have given England the control they desperately needed against. Tuchel then made things worse with his substitutions. Instead of introducing attacking players to push Argentina back and give them something to think about, he invited more pressure by bringing on Nico O’Reilly and Dan Burn. Those subs basically said “we surrender”. His post match explanation doesn’t hold up either. If England lacked the aerial presence to deal with Argentina’s direct play, then why leave Harry Maguire at home? Defending long balls and dominating the box is exactly what Maguire is known for, yet Tuchel chose Ezri Konsa, John stones and Dan Burn instead. England’s biggest problem wasn’t the players it was Thomas Tuchel. From his squad selection and starting XI to his substitutions and in game management, his decisions consistently weakened England rather than giving them the best chance to win.
