Graeme Souness has admitted he was sorry to see Jude Bellingham labouring in an unfamiliar position for England against Greece. Bellingham

was deployed as a false nine due to an injury to Harry Kane, despite having Ollie Watkins and Dominic Solanke as centre-forwards. The Real Madrid star

equalised before Vangelis Pavlidis struck deep into stoppage time to give Greece a 2-1 win.

“At times in the first half you could see Bellingham a little bit isolated trying to get at the Greece keeper because there was nobody else pressing him,” Souness wrote in his column for the http://ufabet999.app Mail.

“When Bellingham tried to press, the keeper could easily get the ball past him because there was nobody else pressing. The fact that there was nobody helping him made me realise that England didn’t know what they were doing. “

I have pity for Bellingham, the striker role he plays is clearly not his best position. He’s always scored goals when he’s been in the box. “

You only have to look closely at the goals he scored for Real Madrid and England last season – and the one he scored on Thursday night – to see Ollie Watkins come into that role after the hour mark, although the system is obviously not working so I think there has to be an early change. “

If Harry Kane is not available, you have to bring another centre-forward into the side. In this case, Watkins, who almost scored with his second touch after coming on just after the hour mark. “

Asking a midfielder with such a talented midfielder to play as a centre-forward does not make sense. England should start Watkins against Finland on Sunday if Kane is not available.”
