My England World Cup Run 😂

Bro I picked England for International Cup mode and the game didn’t play at all. Immediately I clicked it, it removed every player that wasn’t English from my squad. All my Mbappe, Vinicius, De Bruyne... gone. Then it loaned me England players so I could even fill my team. So my starting 11 became Palmer, Foden, Bellingham, Saka... full Three Lions only. No Chelsea, no Arsenal mix. It felt weird at first but also kind of cool, like I was actually Gareth Southgate.

I’m in Group L and my group is Ghana, Croatia, and one other team. First match was vs Croatia and I just wanted to test things. I set difficulty to Beginner because I didn’t want stress. Big mistake 😂 I ended up winning 13-0. Palmer scored like 4 goals, Saka was dancing on their defenders, Bellingham was everywhere. It didn’t even feel like football again. Their defense was just standing. I kept thinking “this can’t be World Cup sha”. But it was fun to see all those England passes connect since the game forced me to use only them.

But I know Beginner level is just vibes. Once I move to Legendary or World Class, Croatia with Modric and Ghana with Kudus will punish me if I play like that. Still, 13-0 to start the group means my Palmer experiment is working. Now I just have to manage with only England players till the final. No buying, no transfers. If my LB is trash, I’ll suffer with him. That’s the real World Cup feeling.

You copying my Palmer tactic for your next game vs Ghana?
