Regis Le Bris Eyes Former Sunderland Star as the Game-Changing Piece in Promotion Quest
Henderson’s return to Sunderland brings not only his playmaking skills but also the potential to mentor rising stars Bellingham and Rigg, both tipped as future England internationals. While the Sunderland midfield has thrived under Le Bris this season, Henderson’s presence could slow their progress. However, the experience and leadership of a former England captain, especially one with deep ties to the club, remain invaluable. Even with limited game time, Henderson could be the missing piece in Sunderland’s midfield and a key factor in their promotion bid.

Stoke City, left-back lesson and the change Gareth Southgate must make for England vs Slovakia
Stoke City legend Mike Pejic is optimistic about Steven Schumacher’s recent transfer moves and extends a warm welcome to new signing Eric Bocat. Pejic is excited to see what Bocat will bring to the squad, particularly appreciating the presence of two natural left-sided players with Bocat and Enda Stevens. He emphasizes the importance of balance in any football system, whether it focuses on possession or counter-attacking.
Pejic also shares his thoughts on the England team for Euro 2024, noting their struggle to find a left-footed player for the left-back role during the tournament. He stresses the need for left-sided players to stretch teams and utilize the width of the field effectively. Reflecting on the tournament, Pejic was impressed with Georgia’s spirit, teamwork, and forward-thinking approach, highlighting their ability to work the ball out of tight areas with good support and execute swift counter-attacks.
Turning to England, Pejic envisions a lineup with Watkins up front, Saka and Foden on the flanks, Kane playing off the front, and Bellingham linking up with Kane. Rice would provide defensive stability, while Walker and Shaw support from the back. Pejic believes this balanced lineup can produce exciting and winning football, urging Gareth Southgate to trust these players against Slovakia in the last 16. He is confident that if England adheres to these principles, they can progress through the knockout stages and potentially win the tournament.
