THE BIGGER PICTURE: Richards decision to play Lineker on the right of a front three was questioned by Shearer as the ex-Manchester City defender eluded to his Barcelona days. Former England captain Shearer reminded him this was a World Cup ultimate XI and that Lineker usually played down the middle for his country.
