England World Cup squad news


I can understand why Foden and Palmer have been left home, patchy form, injuries and whatnot… however leaving out Gibbs-White as well is an absolute farce. I think that confirms that Bellingham is going to play as a 10 instead of a deeper role which Southgate shoehorned him into during the Euro’s
 
Okay I was saying fuss over nothing with Maguire etc as it was just a case of leaving one mediocre defender at home for another but DJed Spence ffs?!
 
Djed Spence. This just gets worse and worse :lol:
I’ve always thought Spence is decent. Versatile, does a good job either side. Should have played for Spurs instead of the lamentable Porro for me. I’d have him in the side ahead of Livramento. Shame we’ve not gone for more left footed fullback cover though. Mind, I’d expect that O’Reilly will play every meaningful minute.
 
Bad that like. Not just saying it because he’s a mag, but Dan Burn has been embarrassing when he’s put on an England shirt. I’d be more than happy for him to prove me wrong of course
 
Usually with a squad for a major tournament you get a handful of selections that people don't agree with, and debate over them one way or the other.

With this one, there's unanimous disagreement over about half the squad! :lol:

He’s absolutely shite and shouldn’t have been getting picked at any point. However he’s been in every squad and he’s pretty much Tuchel’s only left footed centre half. With Colwill out he was pretty much guaranteed, sadly.
