Doesn't make sense if Southgate no matter what has certain players that he'll bring into squad regardless if they're on form or even played then why not just not picking them players (as they're going anyway and instead have a look at players that's on form and not had chance yet and see how they get on? Don't make sense at all 🤷♂️
England actually lack an attacking midfielder with discipline. Foden, Grealish etc can't be trusted in centre midfield and so, you end up with a super negative middle 3. Maddison is someone you can throw into that midfield 3 who is attacking, but can do enough defensively so not to expose the team too much. It's mad he isn't in the squad.
Laura as stunning as ever even in the casual gear
Someone needs to tell Southgate that if a team scores a goal, the opposition have to score 2.
James is a real quality player and he always gets overlooked it's a disgrace
12 defenders? Baffling….goes to show Southgate’s intentions for the World Cup… parking a bus in front the goal won’t win games
Honestly talk sport panel & Leicester fans a like Madison I've watched a few times just like jack grealish a one trick pony you have to reinvent yourself and I wouldn't pick him or jack cut inside and have a pop is that it eh shocking
The fact that Maddison and Sancho don't get in when there's some absolute sausages in that squad is just 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Southgate needs sacking I think that’s pretty obvious after he failed the euros after yet another easy run for England as usual I think Maguire is gonna be perfect example of why Southgate should be sacked if he starts him then it’s defo time to go
Southgate is just setting himself up to fail. So negative, so defence and clearly he lacks creativity.
i have always said Maddsion is a far better player than Mount.
100 percent! But it seems this has stemmed from the u21s with Gareth plus he is a cautious manager
Laura woods is right. This england world cup team better WIN in quatar
God, the GREAT Sir Bobby Robson got more criticism from the British press
We might as well stay home. England will never win a competition.
Southgate does get some things right and his record in tournaments is hard to argue with, but he's such a naturally cautious guy. Feels like he's a staff member in the manager's job
Madison is a better player than Grealish IMO
I'm sorry but England has a poor group of players at the moment and will do really bad at the world cup. Henderson? Maguire? Shaw? Bowen? Coady? Dyer? Trippier? These players will never win you the world cup it's actually sad to see that England still has old school type of players and hasn't moved on with more technical players.
Madison is average at best
He takes ballingham ,foden for gods sakes . Mount .non of them are better players than maddisson
Southgate will get sacked soon.. How on earth is McGuire selected and Ben White not?
What difference would one or two tweaks to squad personnel?
It's not like England have a Prayer of Winning the World Cup this year is it?
The English Football Fans may as well Support The Women!
Southgate will still play mount ahead of Foden and Henderson ahead of Bellingham. There’s no chance of him picking Maddison and no chance of us winning anything with Southgate in charge.

He also likes a Casino after being released from the England squad due to illness
Yeah I'm disappointed but lol As If he would get near the pitch .
It is a mystery to me too and I'm not even an England fan. At this stage Maddison might as well switch allegiance to Ireland because he just can't do anything to earn a cap under this manager. Yet he is a cool-headed player who would give England exactly what they need during those matches like the Euro final where they are having to withstand heavy pressure and can't keep the ball. Also a lot more direct than Grealish when it comes to picking a pass or shooting from distance.
No – show pony , only turns up when he fancies it . Just like Mason Mount , he’s not a team player
Bet maddisons laughing after that s@@t show tonight
Southgate want a big pay off thats why he ain't picking him
Grealish must be the singer on the plane 62years a FOX.
Completely agree. He gets goals and is standout at Leicester even when others like Tielemans are faltering. He can take free kicks too and having just watched Reece James (really!?!) sky one from just outside the box that's obviously a skill England need.
We don't stand a chance with Southgate
It doesn't matter whether he picks Madison…. He'll still play 5 at the back and 2 DM's and park the bus…. He needs to move to a 4-2-3-1 and become more expansive. Funny how they're crying for Madison and not Sancho???
Nowhere near good enough.
12 Defenders…and starting Maguire 🤣😂🤣😭.Southgate in 🤸💯
Southgate 🤡
Southgate-I pick players on current form
Southgate-I’m picking maguire
Get pochetino!
Maddison is nkt England worthy , talk sport do talk some shut at times
Who's Laura Woods? (apart from a tick box)
I wish the presenters would realise that the way the players speak to them in interviews isn’t important.
12 Defenders in a squad, WTF guys, doesn't that tell you about Southgate's failings. No forward-thinking players and Saka, OMG, played the poor guy so far out of position that he looked like a Sunday league player. For the sake of the future of English Football, get rid of the defensive attitude, the overloading of defenders and last but not least get rid of Southgate. Actually, I'm a Scot so really, I'm loving watching the turmoil that is England but as a football fan, we need the best England team in tournaments. Southgate OUT
If Gareth could he would take 1 right back from each EPL team.
He needs to start forget at 70 minutes.
Kane
Grealish Maddison Sterling
Rice Bellingham
Chilwell Tomori Stones Walker
Pickford
Trent can come in when needed.
maddison ♂️♀️
I can’t see Maddison ever being a regular England international
The guy went to a casino instead of playing for his country. Gareth is a man of honor and trust
