  1. For reasons I won't pretend to understand, we've had an export error where it's overlayed Sterling's card twice over Eze's?? If you're watching this Eberechi we wholeheartedly apologise. You lot can make your own joke about us all wishing we could double our Sterling 💰💰etc etc

  2. With the depth of talent available it seems criminal to take players who have being solidly out of form and fitness the entire year or more. Like McGuire, shaw, Henderson and chillwell. Form in previous tournaments means nothing. We need players who can do the business right now, not two or three years ago.

  3. I'm looking forward to looking back at this when the squads announced. I think you are probably spot on. Do I think some of those should go? Hell no, but you're right, Gareth will pick them.

    The most tragic of them is definitely Rashford. He turns up once every 6 games, doesn't engage in 50/50s, doesn't really defend, and is indecisive in the final third. Excepting his pace and a very occasional long shot, the guy is just not that good. Trashford is still riding on the coattails of his "potential".

  4. Can't believe we're not taking Cole Palmer, but we are Connor Gallagher 😢. Adam's probably right about his predictions for the squad, but it's just infuriating to see England making the same old mistakes again and again. If Harry Maguire gets on the pitch in the finals, we're f***ed anyway. 😢

  5. I’m a MU fans for life ..

    I don’t think England should bring lazy Rashford ….
    He don’t pass , defend and can’t play high line

  6. They were saying that the Brazil team were too young and inexperienced, but it was obviously not the case.
    Maybe it's Southgate who is too stuck in his ways ??

  7. 06:30 YES thank you so much for this its my biggest pet hate when people say that. Like its a certificate for doing really well at your club as if youre in year 2, rather than being about whose most likely to win games of football

  8. Too young too inexperienced?…i remember February march time 1998 some were saying the same things about Michael Owen….then i watched him at Hillsborough against my club bang a hat trick and thought yeah i don't care how old he is he's going to the world cup….if they look the part they go regardless of age and experience

  9. Think youre probably spot on. Some tight calls. Gallagher AND Henderson seems overkill, but can see it happening. Gordon is in better form than Rashford, but Rashford probably goes.

    However, call me a pessimist, call me a traditionalist, but I dont see all 23 of these players escaping injury. At least one will come a cropper Im convinced. My guess would be one of the left backs not making it. And actually it could be a blessing. With possible cover from Trippier and Gomez (and Trent of course being a possibility at RB), I think there's maybe just enough insurance. Which could open the door for one of Maddison or Gordon to squeeze in.

  10. Incredible how Loftus-Cheek wasn’t even included in the discussion for midfielders. He’s having his best season at Milan and playing regularly european football unlike Gallagher, Henderson or Mainoo. He’s a goal threat too, so can be the perfect back up for Bellingham if at some point he needs to rest

  11. Jones is going to be part of the Liverpool squad for this Thursday, if he stays fit and plays well then he has to go to the euros.

  12. 1 Pickford 14 Chilwell

    2 Walker 15 Trippier

    3 Shaw 16 Konsa

    4 Rice 17 Gomez

    5 Stones 18 TAA

    6 Maguire 19 Manoo

    7 Saka 20 Gallagher

    8 Maddison 21 Watkins

    9 Kane 22 Palmer

    10 Bellingham 23 Grealish

    11 Foden 24 Bowen

    12 Pope 25 Gordon

    13 Johnstone 26 Toney

  13. If Shaw is fit, he goes. I think Pope does too. He would be mad not to take Mainoo. I think the same applies to Palmer. If you want an extra wide forward, drop Rashford.

  14. I think the only player with a chance of being included that you missed is Eric Dier. I mean I understand that he's not first choice but he's more experienced (both club and national level) than most of the other options and he's starting reguarly now in Bayern so I do believe that Gareth Southgate will consider him
