Absolutely shocking once again today. Do feel like he’s past it at this point.

Diop’s mum is Moroccan and his dad is Senegalese. Great timing.

Like he does in all things. Pathectic.
If you had done your research Engalnd always take an extra keeper as a trining keeper. Not registered to play but there for the squad.
I think it's an excellent squad. Even if I did want Trent involved. Trent hasn't been great all this season and has been injured too. He has maybe a dozen games to show his worth. I actually expect he will . Spence hasn't shown much of late. He'll probably show this in trraining. The first part of the set up is an elimination squad except for a few. I wouldn't be surprised if Dowman gets more game for Arsenal and if any of the superstars fade he'll be in. Think he's a better bet than Rashford.
Hopefully Bowen starts down the right against Uruguay, he won't have to chase back as much without AWB at right back.
I’m surprised you didn’t mention any of the youth players 😉

What the fuck is a training goalkeeper? If you are looking for some cannon fodder why not take Henderson or Johnston? Fucking weird selection.

lump on Spain, got no chance when Solanke, Spence and Henderson are getting picked 

Oh and the RB for Real Madrid isn't deemed good enough. Djed Spence or TAA...... tough one!

Watkins, Shaw and James don’t make the 35 man squad but Dan Burn does.

Good stuff. I see the BBC are pissing their knickers again because the English Cafu 'Trent', the right back who can't defend isn't in the squad again. Get over it.
Fuck knows why Henderson keeps getting picked though.

He's scored eight premier league goals this season, which puts him joint 15th on the top scorers list. He's level with Morgan Rogers, and only one behind Cole Palmer, just for some context.

He also has six assists, which quite surprisingly places him joint fourth, and he's only two behind Cherki who's in second. Fernandes is miles ahead with 16.

So the total goal involvements is 14 - only six players can beat that.

If he played for Spurs I’m sure Ferret would rate him then.
