Super Posted March 14 Report Share Posted March 14 No real surprises. Not looking good for Phillips now.

Selred Posted March 14 Report Share Posted March 14 We are weakest in defence. I'm guess Stones Maguire will be our back two for the Euro's, Chilwell left back? Not much competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think we need him particularly, but I'd rather him than Henderson either way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whereas attack wise lots of options as the forwards guys keep fit - fingers crossed ! Edited March 14 by Markthehorn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carey 6 Posted March 14 Report Share Posted March 14 Glad to see Branthwaite in. Been good this season & will be in the squad for years to come. I think there’s only 5 or 6 spaces up for grabs this summer barring any new injuries or injury come back from Shaw. The 3 GK’s will be in Walker, Stones, Maguire, Chilwell Those 5 midfielders all get in Foden, Rashford, Saka, Kane, Watkins all guarantees. Leaves 6 from Gomez, Branthwaite, Konsa, Dunk, Trippier TAA, Phillips Palmer, Bowen, Toney, Gordon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if I had to choose 1 between Phillips and Henderson, I’d pick Henderson every day of the week. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think Henderson is really pulling up any more trees at Ajax than he was in Saudi Arabia, though appreciate Gareth does like a holding midfielder so he has to take someone. Be great if we had another solid option at CB so Stones could play DM regularly/ when injury permits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luke_bristol Posted March 14 Report Share Posted March 14 (edited) Ben White has asked not to be considered for the squad. Not sure what the issue is with him, allegedly fell out with one of the coaching staff at the WC and was sent home and now this.

Don't think we need him particularly, but I'd rather him than Henderson either way To quote the Guardian: Southgate had been a factor in Phillips choosing to remain in the Premier League in January with a loan move to West Ham from Manchester City. But the midfielder has endured a torrid time at the London club, starting only three games, in which he has made a costly error against Bournemouth, received a red card at Nottingham Forest and been substituted at half-time against Burnley. He has come on as a substitute in four other matches. Seems the right decision to me. Southgate would have got stick for picking him in those circumstances so it's a no win situation as it always is with England managers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin phantom Posted March 14 Admin Report Share Posted March 14 My first live England game at Wembley for a few years, looking forward to it I'm not sure how strong the Brazil squad is, it is very heavy with European based players. Not sure if that is because they are playing us and Spain or if that is the way it is now? Got a ground tour on Sunday lunchtime too, so hopefully a great weekend 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing for England should be the peak of a players career, refusing a call up is not on in my opinion.
