Spurs have gone from having the majority of england team was from spurs squad to almost none. How the hell has this happened over last 3 years. It's criminal.

Because our english players are rubbish. I've been saying it for ages. Huge issue Spurs have is the english contingent, Dier, Winks, Alli are painfully poor players.

Even top 10 clubs have better English players nowadays.

Spurs need to cut their losses on them big time.

Good initial 33 from Southgate. Tomori can probably feel a bit hard done by given his form for Milan and I'd say Wan-Bissaka v James is probably quite a close run thing but other than that I can't see that there are any real misses in this squad.

Tomori and Konsa over Coady and White my only differences.

And maybe Ings and Bamford have a case over Watkins but he is going to get cut anyway as they wont see a minute of action.

Personally we should be learning lessons and Henderson should be nowhere near it. Hasnt played a minute in months.

No maddison is a joke with all those defenders picked.

Obviously going for the piss poor 5 at the back.

Hopefully Winks and Dier dropped will convince levy theyre useless but will show other clubs they aren't that valuable unfortunately

Penny for the thoughts for alli and winks. One thing not making squad but another not being one of the headline players ommited

I think Southgate doesn’t like him. I am not that convinced either.

It’s a strong squad, I would expect England to go very close with that squad.

Good indication of the state of our squad. We might not have any players in the England squad after this summer.

This is why we absolutely should not get a manager at the euros in; Look at how many of our players are going to be around for pre-season, it's ideal for a new manager coming in to start building some foundations.

Surprised there's all the talk of Bamford and not Ings to be honest, he'd provide a different option, much better technically than the strikers in the squad excluding Kane and has been quality

I really hope we won’t be building any foundations around Alli, Winks and Dier.

Although I think Levy is in for a shock if he thinks he can still charge big bucks for any of those players given they can’t even make a provisional 33-man squad for their national team.

I was thinking more Ndombele, Reguilon, Dele and Son. I think Copa America is under threat so maybe Lo Celso too but we're gonna have quite a large amount of players getting the summer off. I hope Winks and Dier are thinking they need to move if they want to get into the england team going forward :LOL:

Whilst i agree none of those 3 have any fundamental part to play in our squad. I still think there's £75m to be made from the 3 of them...maybe i'm wrong (probably). I could easily see a palace/watford spending 20-25 on winks. Or Everton going in at 50+ on Dele....someone might even give us a large sack of spuds for Dier
