A place to discuss Englands squad and performances in the three matches we'll play.
Don't think Harry Kane's broken metatarsal helpedI can't believe we went out on penalties in the group stage
Wouldn't it be better to merge the England Thread with this thread and temporarily transfer it to this sub-forum?A place to discuss Englands squad and performances in the three matches we'll play.
I must say much as I dislike Liverpool (even more so with their twatty Kane behaviour) I did like to see their midfield three of Milner-Henderson-Oxlaide-Chamberlain.
Especially given midfield engine room has been a weak area for us.
Gives another option.
It didn't look good for Oxlade Chamberlain last night. I wonder if he's going to miss the world cup now?
The way he was writhing around and screaming in agony suggests it was a bad one.
Shame for him, think Trent Alexander Arnold might get a call up now, seems a guaranteed starter for Liverpool either in midfield or defence.Joe Gomez has just had an op and will miss the rest of the season and the world cup.
I think I read that the announcement would be on May 16th.The squad must be announced soon, I'm praying Southgate does not pick any Spurs players. I'd rather they be given the summer off and not be infected by the stench of mediocrity that infests this England team. If we get beyond the group stage I'll be amazed. We have no decent goalie, no good centre halves, no creativity in midfield and a manager whose only claim to fame was that he got relegated with Boro. It's going to be embarrassing, I'm dreading it.
Seeing as we have zero possibility of winning the world cup, or even getting to the knockout stage if we're being honest, why bother turning up? Hopefully the Russians will try and kill another Spy or something so we can boycott the whole thing and not humiliate ourselves.
