    Germans don't pick injured or half fit players, They prefer the whole squad to be ready to play. Unlike England in the past who've wasted a space hoping a player recovers just in time to be knocked out.

    Unless you’re Manuel Neuer.

    True, but he's only in the preliminary squad and they've named 4 keepers. 1 will have to be dropped.

    GK is an interesting position, as ideally you only want to use 1 and have a backup, but they're forced to name 3. Rather have an extra outfield player.

    Agreed. It’s not the same as taking two strikers only, while one was out all season with injury.

    Germany aren't short of decent keepers, that's for sure

    Ya, but they should’ve taken a fifth keeper. Just to be safe.

    I hink he’ll go.

    Fact playing 3cb with walker being one of them means there are no other options at WB past tripper. Think we’ll start wih below and with no other real stand out CB, if you moved Walker to RWB then you’re short in middle

    Pickford
    Walker Maguire Stone
    Tripper Hendo Dier Betrand
    Sterling Alli
    Kane

    Walker nailed on Trippier has had a good season and will be ahead of TAA.

    My selection specifically? Or just the quality of player to chose from?

    hope not. kids go and they stit there never get a minute and pick up bad habits off the england players who all have bad habits.

    Its ridiculous that this happens and a squad slot is bascially used up and usually you see an england manager slot someone in from another position rather than use them

    The quality in general. Not bad up top, but just gets worse as you go back.

    Trent Alexander-Arnold, Danny Rose and Ashley Young are all expected to be included in Gareth Southgate's 23-man England squad for the World Cup, according to Sky sources.
