    Out tomorrow but who would you take in the 23 man team?

    Have to take 3 keepers so 2 players for each position:

    4-3-3 for me

    GK
    1 Pope
    2 Butland
    3 Pickford

    RB - Walker, Trippier
    LB - Bertrand, Young
    CB - Jones, Smalling,
    CB - Stones, Cahill
    CM - Dier, Shelvey
    CM - Henderson, Delph
    AM - Alli, Lallana
    RW - Rashford, Walcott
    LW - Sterling, Lindgard
    CF - Kane, Vardy

    Lascelles I’m better than at least 2 of those CB’s. Otherwise I’d agree with what you’ve suggested.

    England’s curse. No matter the manager the same trash gets picked time and again. Not one of those cbs are good enough. Stones has potential but that’s it. Dunk, Lascelles, Maguire and even Keane all better IMO.

    Otherwise agree!

    Jones and Smalling are ****e.
    Cahill is past it.
    Has Stones even progressed?

    My CBs would be Lascelles, Maguire, and the 2 Burnley lads Mee and T..... however you spell it.

    I'd definitely take Milner. He'd be one of my first names on the list.

    Joe Hart doesn't do those dandruff adverts any more. Even they've dropped him.

    One of the best chants at SJP a few years ago. To Joe Hart: "you can stick your head and shoulders up arse....". <laugh>

    Think it was when Tiote scored a wonder goal and they got the ref to chalk it off because they are Man City.

    I'd be very surprised if Shelvey is picked. It's not the safe England way.

    They have dropped Hart so I maybe wrong. I hope so.

    I think Lascelles and Maguire have to go. They'd probably be my starting pair. I don't think Cahill is worth taking. 2 from Smalling, Jones, Tarkowski, Stones, Mee is fine for me.

    There's a breaking story that Lascelle's and Shelvey are both in the squad.

    I started it.

    You know I forgot about Jadon Sancho. He has been outstanding in the Bundesliga apps for Dortmund.

    I'd be tempted to take him
