    Gareth Southgate has named his squad for the Nations League:


    Goalkeepers: Jack Butland, Tom Heaton, Jordan Pickford

    Defenders: Trent Alexander-Arnold, Ben Chilwell, Joe Gomez, Michael Keane, Harry Maguire, Danny Rose, John Stones, Kieran Trippier, Kyle Walker

    Midfielders: Ross Barkley, Dele Alli, Fabian Delph, Eric Dier, Jordan Henderson, Declan Rice, James Ward-Prowse, Harry Winks

    Strikers: Harry Kane, Jesse Lingard, Marcus Rashford, Nathan Redmond, Jadon Sancho, Raheem Sterling, Callum Wilson




    With 2 all-English European finals and England in the semis of the Nations League, it's obviously coming home. :1980_boogie_down:

    The fewest questionable picks I've seen in ages there. Wan Bissaka instead of Trippier and Ben Foster instead of Butland.

    Would argue that Maddison could probably be in there too.

    There is an U21 tournament this summer though - I think that's why Wan Bissaka hasn't been picked.

    Hopefully, as Wan Bissaka has been 10x better than Trippier this season.

    Well, I've been right since 1966 when I said England wouldn't win anything else until they had a Hull City player in the team. So it looks like that will continue.

    They won the Tournoi de France in 1997 though, so you're wrong :bandit: <whistle>

    Friendly tournaments don't count, so I am right.

    Nowt friendly about the legendary Tournoi.

    That was a tournament of a level only the Euros and World Cup can aspire to reach.

    6 June in Portugal.

    Quite a few Champions League finalists in that squad too, they play the final on 1 June, though they'll be in Madrid so it isn't a much of a trek.

    Just realised that the semi vs Netherlands is on a Thursday night - seriously?

    Friday might be quiet at work...

    RB who has been superb for Palace all season, could've easily (and probably should've based on form) had a callup to the senior squad already.

    Once he gets transferred to Utd or another big club, he’ll be straight in there!

    Very possible - I think if the U21 Euros weren't this summer he would've been called up to this squad.

    Not sure being a Man Utd player makes you a guaranteed England player now though - there's only two in that squad and they're both strikers.

    Indeed, Man United's player of the season was Luke Shaw and he didn't make it.

    Looks good that young squad.



    Reckon that we should reach the semis at least in this one.
