Pre emptive reports saying Rashford and Henderson have been left out of the provisional squad. Rather unlike Gareth. Sounds like Gordon has a good shot of going now instead of Rashford.
England's provisional Euro 2024 squadpublished at 14:00 14:00BREAKING Goalkeepers: Dean Henderson (Crystal Palace), Jordan Pickford (Everton), Aaron Ramsdale (Arsenal), James Trafford (Burnley). Defenders: Jarrad Branthwaite (Everton), Lewis Dunk (Brighton), Joe Gomez (Liverpool), Marc Guehi (Crystal Palace), Ezri Konsa (Aston Villa), Harry Maguire (Manchester United), Jarell Quansah (Liverpool), Luke Shaw (Manchester United), John Stones (Manchester City), Kieran Trippier (Newcastle), Kyle Walker (Manchester City). Midfielders: Trent Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool), Conor Gallagher (Chelsea), Curtis Jones (Liverpool), Kobbie Mainoo (Manchester United), Declan Rice (Arsenal), Adam Wharton (Crystal Palace). Forwards: Jude Bellingham (Real Madrid), Jarrod Bowen (West Ham), Eberechi Eze (Crystal Palace), Phil Foden (Manchester City), Jack Grealish (Manchester City), Anthony Gordon (Newcastle), Harry Kane (Bayern Munich), James Maddison (Tottenham), Cole Palmer (Chelsea), Bukayo Saka (Arsenal), Ivan Toney (Brentford), Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa).
Gordon and Trippier made it, feel for Pope but can't really complain. honestly think Tino and Hall have a good chance at the next squad for the WC '26.
I'd say if they continue on this trajectory they will definitely be there. We have a problem at LB right now and our RB's although class are getting on. I think the squad looks good. He's chopped a few players I thought he should do as already mentioned. Can't think of there is anyone who missed out I am surprised about though.
Ramsdale, Dunk, Wharton, Quansah, Maddison, Bowen, Grealish / Mainoo / Jones. Not convinced by Grealish... but he'll go. Mainoo / Jones - take your pick - Jones more experienced obviously.
Plays the CAM role at Madrid and I guess if you are including Foden and Palmer etc in that role then yeah? Starting XI for me: Pickford Walker, Stones, Guehi, Trippier TAA, Rice Saka, Bellingham, Foden Kane Personally I'd drop Trafford, Quansah, Dunk, Maguire, Gallagher, Jones, Bowen I think (if Shaw wasn't fit, I'd take Bowen I think) Leave your a second XI: Rambo Gomez, Konsa, Branthwaite, Shaw Mainoo, Wharton Eze, Palmer, Gordon Watkins With back up: Henderson Maddison Grealish Toney Probably be very close to Seabass' prediction though
And Madison and Eze really, just seems weird calling attacking midfielders forwards, and makes it seem like there's twice as many forwards as midfielders.
Yeah, had to pad out that midfield with TAA! I know he plays there for England but he's a ****ing RB!
Not that we'll ever find out but we should be pushing the boat out to try and nick Olise from France - Born and raised in London and I'd have him ahead of several like Bowen etc. Surprised as he missed out on the French squad...
