BBC rated Clyne at 7 and says he's probably ahead of Walker now. What? On an average / above average display against Australia? Basically if there's not much to choose between them, then pick the guy who'll be playing with four of his club team FFS.

As this is the BBC we're talking about, the shirt he wears at club level boosts his performance by at least 2.
 
It's still weeks away from the tournament but the media are already doing "Alli needs to keep his cool" into the ground.

They don't do it with other players. No one's warning about the consequences of Vardy diving or Wilshere not bringing enough clean piss with him.
 
Quick competition. Who will Roy leave out, point for each. Remember this is not who we would leave out.

Drinkwater
Barkley
 
We're taking/leaving players and ultimately changing the team (again) to accommodate certain players who are unfit, injured, out of form, not as good as they were, or out of position. When will we ever learn.
 
Reus didn't make the cut for the Germans! Bloody hell that's a massive shock. Top, top player, would walk into the England squad (and pretty much every other).

Injury related, apparently.
They've got the good sense to leave out crocked players, even those of his calibre.

As you might expect I'm hoping that Drinky will go ... apart from Dier he is the only defensively capable midfield option ... and Cahill is apparently having injections in his hip ... so Dier may be called upon as a centre back ...

So any two from:

Sturridge - won't see the tournament out without succumbing to injury
Barkley - sadly out of form and Captain fantasic <whistle> will have the "10" role
Henderson - just back from injury and well off pace - as is Wilshire but Woy loves "the liddle wogue" ...

Midfielders
Dele Alli, Ross Barkley, Eric Dier, Jordan Henderson, Adam Lallana, James Milner, Raheem Sterling, Jack Wilshere

Strikers

Looking at the squad, it reminds me of that other time English hopes went off towards France - and this is what happened...

So you are dropping Drinkwater and Townsend. I'd have thought Townsend is a plan B sort of player that he would take.
