No doubt the 10Ks per week club wages, paid rain or shine,
will dull any pain of not being called up for a Euro tournament that
England will not win, with or without them.
Tells me Walker will make way, as he is ignored in that strange commentYou must log in or register to see media
Dier and Maddison might have been in there - but form and fitness counted against them.
Skip to 1:10 for Hojbjerg's announcement
Or watch the whole thing because it's a rather creative way to announce the squad

...or 1:35 for the Danish CB we like being linked with
He was training by the end of the season IIRC, just not ready to start games.
Oh well, back to the 23rd round of the greatest injustice in football history: Trent Alexander-Arnold not making the England squad...

The first sentence is probably caused by the second.
Nice to see that some Man Utd traditions don't go away.

Squad announced. He’s taking all 4 RBs.
My guess is that he sees TAA and Trippier as good options as more attacking RBs in some games, and also sees TAA as capable of covering midfield, and Walker can cover CB.
From that I’d pick, in a 433
D.Henderson
James Maguire Stones Shaw
Henderson Rice Mount
Foden Kane Sterling
That England squad excites me. Could easily win the euros. Although centre half does worry me slightly
Lots of exciting attacking options but yeah, the defence is worrying. As much as I’d like to see us play 433 or 4231 I think Southgate will stick with the more conservative 3 at the back, with Walker as a CB. I think he’s most likely to pick:
Pickford
Walker Maguire Stones
TAA Henderson Rice Shaw
Foden Kane Sterling
Though I always feel we play less exciting football like this so I’m not sold on it. CB is a major worry though, if you could drop in the peak Ferdinand/Terry partnership then this team would be elevated for sure.
Hasn’t picked Lingard for the final squad but is gonna start him in the warmup game tomorrow against Austria.
Sound logic.
