Games are off in Dublin,St Petersburg to take over,result for England as they were due to play last 16 in Dublin if they won their group but now will play in England.
@monacoger
Yeah I read yesterday that the only reason that Wembley didn't get the games in Dublin for the Groups is because Wembley already have games those days, but weirdly/luckily enough it gets the last 16 game. How fortuitous for England.

I would like to think that when Southgate prunes his squad he gets rid of the out-of-form players and the ones who have hardly kicked a ball in months but he has named because they are always mentioned in the media, e.g. Jack Grealish and Jordan Henderson. Unless he is intending to play wing-backs then Trent Alexander Arnold is surplus to requirements as he cannot defend. Seventeen goals not enough to get Patrick Bamford in the squad (does not work hard enough) but clearly they need Marcus Rashford to make sure everyone gets fed. No room for James Maddison either. I think with Pope out, he has to go with Henderson between the sticks as Pickford has proved too prone to bad decisions.

If Kane does not limp off injured in the first game, then this must be the best chance Southgate will ever have to win the European Championship. It is effectively a home tournament. Our Group D matches are all at Wembley. If we win the Group, our ‘Round of 16’ match will be at Wembley (otherwise Copenhagen). Our Quarter Final will be in St Petersburg or Rome and the Semi Finals and Final are at Wembley.

When we have lost the opener to Croatia 1-0 and ground out a bore draw with the Jocks, we can start making other plans for 26th June onwards... <laugh>

That is not a bad bet right enough. The only drawback is there is a possibility that either France or Portugal won't get out their group. It is a mental group.
