Jonjo Shelvey (now playing for Burnley)

[AyeDubbleYoo]

He'll be there but it'll most likely be for Tom Davies or Michael Keane or something like that.

 

Nah

[sbnufc]

He'll go and not play a minute in the 3 games England play

He'll go and not play a minute in the 3 games England play

 

This is my concern, especially if Southgate is pressured into taking him by the media. I can see him being isolated which may bring back some of his daemons.

[NUFC_Chris]

Hope he gets a call-up. I think he deserves it, and it can only be his previous misdemeanours that's preventing it. He 100% should be in on form and ability. Also, be nice to have a Newcastle player in the England set-up again, I might even show a bit more interest this time.

I don’t think he’s an actual phsychopath yee kna

The only problem with Shelvey getting called up is I might have to give a passing interest to watching England games again. Not sure i can be arsed with that hassle

I'm not saying he is. I just don't think he'd enjoy it if he was there, but wasn't involved.

i can see him getting called up to the 30 (?) for the friendlies ahead of the squad announcement now tbh

[STM]

Yep, I hope he gets a go in one of the friendlies.

[Guest chopey]

Yep, I hope he gets a go in one of the friendlies.

 

I think the friendles are after the squad annoucement.

don't they generally announce 30 or so then trim after final friendlies?

[Tiresias]

Southgate is at the Everton game according to the guardian specifically to watch Shelvey. Watch the pressure on him cause him to lose his head or something

Yes.

[Pilko]

I reckon he and Jama will get in the 30 but both be cut before the 23, barring any major injuries.

[Disco]

Would be surprised if he calls up Maya Jama mind. Very leftfield.

[Cronky]

He might get into the squad if there are a few injuries, but otherwise I think there are better all-round candidates. He's very one paced, and at World Cup level you can't bank on unlocking a defence with one long pass.

International football is usually a lot slower than the PL and Shelvey has done really well recently in the Premier League.

 

Which all round candidates do you think should go?

[Shush]

I had a slight worry like this, but actually think he's turned a corner now. He will be fine, just hope it's a game he shines in. I think he would be brilliant option for England.

100% allardyce has his dogs targetting shelvey in this, no doubt in my mind it'll be one of his main tactics for the game

Better all round candidates

 

*googles squad*

 

Midfielders: Dele Alli (Tottenham), Lewis Cook (Bournemouth), Eric Dier (Tottenham), Jordan Henderson (Liverpool), Adam Lallana (Liverpool), Jesse Lingard (Man Utd), Jake Livermore (West Brom), Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (Liverpool), Raheem Sterling (Man City), Jack Wilshere (Arsenal)

 

Yes, Livermore and Cook are adapt to the multi-paced intricacies of WC football.

 

 

[xLiaaamx]

Considering there's those two, then Lallana and Wilshere are made of glass.

[xLiaaamx]

Jack Cork or Ward Prowse would be called up first though.

of that lot i'd argue maybe wilshere and lallana are who you'd want to unlock a packed defence ahead of shelvey tbh, but none of them are who you'd want against better teams trying to exploit the pace and movement england have all over the pitch

[Guest firetotheworks]

Tbh though, whoever's in there probably isn't going to play, so I wonder if Southgate's thinking more in terms of squad chemistry. Probably giving him too much credit, but you never know.
