Could do with picking at least ONE fit left back 


This - Trippier is useless at LB - not that great at RB recently either 

 

Tino should have been picked instead

Doesn’t sound fully great on Gordon by Southgate. Did the guy travel to Australia? Or is he actually getting some rest for his ankle?

 

He didn't travel to my knowledge.

Chuffed he’s picking on form, frustrating he’s doing it on the eve of a tournament as opposed to 6 months earlier where they could have got some more game time together.

33 named, has to come down to 26 I think? Knowing Slothgate he’ll probably lose Trafford, Dunk, Quansah, Wharton, Toney, Eze and AG9. Unfair as the show pony cunts Grealish and Maddison should probably be culled first.

Never heard of Adam Wharton

 

He's been given a ton of credit as one of the key players in Palace's run-in.

 

We were linked in January. Annoying as he could very well be our player if it weren't for the financial restrictions.

Tripps should be nowhere near if it is on form...

Would hope Gordon, Eze, Wharton, Palmer, Bowen all made it as they deserve it. But with 7 places to be cut and with other areas being short for options, I can't see them all making it in unfortunately. 

 

It looks difficult to get that squad down to 26 without leaving it abit short somewhere. That left back area looks a real issue. Wouldn't be for a strong manager, but don't have much faith in Southgate putting a formation and system in place to get the best of these players.

How on earth is Luke shaw in there? he hasn´t played a game for a couple of months...

Could end up playing a back 5 of barely any football in months if Pickford/Walker had issues: Ramsdale, Tripps, Maguire, Stones, Shaw. Surely a gamble

Biggest complaint here is that horrific positional breakdown. 

Aye particularly odd seeing Bellingham as a ‘forward’, but nowadays in particular the lines are blurred and depends a bit on formation. Maybe ‘attackers’ sounds better as midfield implies they will be deeper. Also often players with very similar roles are considered different positions - Mbappe is always considered a ‘forward’ while Foden is typically a ‘midfielder’. Though their games are different, they’re very often playing in the same or similar positions. 
 

Yeah I’m really fun at parties.

Good in the dressing room? Think he could have taken Dummet and Ritchie instead.
