Am I just getting forgetful as I move towards middle age or is this the first team the squad's ever been fed to us like this with journalists leaking names every few minutes?

Probably some agents angry of their clients ommision

 

[zook]

Ornstein, who'd initially reported that Garner was not in the squad, appears to have removed the mention of that from the article

 

[coollino]

This squad has Kier Starmers influence all over it

 

[Drico]

Did Michael Keane make the squad?

No, but apparently his new team-mate John Stones has...

 

[Rita_Poon]

happy energy swaps late in the day when the injured drop out and those overlooked get called up late.

oh how i'd laugh if maguire told him to swivel as he'd booked a holiday to boston with the family and kids to go to a few games anyway.

Harry Maguire has a criminal record. Means he can’t get a visa.

 

[Toffeeslam]

If the rumours are true Henderson has made the squad but Morgan Gibbs-White or Cole Palmer didn’t ?

England trying race Scotland home or something ?

Foden and palmer out along with slabhead

 

[the golden visionary]

I'm not sure what people are seeing that makes them think England will come close to winning the World Cup?

Palmers haircut not allowed in Mexico apparently.

I Get slabhead as his too slow and Foden has been crap for ages now

But Palmer can change a game and Gibbs-White has been outstanding for Forest this season

Henderson is just strange too me

Had no problems playing 3 matches in the US last summer, including against Everton.

 

[TexanToffee]

It's such a hassle to get to. I couldn't even figure out how to walk to the bar that Everton fans had planned to meet at before the game against Bournemouth last summer. The stadium itself is fine, but the surrounding area is abysmal. Lots of surface parking and nothing.

Palmer has been terrible for ages though to be fair

True and I haven’t followed his case in Greece much but I think the criminal charge was formalized within the last 12 months. Could be wrong of course
