4 players in that squad to leave out

Defo leave out ramsdale. Awful keeper

Ben White

Reece James

One of the attackers is only one left ...

But who? Saka can play so many positions but who does he knock out

Agree with Ramsdale
I'd take the other two over TAA and Mings without hesitation.

I don't think Saka being versatile is enough of a plus for him, because we already have options in the positions he plays. e.g. we have two other left backs already, and about 5 wingers, so he doesn't really give us anything we need.

I would cut Ramsdale, two centre backs (Godfrey & White if Maguire is fit), James, Saka, Watkins, and Phillips if Hendo is fit - if not then Lingard.

I'm staggered Wan-Bissaka isn't in the squad. He's the best defensive right back we have.
I'd also, maybe, have Bamford in too.

That’s spot on - Bellingham is excellent and he is doing it for his club and in the CL - i was amazed at how good he is , I would even start him alongside Henderson ( if he is fit )

Lingard should never go ahead of the likes of Grealish etc

Why not, Lingard has been a very effective player recently with end product, better than the foul-buying, fancy Dan.

The press seem to think TAA will be playing in midfield for the Euros. How very England to try and shoehorn players into the team instead of picking those who have earned their place.

Trippier is the form right back and should get the start. He’s been vital for Atletico and had a nice little break during the season.

Valmeria of Latvia, Maribor of Sweden and Honka of Finland are some of the clubs that Tottenham could face in the Europa Conference League.

If you've not heard of them before, they're a small team that play in North London.

More like courtesy of the 1980s, that joke is older than time.

spurs could be in a good position re managers, or choice of. Poch is said to be open for a return, Lowe of Germany is moving on, Conte at Inter is said to be going in a couple of days. The french guy ( Galtier) who won the league has left. Chuck in Martinez and Big Sam and Spurs Could be spoilt for choice.

Or .................................. how very 'press' to suggest that 'what they seem to think' is, indeed, fact.

Yeah it sounds like wild speculation to me. From what's been said so far it sounds more likely that he won't pick Trent at all.

Just dont need a pure defensive RB, its not how we play. I do agree hes the best defender, but playing with Wing backs there are better options - in abundance!

He could declare and go back to representing Congo if hes snubbed much longer though!

However the golden waist coated one picks his team. There is an Abundance of skilfull energy in that squad. The best players need putting in the best position. Let the kids off the leash to express themselves. To play four at the back with 2 holding midfielders would be nothing short of criminal. Something he has done before.

So what's it going to be when he plays 5 at the back with 2 holding midfielders?
