interesting squad

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Has he just listed all of the English players in the PL? Did no one tell him just to pick a few?

 

[irip]

I presume that the World Cup squad will come from those players (not including injured players).

Looks like Trent is out of the reckoning

 

[Lucifer MorningStar]

A 35 year old uncapped keeper - good to see we are looking to the future and developing players.

I’m more happy he’s picking players for now and is summer rather than caring or worrying about beyond the next tournament

 

[Orikoru]

Trent still doesn't get in a 35-man squad. He must be really rubbish.

Jason Steele? I assume that is a bit of a specialist position. 4th choice goalkeeper not expected to get any game time, so presumably that is a bit of a specialist pick. He has been described as a "training goalkeeper"

Apart from the 5 who play outside of the PL?

Whatever one of those is

Why ruin the gag, come on..............

Last kid standing. Stick them between the jumpers and pelt balls at them as hard as possible.

Scott Carson?

 

[PaulMdj]

Sadly, due to its location and the orange baffoon, I’ve never been less interested in a World Cup in my life.

Fingers crossed it’ll change once it kicks off.

Scott Carson?

The most decorated goalkeeper in Englands history

 

[Orikoru]

Plus the stupid bloating of the competition to 48 teams. Daft.

I’m with you I have absolutely no interest in it this year and couldn’t care less if we didn’t even go.

Depending on how things go over the next few months, I think it would be more entertaining if many countries pulled out of going.

Sadly, for England, they have one of their better generation of players, so they won't go often go into a World Cup with as good odds. And once Kane retires, I think that will be a huge blow for England.

Mind you, if many countries pull out, but the ones that remain are USA, Canada, Mexico, Cape Verde, Curacao, Haiti, New Zealand, Qatar, Scotland and Uzbekistan, then I fancy England getting to the final for sure. Then knowing them, losing to Scotland in the final.
