I don't trust you, you thought Lampard was great
Maybe he can spend the summer either getting another club or getting his head together and come back ready and fully focused. Might be a good wakeup call for him.He can't have any complaints
They have some cracking players, it is just using them correctly to get the best out of them.Has England ever looked better on paper?
Bellingham, Foden, Saka, Palmer to support Kane.
Woah.

2pm.What time is the squad announced? I don’t like this stuff with a new player leaked every hour. Just give me the final squad to review at once.
And Grealish definitely shouldn’t be in the squad.

How's Bellingham form been lately? In the last rounds of CL I wasn't at all impressed.
Seems like Southgate is actually picking players on merit rather than his usual favourites.

Depends on which clubs have English goalkeepers, the top clubs don't.Not entirely, James Trafford is in the squad and possibly Ramsdale.

Can’t complain on Rashford but it’s hilarious when 3 goal Jack Grealish then gets picked

I just remembered how rattled everyone got the last euros about fans singing it's coming home

None of our goalies play for the top clubs, Henderson is at Palace, Pickford at Everton, surprised at Stafford as he ended up dropped. It is more as you say that the first two are playing regularly. I feel sorry for Butland as he has done well at Rangers.Burnley isn't a top club - Pickford, Henderson and then Butland from Rangers would be fine and all playing for their clubs regularly.
Rashford has never been his favourite though?
He doesn't really have many options for goalkeepers though.
Is Rico Lewis being included? He'd be a surprise omission given the lack of decent options at LB and he has played for England this season. More of a sub for Man. City of course but that's never stopped Southgate before.

Pickford, Henderson and Butland.
Yeah, although I sort of understand Trafford over Butland as Trafford is a future England keeper, whereas Butland's time has gone. Henderson over Ramsdale would be fair though.
Kroos retiring will have Jude play as a more conventional CM ?I think he’s a bit of an overrated footballer personally. With Mbappé coming in will be interesting to see how he does in the actual midfield at Real. I think he’s good, but I don’t think he’s this best player in the world contender at all.
Perhaps it’s largely stylistic for me, but as an actual midfielder, he can’t see Pedri for me.
Butland is 31, his time has hardly gone and Trafford has been shocking this season. There are no signs he is a future England keeper at all. I'm just bemused by the selections.

Nonsense. He's (Butland) never going to be a starter for England. Trafford won the tournament with the lower age groups and definitely has potential to be in contention for future tournaments and being the starter once Pickford retires.
it’s more about having someone playing regularly who can step in if needed. Pickford will be the number one.He's a year older than Pickford. Butland looked promising in 2015, but he's never really fulfilled his potential. He couldn't get in the team at Palace and has had to drop down to Scottish Premier League level to start playing regularly again. He's never going to be Englands number one!
