Out of curiosity did welbeck return from international football as I can remember he was a bit like crouch in terms of performances really well for England and would still be valuable back up option for us in attack given that toney has gone to Saudi.

How did Gomes play?
Lewis Hall and Taylor Harwood-Bellis selected for the first time.

It's worse for Chelsea, there are 5 players in the squad from our academy that we let go.
When Mainoo withdrew last time it was the first squad since 1976 to not feature a United player.Zero Man Utd player in England squad

Apart from Mainoo who is injured.. is anyone even good enough to be in the squad?
I am curious to know which 5? At the very least, it proves that Chelsea has a great academy!
Shaw
Guehi, Hall, Gallagher, Rice and Solanke.
It will be 6 when Mount get back to England squad
I mean, Tuchel did love the guy!
True, he will probably be fit for those games
A first ?Zero Man Utd player in England squad
However, when fit Mainoo and Shaw should be in the squad.
Outside chance Mount, Rashford and Maguire
You're right, but still 2 of ours. I expect it'll be 3 eventually if Garner can get back to playing weekly as CM for Everton
Angel Gomes counts though right?
Saka, Rice, Palmer and Colwill have all withdrawn from the squad.
Looks like a lot of fringe players will get a run out.
Honestly who gives a feck about internationals
Is Carsley still in charge for these or has the thread title just not been updated?
I don't understand why Grealish was picked in the first place.
He is - not sure why but he's doing this camp with Tuchel officially starting in the new year.
Christ at this rate a Man United player might get called up
Probably dip into the Championship instead.
Kane whinging "England comes first before clubs".
I'm not sure other players see it like that, especially when a lot of them are not guaranteed a start

Remember both Henderson and Gomes are from the United academy.
What’s the latest squad liking like with all these withdrawals then?
I would wager that most players probably care about their country more than their club on an emotional level, since it’s your home vs your job. That’s on an emotional level, not a practical one when they consider the prospect of winning something with their club versus these international matches that don’t count for anything anyway. These are random matches in the middle of the season when the players might be more focused on trying to win stuff with their club. The vast majority of players pulling out are ones that know they will be in the picture whenever a tournament rolls around, whether they play these matches or not. It would be very different if this was a major tournament.
Kane is something of a unique case because the only thing he really has going for him are his individual scoring records so obviously he will want to play as many of these matches as he can and have a good supporting cast so he can have his fill.
Harwood-Bellis is engaged to Roy Keane's daughter!
Kane can feck off, and so can the Mickey Mouse Nations League. I dont know if there are actually more international breaks these days but it certainly feels that way. Maybe it’s just because I don’t give a feck about international football outside of major tournaments.
Kane reportedly injured ahead of tonight’s game. He might have waited before his needles jibes about the fitness of other players.
How many Manchester United fans are even English? Of course they don't give a shit about England, Harry!
Yeah it's fecking absurd that we've already had two international breaks 3 months into the season right after the Euros.
Just another money making exercise . No wonder the players don't give a sh!t
Balls of steel in fairness to the lad. Imagine making that call to ask for her hand?!
Imagine not making it though…
Do people still do this?
Not as much anymore.
