Goalkeepers:
Dean Henderson (Crystal Palace), Jordan Pickford (Everton), Aaron Ramsdale (Southampton), James Trafford (Burnley)

Defenders: Dan Burn (Newcastle United), Levi Colwill (Chelsea), Marc Guehi (Crystal Palace), Reece James (Chelsea), Ezri Konsa (Aston Villa), Myles Lewis-Skelly (Arsenal), Tino Livramento (Newcastle United), Jarell Quansah (Liverpool), Kyle Walker (AC Milan, loan from Manchester City)

Midfielders: Jude Bellingham (Real Madrid), Eberechi Eze (Crystal Palace), Jordan Henderson (Ajax), Curtis Jones (Liverpool), Cole Palmer (Chelsea), Declan Rice (Arsenal), Morgan Rogers (Aston Villa)

Forwards: Jarrod Bowen (West Ham United), Phil Foden (Manchester City), Anthony Gordon (Newcastle United), Harry Kane (Bayern Munich), Marcus Rashford (Aston Villa, loan from Manchester United), Dominic Solanke (Tottenham Hotspur)


Some very strange inclusions there, midfield looks decent but defenders and forwards look really weak. MLS has been decent but it's odd that he's been picked and Nwaneri hasn't been especially considering the form of some of the forwards.

Imagine picking henderson over conor gallagher

Wheres gibbs white?

Has tuchel even watched any football lately


People were saying it's fine he doesn't go to matches because he watches so many games at home.

Turns out he watches zero football. :cry:
 
Henderson !!? Did Southgate leave a begging note on Tuchels desk ?

Wasting another slot with Walker as well. would have thought he would want to have more fresh blood for a new start than falling back on these old guys - albeit I doubt they will get much of a look in.

So the two top English scorers in the PL (Strikers) haven't made it and no Gibbs White and why the hell has he picked Walker and Henderson

Agreed that some of the Forest lads deserve a shout. Connor G too. Foden does nowt for City or England to get selected.

Walker is finished.
 
Surprised Spence didn't make it too. Can cover both fullback or WB positions and looked one of Spurs better players this season
 
Didn’t expect a squad building towards the future, given the short term win the WC or GTFO nature of his contract so accept he’s picking players for the here and now rather than trying to build some sort of legacy, I get that, but dear me that squad has got to deflate a lot of promising players. Henderson and Walker :rolleyes:

I like Burns inclusion, he’s been pretty solid, not international class but doubt he’ll get any minutes anyway. I love his story, grew up very close to where I did. Not the nicest part of the world, played at non league Darlington an hour down the road. Worked hard, signed for his boyhood club, captained them, scored at St James park against PSG in the champions league and gets a call up for England. If I wasn’t such a tough northerner I’d likely have a tear in my eye.
