Imagine dying on the Luke Shaw hill.

Nice one Gareth.

Madness

But I’m sure he’ll make a difference when he is finally fit, mid July

Looks increasingly weird not taking one other left footed defender

Branthwaite and Mitchell should have gone.

Been saying it in the chatter thread. England have had four tournaments in a row now where the path to the final is handy. That they haven't taken advantage of that is due to more than having a duff manager...

But there's always this year. It's coming home.

At a certain point you have to look at your players, who are a reflection or their country's state of mind. Your arrogance is off the charts. There's a reason the US mens b'ball team f'ed up in 2004 when it wasn't even a contest in '92.

I'm not English. But I agree with you. Rio Ferdinand to Thomas Frank, a Dane, on the BBC sofa the other day: "No offence to Denmark, but..."

I mean, who do these people think they are?

Former WC winners 40 years ago.

Was listening to Rooney to Neville talk about match preparation when he was with England, Terry and Lampard, used have foot massages until they fell asleep, and then would be tucked into bed, they took there own person with them to do it. Not sure if that sort of thing still goes on, but same sort of poor abject performances for the most part.

I mean they also likely did this at Chelsea and had some amazing performances.

Also the missing Philips, yet persist with TAA, the least similar player Southgate could have chosen from a pool of English players.

Maybe that's why we cannot press and push up, no bedtime foot massages at all.

Branthwaite and Mitchell should have gone.

Mitchell, Lewis Hall, even Chilwell. He’s not had a great season but he’s still been better than Trippier who’s been awful. No excuse to not have a proper backup for Shaw in the squad, clueless management.
