David Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Let's see what your England squad would look like going into the Euros. Pickford, Pope, Henderson, Shaw, Chillwell, Saka, Alexander-Arnold, James, Maguire, Stones, Tomori, Mount, Foden, Rice, Henderson, Sterling, Sancho, Rashford, Lingard, Kane, Calvert-Lewin, Watkins, Greenwood No Grealish? That's right. I'm sorry but until he starts pulling his socks up and stops wearing 5 year olds shin pads I just can't.

Van der MoodHoover Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Southgate loves walker so he can switch between back 3 and 4. Plus at least 2 dms in every 11 he picks. Phillips, walker in Saka Watkins out. Even then it's a bit racy for a Southgate squad and he might find another dm or 2.

Anag Ram Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Pickford, Pope, Henderson, Shaw, Chilwell, Saka, Alexander-Arnold, James, Maguire, Stones, Coady, Mount, Foden, Rice, Phillips, Sterling, Grealish, Rashford, Lingard, Kane, Calvert-Lewin, Watkins, Ings. For whatever reason, Southgate seems to like playing two defensive midfield players, even though we have some of the best attacking midfield players in the world. So Phillips will be in. Ings and Grealish if fit have to be in the squad. Grealish should start. Grealish, Sterling and Kane would terrorise any defence. Mount, Foden and Rice may not be the best defensive combination but would feed the front three the service they would thrive off. Main worry is the keeper. We seem to have a bunch that goes to pieces under pressure. I think Saka at right back might also be a revelation. Let’s make other countries worry about us for a change rather than trying to counteract them.

BIllyD Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Greenwood, Tomori, Watkins, Trent out. Grealish, Hudson-odi, Walker and Maddison if fit in.

Tomori is a pipe dream to be honest, no chance he will go, we do have a lack centre back depth to call upon though whilst plenty of full back options. Problem with our academy as well, we can produce the full backs, but who was the last centre back to come through?

hintonsboots Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 If Grealish is selected, you would need Ward-Prowse for the 106 free kicks per game. Link to comment https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/37130-your-england-23-man-squad-for-the-euros/#findComment-2090641 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost of Clough Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I'd only pick those who are playing regularly - the likes of Dean Henderson miss out.

It's not just this country, whereas players in the wider areas develop and play much more football at a younger age.

Carl Sagan Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I don't really follow Premier League football enough to give a full squad. My observations are: Grealish has to play. Sterling has to play. Walker is always an accident waiting to happen. Watching him the other night, with England needing to win and leading by one goal in injury time, he rushed to take a mad throw to his goalkeeper to put us under pressure and almost concede he equalizer. Time and time again he does mad things. Shouldn't be anywhere near the squad. If Vardy can be persuaded out of retirement he has to play. This is professional sport and winning supersedes everything. Mount has really been impressing me. Having seen Lingard as by far the worst player in a Derby team in his day I have always had my doubts. I would not take him. Lightweight, random and inconsequential. We seem weak in goal. Great to see Shaw having a resurgence at left back. Him and Chilwell are very good options. I have been thrilled to see Stones resurgence this season, and am hopeful he has got his mistake out of the way. I think Barnes and Maddison should be in the squad. Don't see the point of the Leeds midfielder who's recently come in *can't remember his name). We have a strong chance.

Van der MoodHoover Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Southgate is quite cautious and also loyal. Hence the rehabilitation of Lingard. I almost expect to see a return of some of the class of 2018 as being tried and tested in tournament play. One more outing for Dier, Deli Alli, Trippier..... ?
