HongKongVillan Posted May 21 VT Supporter Share Posted May 21 (edited) If Hendo's "mythical" pressence is a factor then I wont be surprise and can say much if he is still being selected. Rashford on the other hand though - there really is no excuse or reason why he should be anywhere near that squad. and also I am anticipating a reaction when Dier is officially selected for this Edited May 21 by HongKongVillan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If England's centre-backs were being selected on form, it would probably be any two from him, Guehi, Branthwaite and Tarkowski. If it were any other english defender playing in Champions League semi-finals, keeping Dayot Upameacano and Kim Min-Jae out of the team then there would be no question of him being called up.

Tripper at LB and Gomez are pretty uninspiring, Colwill has just come back from injury himself and is probably more of a CB. Livramento, Mitchell, Hall? Who would you take? For me, you absolutely take Tyrick Mitchell. I'd probably even start him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avfc96 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 GK: Ramsdale, Henderson, Pickford DF: Walker, Alexander-Arnold, Konsa, Stones, Branthwaite, Tomori, ,Guehi, Colwill, Mitchell MF: Rice, Mainoo, Bellingham, Maddison, Eze, Ward-Prowse, Jones FW: Kane, Watkins, Bowen, Saka, Foden, Palmer, Gordon But obviously, the likes of Maguire, Phillips, Mount, Henderson, Rashford etc will be included.

VillaAlex Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 I don't mind too much if Maguire is in, even if he's crap and plays crap for England at times he's at least played games and performed on the odd occasion. I'd not pick him but there is some sense. Players who shouldn't be anywhere near though are Rashford, Henderson, Phillips and Mount. We have so many players on the top of their games at the moment in positions they play in as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Mainoo will start alongside Rice. Not sure what the back up to that will be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's pretty close to what I'd have said the squad should be as well. I think it's hard to justify taking Maddison based on three good months last Autumn and Eze should be in to replace him (rather than as well as him). I'd have Maguire in for Tomori. Obviously the succession planning should have been done at the end of the last tournament and the last two years would have been assimilating someone like Colwill or Tomori instead of Maguire. But as it wasn't, he's still probably worth a place in the squad. On performances this season / form, I'd have Gallagher over Ward-Prowse and if we're taking an uncapped midfielder I think England could do with what Wharton does more than what Jones does. As a Villa fan I'd hope Konsa goes. Looking at how they've performed over the last few months though, Gomez is probably the better option for the auxiliary defender. Given he can fill in at left-back as well as right-back. I think that's probably the correct front seven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colwill would start ahead of Mitchell, he was playing LB every week for Chelsea in first half of the season. Shaw simply isn't fit and Chilwell was useless in the March games so that's England's problem position for this tournament. Think Trippier will probably have to play there with his experience.

VillaAlex Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Wharton and Eze in provisional with Branthwaite and Curtis Jones. No Henderson, Chilwell or Sterling. That's good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
