@LEWIS540 Whats your thoughts on the England squad?
I'd have taken McCarthy ahead of Butland. Almost tempted to take Heaton over Pickford too.
Bertrand deserved to go ahead of Rose, who has hardly played this season. Maguire has good feet & is a great passer from out the back but he is far too slow for International football. I'd have taken Lascelles ahead of him. Cahill is slow too but it looks like Southgate is playing a 3 atb low block & as he showed yesterday that suits him well.
Shelvey can influence 2 phases of play so should've gotten the nod ahead of Delph. With Ash & Trippier in squad it kinda makes Delph's versatility upside redundant.
Seems Gareth knows the squads limitations & is focusing on building a side that is tough to beat. A smart play for the cup tournament format.
Pace on the bench a must.
Shame Winks isnt back from injury though. Lingard & RBL might be our weakest links.
