Surprised there's not already a thread. I agree with most that it's a bit of a nonsense this time round with the timings, Qatar, etc, but trying to get myself in the zone... I look forward to some rose tinted selections! 1) What is your (not Southgate's) 26 man squad
DEF: Trippier, Trent AA, Walker, Stones, Dier, White, Ghehi, Shaw, Sessegnon. MID: Rice, Henderson, Bellingham, Grealish, Mount, Saka, Maddison, Foden, Eze. FOR: Kane, Sterling, Rashford, Tony, Abraham Notable absentees: Comments: 2) Best 11: -------------Pickford------------- 3) Results: Lacklustre but will grind out results to advance from an easy group. Lineker will be wetting his pants over 7 points. R2: England 2 - 1 Ecuador 4) Tip to go far: The overall performance will reflect the pre-tournament hype. Southgate sacked with no obvious replacement.

Is anybody really interested in it ? To me it’s just an unwanted interruption to the season….

I'm expecting Southgate to name at least one player who is currently injured possibly 2. It seems to be in the job description for England manager, take a player who is injured thus depriving a fit player of a place. Said player will then either break down or not be match fit and so wont do anything. See Keegan / Beckham / Robson etc. etc. The annoying thing is that this time it wont even be a so called talisman. We never learn.

Click-bait saying Guehi out of WC & that Walker & White are in . . . [Link] The Athletic backs this up & its looking like same old, same old for the 26 man squad . . . zzzzzzz

Of course I'll watch the World Cup but I won't be expecting much from England. We (or rather THEY) should make the quarter finals but then they'll make their exit and be home for Christmas along with the other turkeys!
