I don’t understand how Stones (who hasn’t played much this season) and Spence who is playing for a team with the one of the worst defence in the PL have been picked and why Gibbs-White, who has been in brilliant form hasn’t made it into the squad. |  |

That midfield worries me.
Also, if we're taking Henderson for Experience, why not just take Geoff Hurst. |
That's being ridiculous, Hurst would be rubbish in the holding midfielder role. | | | |

I'd have:
Butland or Pope instead of Trafford (sorry, but if you're not starting games for your club you shouldn't be playing for your country)
Alexander-Arnold for Toney (if you want to take a third striker then Calvert-Lewin or Welbeck will be better suited anyway)
Maguire for Stones (see Trafford)
Hall for Spence (no idea what Tuchel's adoration for Spence is about)
Shaw for Burn (better cover at LB if we need to move O'Reilly into midfield)
Wharton for Henderson (think Wharton would offer us more at this stage)
Bowen for Madueke (think Bowen has more experience, plus Madueke blows hot and cold)
Gibbs-White for Eze (tough one this, but considering Gibbs-White's performances this season he deserves a place, and I think he is more consistent than Eze) |
Absolutely this 💯 |  |

How about Nicky Butt | |

Not sure the relevance of the fees paid for the players. How do they compare to those who are going anyway? Surely, the only thing that shows is that standard Premier League players cost £20-50M now doesn't it?
I would imagine one of the reasons that Toney is included is his penalty taking. |  |

Who cares? The World Cup is a circus and nobody should encourage it. |  |

Palmer hasn't been brilliant since his comeback and isn't ready.
Foden has been given so many chances but hasn't stepped up.
It was Maguire or Stones. For me Maguire edges it but I'm not bothered either way.
The last England manager to be as brave as Tuchel was the late great Sir Bobby Robson so it's a thumbs up from me. Can I get excited about England though? I always do a bit nearer the time but they're very frustrating at times. Come on England. | | | |

Yeah agree with this.
I’d have Wharton for Mainoo and Bowen for Madueke but the fuss about Foden and Palmer is a fuss about nothing. |  |

Foden has been pretty useless all season, bit surprised with Palmer as I think he is very good.
Maguire has been a legend at Man Utd and been pretty useful for England. But with many of the Countries we come up against they will have very mobile forwards and although Maguire uses his technical ability he may be now a bit slow.
We will no doubt have our hopes on the up and then dashed as usual. | | | |

Understandable from Tuchels point of view for two of them at least. When not injured, Palmer's done little this season apart from about one match. Foden has been in and out of the City side. Maguire I might have taken personally, he's seldom let England down and the risk taken with Stones who when 100% fit ( not often! ) is certainly a better player is well known. |  | | |

Hear me out. We have a plan this time. In the Euros we were literally experimenting going into the tournament. I think Rice had about 4 different partners.
I don’t agree with no MGW, Lewis Hall, Wharton or Maguire with what was picked ahead of them. I’d have also taken Palmer even in dodgy form.
BUT
He has picked runners behind Kane, which makes sense, rather than say planting Foden left 10. I think it brings Kane more into games. He’s gone for more of the McKenna like for like approach in the squad. We won’t have much of a plan B though or many moments players on the bench so let’s see what happens. This lot might have a chance if they can handle the heat and stay fit. [Post edited 23 May 23:39]

Wasn’t really the fees I posted it for (the graphics with names didn’t want to share on here)
More that there is a pretty strong first eleven not going.
That said I would only be mindful of dropping Henderson from those selected. Think it’s been harsh on Gibbs-White or Bowen |  |

It works as it's what Maguire said to Greek police when they arrested him! | | | |

But whoever did the graphic felt it was important or why did they add them?
Of course there are some good English players not going. There are some good English who are going too. There probably isn't much between some of those in each category too. Is that a surprise to anyone?
I wonder how many of those not going (or those going ahead of them) would get into the top World Cup squads. And this is a lot of England's problem. We have 2-3 world class players and then a lot of others who play at a multitude of clubs. Other countries have the benefit of a lot of their lesser players playing together in domestic football. | |
