So that's why Toney isn't in the squad on 18:32 - Nov 16 with 4347 views | Nthsuffolkblue | That was my first thought. Quickly followed by, "I presume that, if they had come to light after squad selection and before the tournament would he have been removed from the squad or would they have simply delayed bringing charges until after it?" |  |

It was surely known. Why else would Callum Wilson have been picked ahead of him? |  |

Yes, it was reported that he was under investigation for this a little over 10 days ago, but TalkSport accidentally slipped it into one of their hourly news slots about 10 days before that. I was cleaning the garage at the time and it caught my ear, but no mention was made of it in the next slot, so I assumed a mistake had been made! On Wilson, I find it very hard to enjoy his recent success, but he has looked decent and deserves his place in the squad - but I'd rather have Toney. |  |

Suspect the impending betting charge was known, but yes it is also feasible that Southgate just preferred someone else as 4th choice striker At least no one’s moaning because Danny Drinkwater isn’t in the squad this time [Post edited 17 Nov 2022 7:39]

I hope his celebration(s) the other day wasn't him sticking two fingers up at GS. If it was and he believes his own hype that much then he'll probably never make the squad. |  |

I have Kane Haaland and Jesus and it's not going great for me to be honest! |  | |  |

Personally I think Wilson is better than him. However, I would have brought Toney purely as a penalty taker instead of a Phillips, Gallagher (even Rashford) but its all personal choices. But yes if this was known (seems like it was) then Toney was ruled out before. |  | |  |

At falling over to try and win a penalty perhaps, but since VAR has become a thing it’s not quite as useful as it may have been previously |  |

All opinions I guess and maybe Southgate did fancy him more. Toney is the better goal scorer though and seeing as they will likely only be used for the final 10 mins of games when we need a goal I’d be surprised if Wilson is seen as more effective than Toney. Agree with your comment that we should have brought an extra attacker instead of one of the midfielders |  |

Wilson has 6 goals in 11 games this season, and scored 8 in 18 last - both with VAR. Toney has 10 in 14 following 12 in 33 last season. Across the two Wilson has a marginally better goal per game ratio Ignoring the betting charge I’d have probably gone with the upside of Toney as the younger, more in form option, and it may well be that Southgate would too as it’s inconceivable he wouldn’t have known about it (or had his hands tied). However there isn’t a lot in it and I have no idea why anyone gives a sh*t really given that Harry Kane will clearly be leading the line with Sterling and Rashford probably stepping in if he gets injured |  |
