England World Cup Squad

[Paul]

Yep I get all that. But taking Hart as a penalty specialist could give a psychological advantage. Therefore it's worth it imho

If only Paul Jones wasn't Welsh ???

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Gomez (Joe, not the wank faux-blues merchants) out of the World Cup. Trippier went off injured last night too.

Looking unlikely that Neuer will be fit for Germany. I imagine they'll pick Ter Stegen as first choice, for comedy value they could go for the bizarrely highly-rated disaster zone Leno.

I went to see them at the weekend and they were fucking AWESOME!

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I'm sure they were.

 

[machin05]

Yeah, they were. It was a 20th anniversary tour, which made me feel suddenly old.

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

Bring it On is quality Will, don't mind him

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

What have I told you about encouraging him...

 

[machin05]

[Deleted Cyber]

Nice to see an increase in Giffage on here. Keep it up

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Squad to be announced on 16 May. Why we're doing it three weeks earlier than we need to, I don't know.

 

[machin05]

To remind people that there's actually a World Cup this summer.

 

[YoungWolf]

To be fair, I don't think it's that huge of an issue. There will be a standby list anyway.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

It's not really an issue, it's just a strange and pointless thing to do.

As was appointing Southgate TBF.

Rumours that Southgate is looking at Sessegnon for his squad of 30 for the friendlies... didn’t I read an article recently saying he wouldn’t consider/pick Coady while he’s in the Championship?

Yeah but Sess is the best player to ever play football ever. EVER!

 

[Tony Towner]

Sessegnon has been massively overhyped. He's played well for half a season in a position the mainstream media and I daresay Southgate don't think he plays in as per all the team of the season formations. He's spent a lot of time being in the the right place at the right time, which in itself is a skill, but his goal against us was indicative of his output this year. For his age he has supreme potential, but if he wasn't the age he is he wouldn't be spoken about for the World Cup and we should pick on where players are now not where they might be or have been.

 

[BillyDee]

Coady isn't in the Championship now though. Sessamanong still is...

 

[YoungWolf]

He hasn’t just played well for half a season though. He’s been excellent for two seasons now and effective too.

 

[Tony Towner]

He spent the first half of this season at left back and was poor, including at Molineux.
