I'm sorry but that is absolutely hilarious
Pleased for Johnstone but lack of Pope is baffling when Ramsdale isn’t playing regularly.
No Palmer, but you know what? I am not gonna complain about it.
Is Palmer really playing that well? All the online hype around his recent stats is completely ignoring all his Chelsea goals have come from penalties.
Absolutely scandalous squad. Wilson went off injured!
Fingers crossed this means he's fine and Howe was just playing some mind games.
30 million able bodied adult males to chose from and Henderson is still in the squad. SMH.
No Reece James god bless
No Anthony Gordon seems really harsh and I'm not even a Newcastle fan.
Usually, I'd be with you, but this time I'm thrilled. He desperately needs a break, looked wrecked against Dortmund.
Glad he's getting rest tbh, he's looked dead on his feet the last couple games. If he keeps playing this well, his time will come
Philips and Henderson ffs man hahah
Apart from JWP, there aren't really many other options. In my opinion, Gallagher isn't up to it either.
In reality, in the Euros we will play with Rice, Bellingham and one other so won't be too bad.
If you’re Anthony Gordon, Cole Palmer, James Ward Prowse and Sean Longstaff, you must be thinking "what the fuck do I have to do to get in this squad?"
May I be the first to BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO for Henderson?
I'd be surprised if anyone new comes into the squad for the euros. I can only see James, Shaw and Chilwell being included. Maybe Sterling if Rashford form persists.
I'd be livid if I was JWP or Gordon
Maguire Phillips and Henderson 😴😴
You can just copy-paste your rants from October lads, no changes
You'll need to CTRL F Maguire and replace it with Rashford though given their respective forms... funny how things change in football.
While the rest will do them a world of good so in a sense I'm relieved. But Longstaff, Willock & Gordon have been robbed by pensioners in Saudi & bench warmers ffs.
Jude has a dislocates shoulder leave him alone waistcoat man, you already qualified
Curtis, Gomes,Gordon and Gibbs-white were all so good in the u21s euros and now they are not eligible for the youth teams. Isn't it sensible to give any of them a callup atleast against malta or north macedonia rather than calling up players with no gametime? Also Gordon is performing way better than rashford.
Jones is out injured until after the break anyway
There's a theory Southgate wants to win EURO 2024 and then quit on a high so isn't doing any groundwork for beyond that.
But even if that was true, there are some older selections in the squad who aren't better than the younger players coming through in the here and now.
I am outraged that [Insert name] wasn't included, he has been so good recently for [Insert midtable club]!
It's such a myth that Southgate doesn't like calling up mid table players. Look how many Chelsea and Manchester United players are in the squad.
Tbf until recently Lewis Dunk and Brighton could have filled those gaps. I think his performances have justified that reaction.
Feel like Southgate keeps including Henderson just to spite everyone who talks shit about him and says we need a new manager, because he’s definitely not doing it for footballing reasons.
Who does he replace?
Saka is Saka and Bowen is 4th highest scorer in the league this season
Would have preferred some variety with no internationals for four months after this. Maybe the inclusion of Gordon and Palmer ahead of next summer. Still think Henderson's repeated selection is a disgrace.
If you’re gonna play some who usually don’t get a chance can you at least mix it up with some of the usual starters.
Throwing 11 players in who’ve never played together isn’t really a fair representation of what they potentially could offer
Zero left backs, incredible
Hope fans keep booing Henderson
Seeing as we've already qualified I think this would've been a good time to call up Ezri Konsa.
Who knows what the injury situation could be by next summer and it'd be a benefit to have a bit of experience, even if it's just training with the squad.
Southgate is so unimaginative omydaysssss
Henderson is in, baffling. Phillips is in, slightly less baffling but still odd. Dunk keeps his spot, all is right with the world.
Doubt he'll play a weakened side for these with wanting to finish in the top seeds for pot 1 of the Euro 24 draw.
why does Pope never get called up anymore?
Praying that Trippier and Wilson play zero minutes. Both have been run into the ground the last few months, and need a break.
Can’t imagine being English and seeing Henderson as a legit regular call up. I know we called up Krychowiak from the same shithole, but we have 3 straight thinking midfielders at best. Having England’s talent pool and going for the captain of Al Ettifaq is just pathetic.
There’s zero incentive to get in form for Southgate world. I’m starting to think he doesn’t even watch games.
Pleased for Johnstone but lack of Pope is baffling when Ramsdale isn’t playing regularly.
I don’t even want Raheem Sitting in the squad because I think we have better alternatives in his position with the likes of Saka, Foden, Rashford & Grealish but I feel so bad for him. Kalvin Phillips & Harry Maguire still get picked for England even though their club form has been terrible or non existent for the last 2 years and the angle Southgate fans are using and I assume is Southgate’s thinking aswell is that they are his loyal soldiers, who’s done very well for him in the past and since the Euros is likely to be his last tournament, he wants to one last dance with his crew. The problem is that Sterling has been England’s best player for his entire tenure aside from Harry Kane and we all know how he powered England through the group stage at Euro 2020. How does he not get credit in the bank and get viewed by Southgate as one of his loyal soldiers when Kalvin Phillips and Harry Maguire get selected even though they barely play and are deemed surplus to requirements at club level ????
