    Definitely. Didn't know it was a laid down rule. Sounds bonkers doesn't it. 23 players. Pick who you want.

    Be good if that is agreed upon. 23 is quite a small squad size I feel. I know we always do it, and I guess other countries too, but I wish we wouldn't take 3 keepers to every tournament. I wonder how often anyone has ever had to use 3 keepers? 2 should be sufficient. 3 out of 23 sounds a bit...

    Yeah, just checked. It has to be cut to 23, which worries me a little, because isn't GS more likely to go with the experience of Henderson rather than the likes of Mainoo? More of a gamble to include wild cards and those of lesser experience. Not going to be many spare places to fill is there...

    Doesn't it have to be 23 for the tournament? Or have I got that wrong?

    He played very well on Tuesday.

    Rice is one of the first names on the team sheet these days isn't. Been so impressed with him for England. It has to be Bellingham and Rice, whatever. Others to fit in around those two

    I agree. Trippier's play is too telegraphed when he's at left back. You know exactly what he is going to do every time.

    I have never heard of that one either. Can't be right, can it?

    Oh, right. I do know him. I had no idea he was English though.

    To be quite honest, I have never heard of him. 😱 A quick Google is in order.

    Yeah, I understand that. I think Southgate may take him, if he can be available for games later on in the tournament. He is so much better than Chilwell.

    England v Belgium

    Yup, totally agree. It's actually a bit of a nonsense to say our back four is weak Walker is a great right back and Stones, an excellent player too and I really rate Shaw very highly. It's just that one problematic position of replacing Maguire.

    I know it's only been one game, but I was so impressed with Mainoo. He took the whole occasion in his stride and looked a complete natural. I would have no hesitation in starting him in the Euro's, if he continues that form in the pre tournament friendlies. Obviously praying that Shaw...
