You conveniently miss the fact most people have issues with him because he doesn't play.

If the managers of those teams don’t have any qualms about adding him to their squad then I don’t see why England’s should freeze him out, especially when we have a need at that position.

Historically this hasn’t been the case.

And? we are talking about now.

It is perfectly reasonable to think that while a player might be good enough for x team he isn't good enough for England.

Longstaff plays for one of England's top teams but is not of the standard of the current England team.

Pep with a special on the been, trying to soften the clamour for sanctions in the future of MC?

Because they were only rumours.

Again, it's that he hasn't played for his club.

We are more short on top class centre backs but doesn’t stop Southgate playing 3 at the back. We aren’t short on good options in defensive midfield.

When was the last time England played 3ATB? Who are the good options in defensive midfield?

Wow. One place further up the "longest serving manager" table for Robins in the summer then.

Very poor tonight although Liverpool are flying.

Could have been interesting if VAR had actually given that stonewall penalty on Nkunku though.

It will end up being one of those ridiculous seasons City and Liverpool both end up on 90 odd points again and one of them ends up missing out

City still having to go to Anfield changes the dynamic ever so slightly this time though

Kalvin Phillips just gifted Bournemouth a goal about 3 minutes into his West Ham debut.

Serves them right for giving a defensive midfielder the No.11 shirt.

Wolves are a hard team to beat at home, whilst United’s away form is piss poor and Onana is back in goal. Should make for an entertaining game.

How has Semenyo not scored that, great save but keeper shouldn’t stand a chance there

Man Utd 3-2 up about 4 minutes stoppage time left .They sent their big men up for a corner (why?) got caught on the break.They scored to make it 4-3 but were they lucky.
