Surprising decisions from Southgate but has decided to actually pick players on form apparently.

Looking at some of the rumours of players in the squad then Branthwaite could end up in final 26 here.

Goalkeepers: Dean Henderson, Jordan Pickford, Aaron Ramsdale, James Trafford.

Defenders: Jarrad Branthwaite, Lewis Dunk, Joe Gomez, Marc Guéhi, Ezri Konsa, Harry Maguire, Jarell Quansah, Luke Shaw, John Stones, Kieran Trippier, Kyle Walker.

Midfielders: Trent Alexander-Arnold, Conor Gallagher, Curtis Jones, Kobbie Mainoo, Declan Rice, Adam Wharton.

Forwards: Jude Bellingham, Jarrod Bowen, Eberechi Eze, Phil Foden, Jack Grealish, Anthony Gordon, Harry Kane, James Maddison, Cole Palmer, Bukayo Saka, Ivan Toney, Ollie Watkins.

So 7 of these won't be going.

Don’t have any issues with that.

Interesting that TAA is listed as a midfielder.

Rrobably:

Trafford
Quansah
Branthwaite
Jones
Wharton
Eze
Bowen

Although Eze could oust someone like Maddison out of the team. Similar for Branthwaite with Dunk/Guehi and maybe Konsa/Gomez but they play fullback as well which will probably be a factor.

So surprisingly good calls to drop players

Marred by some surprisingly shit call-ups

Still only picked one left back, and the broken one at that

I don’t want to see Pep Southgate playing two centre backs at full back and a full back in midfield :nope:

Overall I like the squad, but I do find it extremely worrying he's taking only one LB and that's Shaw who's been injured.

Trippier can play there but it's not ideal and more worryingly he's been a bit shit this season.

Feels like he's taken a gamble there, but maybe he's looking at Branthwaite as an emergency LB if required which may give Jarrod more chance of making the final squad.

Think we've got a great attacking set of players on there but you can see where our deficiencies lie and why we might struggle against the very best teams.

Not sure what English left backs there are? Chilwell barely plays with injury.

Robinson might be regretting his USA choice now days.

Think he will take Joe Gomez over Jarrad as he can cover LB too.

Similar to the Ben Godfrey call up , think he will miss out

Not sure how Dunk gets in , has he not watched Brighton this season. rather have Eric Dier who Southgate tells us was playing well, even Tarks has been more reliable than Dunk.
