Gareth Southgate revealed his full 33-man squad for Euro 2024 today. But what do you guys make of it?
Harry Kane, Jude Bellingham, Phil Foden, Bukayo Saka, Grealish, Eze, Bowen, Bellingham, Rice, Wharton, Mainoo, Trent Alexander- Arnold, Quansah and more feature!

Thanks so much for the content Joe. It is greatly appreciated. Thanks for everything you do ❤

[@RichardJuukovsky]

The fact is, England have the highest scoring winger in premier league history if you exclude penalties, the second highest scorer for England of the players today, the highest assist provider, the player who almost single handedly dragged England to their first final in over half a century, the most reliable England player in high stake competition games, and so clearly most dangerous attacker in English football today not in the squad let alone the team. The idea any team can succeed to win a competition without a player that can deliver so much reliably to their game and be so influential to a teams success whether the rest of the team do not perform so well or not is called wishful thinking. We've seen Southgate take risks in finals and failed at every turn. He is unable to make constructive risks and is strongest when he uses common sense. Common sense would tell you Jude Belligham has excelled partnering Vinicias Junior at Real Madrid winning the Spanish League and in the final of the Champions League which should be amazing for England as England have a similar player to Vinicias Junior in the name of Raheem Sterling in the England team meaning they can understand each other very quickly and form an equally powerful partnership for the England attack. This is common sense. But what does he do? He takes Sterling out of the team depriving England of that obvious lethal attacking partnership. Common sense would tell you that with England getting to a final with Sterling as the driving force giving defenders nightmares on one wing and Saka still developing on the other, when Saka finally develops as he has today and so much better than that final and able to give defenders nightmares like Sterling, England with these two wingers would be giving defenders sleepless nights on both wings and be even more lethal than when getting to that final, so you play them both again now as a bigger threat than before. This again is common sense. But no, Southgate has decided to not play Sterling and play a lesser threat that has achieved nothing, but some good games for an average club for one season and has no experience of high stakes competition, or an alternative that has played for England, but achieved nothing special when playing for England and is not even the first choice for his club team. It's astonishing stuff. As for Palmer, a player that has scored an average number of goals in open play scoring 10 penalties he will not take for England to push up his stats, but more importantly failed to make the Man City team and was then sold, because although he was known by Man City to score goals is too much of a defensive liability to have in a team that wants to win things or be a top team, why in the world would a manager with any sense ignore these facts and like a novice want to consider putting him in his team just because pundits, commentators and the media choose to ignore the obvious facts and claim the manager who sold him has made a mistake despite the fact this manager is winning everything under the sun. Palmer does not understand defense, does not participate in defensive responsibilities, does not know how to balance defensive and offensive responsibilities and has no interest in understanding or participating in defensive responsibilities at a time in football when all 11 players have offensive responsibilities and all 11 players have defensive responsibilities and the team least efficient at utilising all 11 players for these offensive and defensive objectives loses. That is modern football and what is understood by all the top teams in league and international football as necessary to win competitions or leagues. But Southgate obviously thinks he is the exception and wishful thinking will get him over the line. Without Raheem Sterling in the team, I predict England will be knocked out of the competition in the Quarter finals at these Euros as we saw proved when Sterling did not play in the last World Cup, mark my words, so I won't even bother watching the games managed by stupidity that makes no sense forced on the manager by pressure from the media. Wishful thinking gets you nowhere. Peace and love

"Pivot"

[@Ebamber3]

I wouldn't say so to be honest Trent offers a skill set very similar to what Rice does in that he's mainly a long passer of the ball, both have excellent technique in the pass and I'll give them that; but Mainoo offers something completely unique to this team, I'd say he's one of only a handful of players worldwide with the sort of press resistance he's got and the only one in England with that level of composure and dribbling ability who can play so deep - impossible to win the ball off him but he doesn't progress the ball as well as Trent I'd argue it really depends on what England needs in a given tactical battle

[@mattishidayeo]

I feel that England would actually be better off playing a back 3 for EURO 2024, considering the injuries to their best full back (mainly left back) candidates. My current thinking is to play in Alonso's 3-4-2-1 / 3-2-4-1, where one can play both Foden and Bellingham as CAM, and Rice given freedom to roam forward. GK: Pickford | Henderson | Trafford RCB: Walker | Konsa | Gomez CB: Stones | Maguire LCB: Branthwaite | Shaw | Trippier RCM: Trent | Gallagher LCM: Rice | Jones RW: Saka | Bowen RAM: Foden | Palmer LAM: Bellingham | Maddison LW: Gordon | Eze FW: Kane | Watkins

[@Ehwoke]

I think I agree with most of your picks with a few exceptions; with such a notable injury list at the back, you can't afford to be short of defenders this tournament. We've got a solid upfront with much less injuries, so I would drop an extra forward to take an extra defender. Unfortunately that would be Jarrod Bowen. Fantastic season in a often lackluster West Ham team, when you've got talent such as Saka and Palmer on the right, and Kane and Watkins down the middle, there just isn't the need for him. I would then add Dier to the squad. An experienced player who's revived his career at Bayern; reignited his passion for the game, if he was to be at the Euros he'll work like an absolute dog for us.

[@ronanparker8783]

Foden, Palmer and Saka have all been far better across the whole season and Gordon, Eze and Bowen have been excellent too, although Tomori should easily be making the squad over someone like Dunk.

I give southgate credit for this squad so far.

[@ricardogama170]

As a portuguese i would love to know what you guys really think should be your starting XI. To right back i love Trent but i understand that in most games Kyle Walker should play but what do you do with Trent then? I dont think Maguire is a great center back, Tomori should be there, but people in England always say Maguire has to play. But the biggest problem i think is knowing what to do in front. Rice and Bellingham have to play, but Rice is not really a 6 and Jude now has to play at 10. In the harder games who do you put at 6 or at 8 to balance it out Mainoo or Gallagher? Then you have Palmer, Foden and Jude that play their best at 10 but only one can play there. If Jude plays at 8 and Rice at 6 and Foden at 10 is it really balanced enough? If Jude is at 10 where do you put Foden and do you play Palmer? Foden on the left and Saka on the right is going to work?

It was never going to happen but I think Max Kilman as Wolves captain deserves a look in

[@tspcontent4630]

Not surprised they’ve missed out but Lewis hall or livramento would’ve been good full back depth

[@datedwizard989]

From this list the 7 I’m not taking are Trafford, Dunk, Guehi, Shaw, Grealish, Maddison & Toney. Not buying the whole one tournament too early thing for Quansah, why’s it too early for him but not Mainoo, Wharton, Branthwaite? They’re all in form & injury free, the same can not be said for the players I’d cut out.

[@joethomlinson_]

SHAW!? No left back in the squad 🤣🤣

[@psycho_menace7551]

@@joethomlinson_Gomez can play there and also trippier could aswell

[@aaronfrancis134]

Agree with every shout apart from Toney. His penalty taking is going to be the reason he makes it, even if he just comes on for a penalty in the later stages as that could be the difference. An extra midfielder will get dropped 💯 Quansah and Brainthwaite are englands future centre back pairing

[@mutts.nutts1]

Great and well deserved for Gordon, however no Tino but Quansah makes it? Tino can cover both sides amd i know hes a couple weeks off full fitness but couldve been a big cover player if we progress Eze is an immense player, makes me wonder if Southate tried to call Olise and he declined as was hoping for France though would have loved to see him go Very good to see progression and Southgate look to future for once though and overall positive moves particular with out attackers 🔥🔥

[@joethomlinson_]

Tino has come into form late this season - imagine that's the main reason.

[@joepublicnpc8998]

Wow... I'm so worried that Maguire won't make it 🤣

[@WolfStatMedia]

A good initial squad with the youngsters that deserve to get a call up! although would have been good to see Harvey Elliott! the players i wouldn't be taking to for the 26 man squad: James Trafford Jarrel Quansah Lewis Dunk Luke Shaw Curtis Jones Ivan Toney Jack Grealish This is based on youth, playing time and injuries!

[@jonathanhalliday718]

Butland should be going over either Trafford or Henderson. He has had a great season and would be an experienced safe pair of hands as a back up. Guehi, Shaw (likely wont be fit), Maddison, Toney, Trafford, Dunk will likely be cut. The final spot is difficult but I imagine it will be a toss up between Jones and Wharton. Bowen has had a great season and can play a few roles and Grealish is great at winning free kicks. I would actually take Quansah as I think he will be the next player to play alongside Stones and could play in a game or two in the group stages.

[@jonnyg03]

I think Trafford, Dunk, Quansah, Wharton, Maddison, Bowen (very harsh ik) and Toney miss out

[@ryzmckenzie]

Eze really deserves to go over Maddison for sure. I agree with the 7 picked here

[@christianmuchui495]

I know Toney hasn't really been up to it but i don't think he's one to drop I just find him more Kane(esq). He gives off Rashford vibes in that he hasn't been good but when he's fire he is fire. (Also has the best penalty conversation rate in the squad) If im resting Kane I'd rather have Toney than Watkins lead the line

[@danbruce2470]

The misconception that Pickford is much better for England than Everton needs to stop. He’s unbelievable for both

[@CraigDown]

I like yiur picks

[@wardje5195]

You need Chilwell as a left back

[@huzaifahshoeb555]

@Joe Thomlinson what about jadon Sancho he's been a MONSTER in the champions league

[@swallowspirit]

Can't see any point in taking Shaw. He'll likely miss the cut which leaves us with no designated left back. We need to ditch fullbacks and go for a 3-2-4-1 system utilising our strengths, which are in attack. Here's my team in that formation: Pickford, Stones, Maguire, Branthwaite, Rice, Mainoo, Saka, Bellingham, Foden, Palmer, Kane. I picked Maguire because Southgate tends to never leave him out. I'd have preferred Ben White in there but that's not happening.

[@cfcsakeen]

Grealish, Quansah, Trafford, Wharton, guehi, Shaw (hasn’t played forever) , James Maddison

[@joethomlinson_]

My 7 will be 1.Ramsdale ( No game time) 2.Dunk (just young players offer more) 3.Guehi (injury) 4.Shaw(injury) 5.Maddison(form) 6.Toney(not good enough the form) 7.Gordon (experience ) Grealish has more experience and you have to take him since you didn't take rashford or sterling+i would leave out konsa as the seventh one but cuz of defensive injuries( if there was no injuries i would have kept gordon who i really want to keep)i cant and finally tyrik Mitchell will be a good addition to the team .

[@TheSarinaide]

Gordon not experienced but you have Konsa, Wharton, Eze, Jones, Mainoo and Palmer in there? Gordon helped the U21s win the world cup last summer some of the selections were there.

[@user-zn7ph1mi1x]

[@user-zn7ph1mi1x]

Who will you keep?? I am keeping Konsa,Quansah cuz of the defensive injury issues but the selection will be done after the friendlies and mostly this guy's who are inexperienced will get game time other than secured position players
