Our CM options are terrible tbh! And I wasn’t saying Shelvey or Wilshere should of been selected.
Its not terrible as its good enough to see us out of the group and I'd rather Hendo and Dier protecting that shoddy back four against the big hitters. If anything our CB options are terrible as not one of them is comfortable with being asked to defend.

Be lucky to scrape out the group with that CM and Back lot.
 
Its 343, replicating Chelsea/spurs. CM is fine for what's needed for the system, two solid workhorses in Hendo/Dier, with match winners up front. Back 3 all comfortable on the ball, wing backs like bombing forward, honestly don't think it's as bad as some think. He's picked what fits the system he wants to play, have to applaud him for that.

Easy option would be to pick Lallana, Wilshere etc. because of their unique skill sets.

Oh, my bad. I thought England played 5-3-2/3-5-2
 
They were never ever winning the world cup. Doesn't matter who he selected.
 
Happy that Loftus-Cheek made the squad. Hard to believe that Chelsea cannot make good use of him. Playing for Palace he looked quite the talent although he tended to fade heavily during the final third of the match and quit his defensive duties. When I watched him in person vs Leicester, he looked absolutely dominating in midfield.

Was the one I was looking forward to seeing in the squad!
 
Harry Kane, some time footballer, full-time Olympic standard diver, ALL about 'ME' and NOT the 'team', without a leadership bone in his body, and all around moaning gobshite, is your England captain for the WC.

The joke of an organisation that the FA is in a nutshell ..... 'SO sorry we tweeted a joke about you Sir Harry. How can we make it up to you? You know you're our number 1 guy!'

Although that said, maybe as Captain he can just claim everyone else's goals straight up instead of sinking to the pathetic depths of swearing on his daughter's life? (Whilst lying through his gormless looking grid.).

hard to tell, but I'm getting the slight impression your not keen on Kane? ;)

Meh, as good as anyone in that team to be captain I guess, this is the worst England squad on paper I've seen for a long time. But Kane is probably the best of the bunch.
