Who's in your England World Cup squad

Got to ask how on earth Jake Livermore keeps getting in the squad, or why no one in the media ever questions why? Must be money changing hands there, I can't see any other reason he is even considered
I read that after players dropped out of a squad Southgate called multiple players to come in and they all declined. Then he called Livermore who was on a family holiday and came back straight away to join the squad. So now Southgate likes him as he can rely on him and he wants to be there. Makes sense because he is bang average.
 
My starting 11 -

Pope
Walker-Smalling-Jones-Delph
Dier-Henderson
Sterling-Alli-Lingard
Kane

I read that Smalling isn't in the squad.

That would be a solid team. Would probably get to the knock out stages.

be strange if Smalling isn't in the squad.
I would take Smalling and Jones to start. Stones a back up and then Dier from midfield if things get desperate...

Why would it be strange? He's wank and Southgate hasn't picked him in ages, even coming out and saying he's not good enough on the ball to be in the squad. Pretty surprised anyone would pick a Jones and Smalling CB partnership tbh

Have you seen our group? I'd back just about any team to get to the knock out stages ahead of the mighty Morocco and Panama

Yes which is why I said they are good enough to get out of the group and not much else.

I am much more interested in the next world cup when the likes of Foden, Sancho, Mount, Hudson-Odoi, Sessegnon, Gomes, Mceachran, Lookman will be in the squad and we will have a chance to win not just get to the knock out stages.

City and Utd have conceded the least amount of goals this season. Smalling, Jones and Stones have all played their part in this.

its easy to criticise and not offer an alternative.
who are your CBs then?

Stones and Maguire, because we don't have David De Gea in net to save all the chances Smalling and Jones gift the opposition. We have Jordan Pickford, who specialises in not saving shots when his teams defence lets him down, yet avoiding all the blame.

I imagine we'll actually play that back 3 tbh with Walker alongside Stones and Maguire
