Well he's got Phil listed as a midfielder rather than a forward, so he's already an upgrade on Southgate.
Giving lots of his under-21s a chance which is nice to see. Rico may be starting at left back looking at that squad.

Bit odd grealish has made it in when he had had an injury and hasn't played yet since missing out. One of the rare occasions where getting a call up could be beneficial for us though, get some fitness into him.
Was hoping stones would sit it out, we all know he comes back from every international injured. Walker left out isn't a surprise I don't think he's the type to retire but he should do, could greatly benefit us if he did.
Anticipated Rico Lewis getting in so that's no surprise and richly deserved.
From the rest of the squad, happy to see livramento called up, he's top class when he's fit, Wharton missing out is odd, real lack of actual midfielders in that squad which will likely mean Rice plays both games, won't be disappointed to see him rinsed.
Hopefully a central role for foden and he can show the world just how inept Southgate was.
Unnecessarily large number of forwards, they'd struggle to all get a game even if he gave them all 45 minutes over the 2 games. Half of the midfielders play in forward positions too. Perhaps a sign Carsley won't be a shit house and might try and get us to attack.

He's 34. Will be 36 come the next tournament and we have a wealth of talent in that position. Seems pointless to call him up walker should hopefully accept it with grace and announce his retirement as tripper has done and concentrate on prolonging his club career.What's happened to Walker?

I suspect that Lee is currently thinking 'Oh fuck, I've forgotten Kyle!'What's happened to Walker?

4 City players: Lewis, Stones, Foden, Grealish
Bit annoying that Foden and Stones have barely got back to matchfit starting standards since the Euros but are already in the England squad.
FFS, now they call up Lewis, when it doesn’t matter, just so there can be an extra risk of injury.
