Kane, Palmer, Henderson all out of Brazil game​

England captain Harry Kane will miss Saturday's friendly with Brazil due to injury and is also "extremely doubtful" for Tuesday's match against Belgium.

The Bayern Munich striker hurt his ankle at the weekend and has not recovered in time to play at Wembley.

Chelsea's Cole Palmer and Ajax midfielder Jordan Henderson have also been ruled out with injury.

England manager Gareth Southgate said: "I would say Cole and Hendo have a better chance of Belgium than Harry. He would be extremely doubtful for that."

Meanwhile, Southgate revealed left-back Ben Chilwell is fit to play 90 minutes.

Jack Grealish, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Luke Shaw, Reece James, Kieran Trippier, Marc Guehi and Callum Wilson are all unavailable for this squad. Bukayo Saka has also withdrawn through injury.

What do we reckon, does waistcoat go with a triple or quadruple pivot?

Boring as fuck 1-0 Engerland win with a penalty.

Their only shot in the match.

They are already morally virtually 1-0 up by signalling in the correct fashion. Even if they're crap they will win the hearts and minds ;-)

Would be happy if none of ours get it because they aren't playing.

Oh to dream.

 

[bluebanana83]

Hope Couto and Savio perform well. As for our England boys hope none of them play and stay injury free

 

[J.G.Blue.]

Hendo, Coleo & Harryo are all out so not doubt Fodeno will get flogged to death in two completely pointless friendlies.

Death, taxes, and Southgate selecting Henderson.

Lets hope the waistcoated cretin moves to the rags & then signs up Hendo.

And all will finish*

Yeah this is a really big issue.

What we really need to all focus on is that Jordan Henderson, who isn’t starting or on the bench, is part of the 30 man training squad.

Forget the football match about to happen, we need to exclusively whine and complain about the 6th choice midfielder Southgate has gone with, because everyone knows you can’t win a tournament unless your 6th choice midfield option is world class.
