England World Cup 2026 Squad | Trafford, Stones, Guehi & Nico in

I'm sure Tommy T has his rationales based on how he wants to play but there's going to be some underwhelming picks. Was struggling to get interested in the tournament and our probable squad is unlikely to change that.
 
This is a shit tournament hugely bloated with teams and has no consideration for the environment and fans with cost of living. fifa is a joke with the Trump charade.

I’ll skip this tournament but perhaps tune in just for semis and final.
 
Tuchels squad selection is baffling.
The one thing I guess that has made it hard is that so many England players have been shite this season.

And will probably continue that form into the WC.

I'm in the not arsed category tbh .

Mainoo and Rashford - please !
 
There are some English players who will rightly feel aggrieved that they are not in that squad list.

I gave up being interested in WC a long time ago.Loads of rubbish matches and players dead on their feet due to excessive fixtures. Strange as it seems it might be good for the likes of MGW , Wharton and others not to go as they can't be blamed and may even increase their value in the transfer market. I'm even tempted to have a cheeky bet on us not even being in the top 2 in our group

I don’t think it’s that baffling.

The most important thing to remember is that the people getting argued about, who should be #21-26 in the squad aren’t going to play anyway.

Tuchel seems to be not going with players who’ll bring media pressure to select them (Alexander-Arnold, Maguire) and is instead just going for dependable, obvious back ups.

He said last year when he dropped Bellingham he wasn’t interested in taking the 25 best players, he was trying to build a squad. I don’t agree with some of his picks (Mainoo over Wharton is mad, MGW should be there, Toney shouldn’t) but England fans need to just let the manager make some decisions, and if they don’t work he’ll be gone in 6 weeks.

Someone responded to one of Maquires relatives tweets complaining about his exclusion “who in the family’s going to comment next? The family dog”!!

Made me chuckle.

Think he should be going personally.
 
Just glad Phil is having a break. He’d only be a scapegoat.
Mainoo has to be there as they need a Rag in the squad.
Saint Jude will throw his toys out when he’s sees his fam blud Alexander Armstrong not selected.
Looks like a squad built not to lose.
 
Is there a soccer tournament due? What’s all this about an England squad?

Baffling but at the same time, the same old names have been picked and not got it done. Its high risk reward from Tuchel but hes obviously playing a certain way and will only pick players that fit that.
