Genuinely thought this was a meme at first. I fucking predicted this would happen and I didn't need my mystic Meg cloak on to do so. He's left Kyle walker out because he knows what walker is about. How does he not know that Stones is by far and away the best English centre back, he's got white and guehi to look at plus Mings and Coady looking to prove they're not both shit and maguire looking for a game where he isn't the worst player on the pitch, add to that there's players like Tomori looking for a way in, no need at all to have called Stones up. As a club we are shit at throwing our weight around and getting key players pulled out of international duty. TAA will miraculously be back after the internationals.
Praying its nothing, expecting the worst but regardless, let's stop our entire squad playing pointless friendlies every international break.
