Grealish should move to a bigger club to get greater recognition 👀
Or see if he can declare for Ireland again. All is forgiven, Jack pls.

Has Grealish ever even been in an England squad? Probably would have been given a cap by now if he hadn't declared for us, just to lock him in.
By Kidjr Go To PostFoden? NahLast season only Kevin De Bruyne created more chances than Grealish. The latter plays for Aston Villa. Foden may be better in a few years time, but Grealish is better right now.
By Laboured Go To PostJust noticed there's no specialist LBs left lolWhere's Saka?
By Cleff Go To PostAny speculation on England's goalkeeping situation. Southgate can't stick with Pickford surely.
Pope will be first choice.
Nice to see Greenwood, Phillips, Foden, Mount in there, but yeah - no Grealish and Maddison is surprising (I know the latter's been injured, but we have to cap him some time.
No left back, so we'll play a 3 and then someone out of position lol. Madness. Imagine TAA or Trippier will be asked to play there. Fuck, maybe Dier. Imagine.
I'd go Pope; Walker, Gomez, Maguire; Alexander-Arnold, Rice, Phillips, Mount; Sancho, Kane, Sterling
edit: amended to put phillips in and rashford out
By domino Go To Postput in that transfer request Jack. you'll never get in from Villa rn.
Mings giving him shit at training i reckon
Southgate's gotta be desperately hoping for an English youngster to emerge who isn't an attacking midfielder or right-back

Rice and Phillips the great hopes innit. What I'd give for one of two of Scotland's LBs lol
By batong_doicare Go To PostWho's Kalvin Phillips?Kevin Phillips in disguise
By batong_doicare Go To PostWho's Kalvin Phillips?Leeds midfielder
Grealish should be in, but I'm not surprised Foden is ahead of him.
Southgate probably prioritized the fact that Foden is already playing with a tactic he's trying to emulate with England NT.

Speaking of the NT.
FIFA changed some rules about the upcoming games.
Kicker had some infos.
FIFA changed some rules about the upcoming games.
Kicker had some infos.
Due to the corona crisis, FIFA has softened the regulations on the release of national players. The changes only applies to the international match window in September.
This is the international association's reaction to the travel and entry restrictions in Europe. Under certain conditions, clubs are no longer obliged to release their players.
This applies, for example, if quarantine or self-isolation of at least five days is mandatory upon the return of the player to his club or upon the arrival of the player with the national team. If complications arise due to travel restrictions, the club may also refuse to release the player.
By Laboured Go To PostJust noticed there's no specialist LBs left lol3 RBs, one of which is TAA who I don't think has taken part in preseason.
Could see them playing Mings at LB
By Flutter Go To PostGrealish should be in, but I'm not surprised Foden is ahead of him.Alternatively, Foden is a media darling who plays for a successful club and Grealish isn't and doesn't
Southgate probably prioritized the fact that Foden is already playing with a tactic he's trying to emulate with England NT.
Grealish should be in squad but don't understand people saying he should be in ahead of _____ when they don't even play slightly similar positions.
Ludogorets players tested positive for the big rona. Would be funny if the reason for Midtjylland finally doing something in Europe again was the rona.
PIRLOOOOOOO
“I spoke to Higuain. He’s a person I admire very much, he had an important period here and was a great player,”
“But we decided that our paths must be divided. He was a great champion, but the cycles end. He was put aside but as a serious person, we spoke to each other and made this decision.
“As for [Sami] Khedira, he’s injured. We’ll see when he gets better.”
“I want to bring back the enthusiasm, propose a proactive football with great mastery of the game,” Pirlo said at a press conference. “I told the lads two things: you always have to keep the ball and when you lose it, you must get it back quickly.
“I’m convinced that I’m in the right place at the right time. Tactically we could play with four or three at the back, I have no set formations.
“Enthusiasm must be brought day by day. We need to talk to the players, make them participate in training and make the players understand what we want. Juve always have one goal: to win.
“I immediately felt at ease, I met many people with whom I had worked.”
Juventus have swapped Miralem Pjanic for Arthur Melo and Pirlo thinks the Brazilian midfielder can be ‘very useful’ at the Allianz Stadium and quashed rumours regarding a move for Paulo Dybala.
“Quality players can play together in any team, the important thing is that everyone are ready to sacrifice and willing to work for others.
“Arthur is a quality player who can fill multiple roles and will be very useful throughout the season.
“Dybala is an important player, he will be part of the project.”
Igor Tudor has returned to Juventus and will work for Pirlo, who said he chose the ‘perfect’ assistant.
“Tudor was my choice. I needed an assistant with experience and who had been a former footballer and former defender, and above all with a certain type of personality.
“Plus, he was a former Juve player, so the perfect person.”
The new coach hopes that he will be the right man to lead the Bianconeri forward but
“We must be willing to make sacrifices, when there’s a goal, we must reach it all together,” Pirlo added.
“If I was destined for the job will depend of the results. I was told as a footballer and it came true, I hope it can also happen as a coach.”
By Nonja Go To PostWould have Grealish ahead of Pickford
Well that goes without saying
By cRrusheR Go To PostHope Pirlo can come through, it will be rough without bringing in a quality CM.I keep hearing good things about Arthur
pretty sure we're bringing more too since both Matuidi and Pjanic are gone already and Khedira is on his way out
Manchester United captain Harry Maguire asked police who had arrested him on the Greek island of Mykonos "Do you know who I am?" and offered to give them money, his trial has heard.
