Is Southgate aware that Pope's first game next season is in July? ;)

Tarkowski is extremely unlucky that Southgate is the manager.

Yeah, and how unlucky he remains depends on which club he joins I suppose. Let’s see what happens then.

Obsessed with young players coming through the system, rather than proven, hardened, experienced footballers.

Invariably, these exciting young players find their level, which is often way short of their initial impact.

Champions League final a few days before, so he and TAA are being given a break from international duty, which TBF makes sense in a WC year, no point burning the squad out, and it's not as if England are short of quality in CM.

Good point. Hadn't considered that.
