    Why are 7/8 of our starters not there!?

    tuchel doesn’t wanna pick Wharton, he should be playing, 

    last time we won it, they were all there.
    I would imagine certain managers kick up more of a fuss than others… 

    Two good chances in the first three minutes, no one there from a great cross and another where they tried to walk it in yet again, and the defenders smothered the chance.

    Warton wasn’t selected for the senior squad due to concussion

    Mind you, when they do actually have a shot the keeper can throw his cap on it. As you say Gary, it’ll be a rout on Saturday.

    Insane that nobody in the team seems to be able to shoot. Everything was miles off target or a pea roller.

    2-0 this is their ressies 
    To be fair it's our reserves too.

    Trafford, Branthwaite, Lewis Hall, Lewis-Skelly, Rico Lewis, Colwill, Wharton, Mainoo, Rogers, Gittens and Delap are not there for various reasons. That's an entire team missing that would surely win the tournament.

    Doesnt help there has been a mixture of World Cup Qualifiers and the Club World Cup

    Else Delap would have been there for example.

    The football calendar is a total mess.

    Aside from too many games, you've got tournaments like the U21 Euro's and the Concacaf Gold Cup going on where some countries don't have players available because they're at the CWC.

    Jobe Bellingham withdrew too. Could also throw in Curtis Jones to the mix as well.

    Forgot about Bellingham. Technically Jude is also still eligible as well.

    Is Rowe in the U19 squad any relation to Rowe in the U21 squad? And I have to admit I don't envy the commentators some of those pronuncuations - I really hope they've done a video with each of them saying their name.

    If I was to guess, I'd say no... the U21 version was born in London, started at AFC Wembley and went to Norwich; the U19 version is from Birmingham by the looks of things, as he started at West Brom and is now at Aston Villa

    Much better this half, but take too long to shoot when in good positions, unlike the Dutch.

    England keeper at fault again for the fourth. Netherlands four shots on target, four goals. Norway have scored so at the moment England are out.

    Inevitably two late goals for Germany mean they qualify.

    Unreal, what the fuck is he doing, he had his hands behind his back, then he moved them out. Can’t believe VAR has ruled it out.
