No Maddison is a farce. Well done James Justin!James Justin is in the England squad.
No place for Maddison or Barnes, despite them having better stats this season than most of the players in the squad.
I assume these are friendlies as well?
What a ****England boss Gareth Southgate on James Maddison missing out on the squad: "He has finished the season very well. He is obviously scoring goals but we just feel we are very happy with the players that have been with us. He is competing with Mason Mount and Phil Foden and these types of players in the role where he is at his best. It's one of the positions where there is a lot of strength in depth and you may have to leave players out who may be equally as deserving."
Southgate picks more players from "smaller" clubs than his predecessors did. And he's picked Justin for this squad. I think it's more due to Southgate not liking Maddison.It's going to force Maddison's hand eventually. If he's at Chelsea, Arsenal, etc, he's in the squad.
Shite state of affairs.
Southgate picks more players from "smaller" clubs than his predecessors did. And he's picked Justin for this squad. I think it's more due Southgate not liking Maddison.
Agreed, he clearly doesn't fancy him. But the pressure would be more sustained and louder if he played for one of the more "prominent" clubs. Even Smith-Rowe got a call up previously.Southgate picks more players from "smaller" clubs than his predecessors did. And he's picked Justin for this squad. I think it's more due Southgate not liking Maddison.
