    Rezaa: If Lewis Dunk was playing for a top six club, he'd be picked without a doubt

    Mr M: Calvert-Lewin definitely deserves his place but the squad looks very short of quality in midfield.

    Richard: inexplicably and yet again no Lewis Dunk. Is this a Crystal Palace thing with Southgate?

  5. 'This might be the best lesson'

    England squad announcement

    BBC Radio 5 Live

    More from Jamie Redknapp now on Mason Greenwood and Phil Foden's omission.

    "I feel sorry for the two lads," Redknapp told BBC Radio 5 Live.

    "They are kids and they have paid a huge price but this might be the best lesson they are ever going to get. Hopefully, it is a learning curve for them and they will realise how careful they have to be.

    "You have to be an angle as a footballer now, otherwise you can get into a situation like these two lads have. I have no doubts they will come through and have amazing careers, but I have no problem with what Gareth Southgate has done."

  6. 'I was a young man once'

    England squad announcement

    BBC Radio 5 Live

    Speaking about Mason Greenwood and Phil Foden's omission from the England squad, former England international Jamie Redknapp told BBC Radio 5 Live: "These are two young men who have made a mistake and they have had to pay the price for that. But I was a young man once and I did stupid things, so you have to remember that.

    "I was so lucky I had honesty around me at all times. You just hope these two young men are being told by their agents and their families that this is not the way to behave.

    "The first time I made a mistake, my dad was the first person to tell me. I don’t think young sportsmen have that as much anymore."

    Francesca: I think nearly every player that people mentioned in the previous tweets, those players are in... so good guesses guys, clap on the back

    Sam: Foden & Greenwood instead of Phillips & Barnes. I know they were wrong for what they did, but we should prioritise results and class over discipline after only 1 upset in their careers. They're still young but super players and had already been sent home once.

  8. 'A lot of Dominic’s game I’ve liked for a long time'

    England squad announcement

    Gareth Southgate on calling up Dominic Calvert-Lewin for the first time: “He’s been in the pathway through the U21s, had a good season last season.

    “A lot of Dominic’s game I’ve liked for a long time, what he’s adding now is the goals that haven’t always been there and in the last 18 months or so he has really improved in that area.

    “He’s been a big part of Everton’s starting the season as well as they have and I’m very pleased to be able to call him up for the first time.”

    "Rose has been training hard," said Taylor. "What we're trying to do with her is just make sure she's ready.
