    I'm tired of seeing Lewis Dunk constantly over looked by Southgate, he is 100% in the top five English centre-backs

    Gaz

    Spurs players should not be picked. They need to be rested. Come on Gareth, do the right thing!

    Rich, Aldermaston

    Lewis Dunk has a solitary England cap - playing the whole 90 minutes against United States in November 2018.

  2. Quiz: Which clubs have made the CL group stages at least twice?

    In honour of today's Champions League group stage draw, today's quiz is challenging you to name every side since the Champions League began in its current format in 1992-93 to have appeared in that stage on at least two occasions.

    Harrison Short: Gareth took a risk by picking one of the youngest and most inexperienced squads at the 2018 World Cup, while leaving out loyal stalwarts like Joe Hart and Jack Wilshere, and it paid off. He needs to get rid of the deadwood and take risks again for Euro '21 success.

  4. Gossip: Man Utd open Dembele talks

    Ry Segal: Although Southgate unfortunately won't, I think Nick Pope has to be number one, and you have to say given early season form Ings and Calvert Lewin should be in the squad, perhaps even starting in a front two with Kane. Let's see if he will ACTUALLY pick on form.

    Sam Line: Harvey Barnes deserves a call up good start to the season and has raw pace that scares top defenders

  6. Lookman 'delighted' to join Fulham

    Former Everton winger Ademola Lookman is back in the Premier League, having joined Fulham on a season-long loan from German club RB Leipzig yesterday.

    The 22-year-old, who began his career at Charlton, tweeted his delight at the move earlier this morning.

    As a Welsh-born Spurs fan, it's the right call to leave Bale out. Give him time to get back to full fitness - for both club and Country - will only benefit both over the long term. Well played, Giggs.

    Mark, Wales.

  8. Premier League news conferences

    Away from England, we also have Premier League news conferences from Leeds and Brighton to bring you.

    Ben Chilwell will also be speaking to the media about his summer move from Leicester to Chelsea.

    We will bring you updates after 13:00 BST

    Stewart Fletcher: Two players who finally got a chance last time and didn't disappoint must be back in. Conor Coady and play a back three, and get Jack Grealish in again and give him more time

    Simon, Watford: Reece James must be a shoo-in. One of the most physically imposing 20-year-old players I've seen. Longer term issue will be how to fit him and TAA into the same team. Could James move to centre back?

    Keith N: I'd like to see Reece James called up, surely it's time?

    Think Gareth should include Foden and Greenwood. They know they did wrong but it's been a good start to the season for both. Keep boosting their confidence. They are our future.

    Freddie, London

    Might be a shock if included but Ryan Kent at Rangers has been on form. Also, could we see a new goalie if Dean Henderson isn't United's No.1?

  12. Bale back in training

    Gareth Bale has been left out of the Wales squad for their friendly against England and their Nations League matches against the Republic of Ireland and Bulgaria. The forward has been carrying a knee injury over recent weeks.

    However, he was fit enough to take to the training field at Hotspur Way this morning.

    Looks like we will be seeing Bale back in a Tottenham shirt very soon.

    Gary Lineker knows a thing or two about scoring goals for Everton and England - and he has thrown his weight behind a Dominic Calvert-Lewin call-up.

    Will Thorogood: It’s a wonder that Bukayo Saka hasn’t been called up yet, he’s an incredible young talent with proven versatility across the pitch

    England squad announcement day always throws up the same debate. Form vs Ability. Southgate needs to start to form a settled nucleus of a squad, he can't chop and change with every player that hits a purple patch of form, three weeks before the next squad. Bamford isn't good enough for that level. You only call DCL up now if you plan on keeping him in and building for Euro 2021 (2020). England caps should be hard to get and special when received.

    Mark, Andover

  17. Who should Southgate select?

    There a number of issues for Gareth Southgate to ponder before he names his squad.

    Harry Maguire is expected to return after he was withdrawn from the squad last month, but will Mason Greenwood and Phil Foden be selected after their indiscretions in Iceland?

    Then there is Dominic Calvert-Lewin - has the Toffees striker done enough to earn a first call up?

    Decisions, decisions...

    Gareth Southgate names his England squad later today for matches against Wales, Belgium and Denmark.

    Who should be included? Who should miss out?

    Everton looking at Ben Godfrey is a good thing. Shrewsbury Town had him on loan three seasons ago, almost won League 1 with him and Henderson in goal despite the cash of others. Carlo should buy him. Future England captain in my view.

    Paul, Shrewsbury

  20. Champions League ball unveiled
