Announced tomorrow - no real surprise in who probably makes the cut.

Olise seems to making the headlines as he could turn out for us with France now giving him the cold shoulder.

absolute baller in my eyes and given the season he has had - would be a warm welcome to that England team !

for me there is absolutely no reason (on paper again) why we should not be in the final of this tournament again !

given the France team on paper looks to be the strongest i would not look also beyond an Italy or Holland sneaking in there too.

lots and lots of youth in all these teams now with alot of the old guard now retired.

Be interesting to see if this Mainoo kid makes the trip too and given the form of Palmer, seeing him in there with Foden and Bellingham the top half of the pitch has never looked so good for England

a Germany England final would be nice - them having to recall Kroos though and some other key names not making the fold, cant see them getting past the semis. although ive not worked it out but no doubt we meet them in the semis and get knocked out on pennas again!

England wont be in the final. I am very confident of that. Southgate is a serial loser with limited tactical acumen.

I expect us to win it if we can end the penaltys debacle.

Ive been negotiating with her indoors - the flight prices to get to germany during the tournament are pennies. Id love to go over and witness some of the atmosphere and even try get some tickets off the street if possible. Has anyone done any of the previous euros or WCs ?

Atmosphere.?I'd give the first game a miss unless you're quick on your toes when the Serbian Ultras turn up..seems like it's a notch on their belts abroad nowadays to kick off on a bunch of England fans just enjoying a drink.

Genuine or fake..you'll never speak to that ticket seller again..you'd have to bring any issues up with his minder.

Heard a story about three lads who drove over and were watching a night match, parked their car up and after the match couldn’t find their car..two German policeman asked them what the problem was and the driver said he couldn’t find his car but he’d wrote the Street and told them…the policeman started laughing….He’d written down ‘Einbahn Strasse’….’One Way Street’, they did find it by telling the police the name of the shop it was parked outside

Bundesliga clubs have done much better in the European club competitions this year than English ones - most of the England squad play in the Prem so as usual we're probably not as good as we think we are. Definitely not if the injury prone part-timers Maguire and Henderson get the call.

Not forgetting that colossus of the game, Raheem Stirling.

His face doesn't seem to fit anymore - Southgate hasn't picked him since the World Cup.

their replacements much much better - hes actually given players a chance on merit due to their season stats. Eze is a breath of fresh air for this side and so is the new kid from Crystal Palace whos had a hell of a season too !

Looks a good squad imo. Well done Southgate for the selections and omissions.
