I'm getting my Welbeck Fan Club shirt printed right now!

France didn’t qualify for the World Cup in 94 so it must have been 86 (I don’t think they qualified for Italia 90 but correct me if I’m wrong)!
When's the last time we only had 6 players representing us at a World Cup? Pitiful.

World Cup 1962
It's not like Aubameyang and Ramsey wouldn't have gone if their countries had qualified, to be fair.
Yes, it's an odd thing to get worked up about. I'm happy that our best players actually get the summer off for a change.

Sterling is better than every forward on that list too.
We won’t be fancied but I like the look of our squad
Loftus-Cheek is a great talent.
You need a big drop of fortune to win the World Cup. No other nation strikes me with fear.
Finding it difficult to support England these days with the team being largely made up of Spurs players. Expect we'll be bundled out inside a week again like the last World Cup in any case.

Definitely. I didn't think of Sterling as a forward but I probably should. Terribly underrated by the looks of it. He was arguably the best English player in Premier League this season. Peak Pires/Ljungberg-like output.
First time Deschamps impressed me with his selections. Didn't think he would be so brave with the young players.
Lacazette must be devastated. All his closest friends from Lyon are selected except him.
Nainngolan left out of the Belgium squad!
Fellaini picked over him 😆
As ridiculous as it is, it isn't shocking. Martinez has never liked Nainggolan, only played him two times in the qualification stage.
I think he played a total of 6 mins.
Martinez is a total fraud though.
Monreal makes the cut for Spain!
Morata and Fabregas left out.
Monreal took Alonso's spot, wouldn't have thought that.
Deservedly so. Fuck Alonso
Don't get the hype with Alonso - he's pretty average. I wouldn't say Monreal's much better as a player but at least he's twice the human being.
I agree, I just didn't think Lopetegui did.
