England Squad - 5 players

[Ragatino]

I know it's ridiculous that it's 35 players but still, we have 5 of them - Hall, Tino, Ramsdale, Gordon and Burn.

When is the last time we could say that. . . if ever.

Shows how much has changed, time was the England manager wouldn't even come up here now, he's been seen in director's box several times this season, and last.

Well done to all 5. Well deserved.

Bit sad on the Barnes front. If he keeps getting among the goals there could still be a chance down the road.

Credit to each of them, also, Kudos to Eddie & the Coaches for developing the likes of Hall, Gordon & Tino from young prospects and one with a 'bad attitude' into full international.

People seem to forget the contribution of the manager and staff in the progression of young professionals careers.
Due to the modern culture of idol/hero worship the praise is always on the individual. Of course they are the talent and do the work to become top players but it doesn't happen in isolation.

I just hope those lads appreciate what the team have done for them.
