I'd rather have my squad, and if Butland turns out to be first choice keeper, wait for a Rob Green. We should have taken Hart for his experience even if he'd remained 3rd choice throughout, thank you David Moyes.
We have Alexander-Arnold, Jones, Stones, Walker, Trippier, Rose, Young, Dier and Delph all capable of playing full back, which seems strange especially as we experiment with three at the back.
Then we list five forwards when we'll probably start Kane as a lone front man and leave out Lallana entirely, who is one of our best chances of opening up defences for Kane ..............
It isn't that Southgate's squad is terrible, it's just that I don't think the 23 will bear any relation to the 11 he wants to put out there. He's picking the players who he thinks deserve it rather than the ones we'll need. If Dele Alli gets injured it'll put a lot of pressure on Sterling to make chances.
