    The correct and very competitive list.

    I would obviously say Saka, but Rice would be a very worthy winner indeed.

    I love this boy, please make it happen, even if it’s probably bs

    Memories are nice, but that's all they are. Prestigious

    Yeah, I'd say Rice. He's been so crucial to that team and the form they've been in this season.

    London Football Awards? Down with this sort of thing. Maybe it's just me but I'm not supportive towards awards that hand all the power to the capital clubs only.

    If United really are leading the race for Kounde as reports out of Spain are saying, they're getting such an immense improvement on the backline with that signing.

    It's just an organisation that promotes football in that local area, particularly youth football. It's no different than any Liverpool or Manchester based organisation.

    After yet another throwing in of the towel after taking the lead in the first half, we’re 9 points from safety with 10 games to go. Squad has absolutely no fight left in it. We ground out a point tonight by making the game as shit possible. Local Derby up next first high flying Barnsley. The thought of both Barnsley and Rotherham doing the double over us in the same season is truly unbearable. Suppose it would take the edge off going down if we knock Barnsley of their high horse and they missed out on the play offs.

    I’ll be very disappointed but not at all shocked if the draw gives us City-Bayern before the final.

    I desperately don’t want all English finals again like a few years ago. Find European ties with teams from the same country a bit dull.

    Give me something like City vs Bayern in the CL and Arsenal vs Ajax in the EL.

    Eric Dier still getting called up to the England squad in 2021. What a time to be alive.

    Pope; James, Walker, Coady, Maguire, Trippier; Dier, Rice, Mount; Sterling, Kane

    That's what I expect Southgate to play.

    No TAA is causing some beef on the socials. It's a completely understandable decision imo.

    Doesn't help that the Liverpool journos like James Pearce are tweeting calling it beyond belief and stuff.

    Lad has been out of form for a while (though better recently) in a team horrendously out of form, whilst England legit have about 6 or 7 players that could start at RB. Makes total sense to leave him out and see what else we have.

    hmmm

    I mean, when you see some of the players who keep getting in for not really doing anything...

    I'm glad he's getting the rest.

    Was very surprised at TAA's omission also and would much rather have him in over Kyle Walker and Kieran Trippier (isn't he banned?).

    I would like to see (433)

    Pope; James, Stones, Maguire, Shaw; Rice, Bellingham, Mount; Saka, Kane, Foden

    He played against Chelsea last night, for some reason he was played at right back though?

    Just realised Michael Keane from Everton is not there either - He is surely playing better atm than Dier, Coady and Mings? Or is he injured?

    He's not injured, just overlooked for your aforementioned trio.

    hmmm

    Unless he's suddenly picked up a knock, he's fit.

    Southgate's selection criteria is all over the place - form over the whole season matters, except when it doesn't.

    where would i be if i was my brain Prestigious

    Part of me wants Liverpool in this next round. I think “beating that English side” could help their mentality moving forward.

    Dinamo Zagreb 2-0 up against Spurs. Tie's all square.
