Ashley Westwood had more right to go than Wilshere.
Good decision on Rashford though.
Woy would want to hope Dier doesn't get injured/suspended. Only DM in the squad.
And only 3 centre backs. So Dier is cover there as well.
England only play 1 upfront though - so for the 3 forward positions Roy's potentially got:
Kane
Rooney
Vardy
Sturridge
Rashford
Alli
Barkley
Sterling
Lallana
For the 2 centre back positions he's got:
Cahill
Smalling
Stones
Dier (which would the presumably mean Wilshere holding mid)
Seems unbalanced to me.

I think he'll go 2 up and a diamond in midfield, but your point of unbalanced is still valid. I think Barkley is a talent, but I believe he'd benefit from missing this tournament and hitting the gym for a bit of cardio instead.
Barkley has done very little for months. He was dropped near the end of the season, wasn't he?
He definitely is the new Rooney.
Looks like Roy likes to spread his peanut butter very thin.
Are there many English CB's that can adequately play LB or RB? You'd think that'd be a better approach then just drop one full back.
Not really. There aren't many English CB's that can play CB though.
I'd say he's still got it in him to be a special player. Shame he's had a few years playing under that fucking charlatan Martinez. Get him doing two training sessions a day under Poch and he'd be unstoppable.
Agree, Stones and Barkley are far better players than the shambles of a season they have all had at Everton.
And if we are starting with one striker it is baffling.
Rashford was a winger at youth level and has looked alright cutting in from the right for United. Maybe that's a reason...
Can't argue with much of that really
Breaking News........Roy picks wrong squad again.

" Let me tell you cunts that think i know fuck nothing, that in fact i know fuck all."
In a way it makes some sense, if you haven't got a strong defence go in with a squad that can live up to the "you score 3 we'll score 4" method.
Still will place a lot of pressure on Dier. In a midfield with Henderson and wheelchair Wilshere
