Who will be in the English squad assuming all Super League players can't play for their national teams?

I want your starting 11...

The only certainty with Southgate still as the manager ,no Albion players would be selected.

Would still have a decent team. Different, but decent.

Pickford/Pope

Coady Dunk Webster
Rice
Grealish Maddison Bellingham
Sancho Calvert-Lewin

Some others. I dunno. It would still be alright. Germany would batter everyone by staying out of ESL though. Stupid principled, sensible Germans.

I was about to post a thread on this very same subject and what a 'big 6-less' England team/squad would look like.

Keeper would be either Pickford or Pope

I reckon my squad would be along the lines of:

Pickford, Pope, Johnstone

Targett, Cresswell,
Walker-Peters, Lamptey(if fit)

Dunk, Webster, Coady, Mee, Keane

Phillips, Rice, Ward-Prowse, Bellingham, Maddison

Barnes, Grealish, Sancho, Calvert-Lewin, Watkins, Bamford

I reckon my team would look something like:

Pickford
Cresswell
Webster
Dunk
Walker-Peters(Lamptey if fit)
Rice
Ward-prowse
Maddison
Grealish
Calvert-Lewin
Sancho

4-3-3.

Not the world's greatest team but not terrible either.

Grealish, along with all the other ‘box office’ players would potentially either jump ship to the ESL or be signed via some backdoor arrangement to provide the necessary glitz and glamour. Even Zaha, who could end up at Arsenal or Spurs.

Surely to stop players going to play in for eg exhibition games must be something in players contracts to say can only play in authorised games

It could see Sanchez as Spains number 1.

Which country would suffer the most? Spain presumably would be in a bit of bother with no Barca, Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid players but they probably have a wealth of talent at other clubs? Italy? Holland?

I'd assume it would leave Germany looking very strong. France would be missing a few wouldn't they? Portugal?
