Complete b0llux, Leeds fans said he has gone backwards this year and we have ruined him so won't happen.

If he's picked those same Leeds fans will say it's all down to The Footballing Genius Bielsa and absolutely nothing to do with the fantastic season he's had.

The takeaway here is: Leeds fans are full of shit.

England’s Ben White

Our two English wingbacks aren't bad either :wink:

Good luck to Ben and I think he has great potential, but at this particular moment in time, I think our other two are better.

If Southgate is looking at cover in defensive midfield as well as centre back, White is the man I’m afraid but the other two are more of a goal scoring and goal stopping threat.

Ben's been very good but this would be an insult to Dunk, frankly

Agreed, Webster also

Wouldn’t put it past that Palace waistcoated **** to sow dissension at the Albion for a laugh though :wink:

Whoever goes I just hope its not Mings, although no doubt he will make this provisional squad. Mings is awful. He has a goal gifting mistake in him most games, and I cant forget those Ibrahimovic & Oliveira stamps to the head.

Making the 33 is a world away from making the 26.

Will hang on for official confirmation of the squad

I hope he goes just so every time another defender makes a mistake in training our Ben says loud enough for Southgate to hear "Lewis Dunk wouldn't have done that".

Agreed, but some of the 33 will be carrying injuries, so need to be looked at. Better to be in the mix than not.

Personally I don't think he will make the final cut. I would think it means a good chance of getting in the post Euro squads for the remaining WC qualifying matches.

If he gets a good studs up challenge in on Maguire and Mings during training he could be doing not only himself, but all of us a favour.

He probably won't make the final squad but this is fantastic news and fully deserved. Good publicity for the club too coming into a transfer window and the prospect of signing young, talented players.

What a talent, will be recognised as the best English centre back in the next few years.

If Maguire is injured then to me it is obvious that Dunk should play. I simply can’t see anyone else who can be that commanding figure. For all of White’s strengths he is not a direct replacement for Maguire, I would see him more as a stones replacement. I assume Southgate sees Mings as that man. It is astonishing.

Chuffed for Ben. I suspect social media is best avoided today with Leeds fans forgetting he was man of the match in their first match last season and saying he learned it all under Bielsa!

It would surprise me if Southgate works out that White is the best ball playing defender in his squad, I’d even put him above Stones. If he does then Ben will make the final 26 but I just have the feeling that Southgate is not interested in Brighton players.
