[Football] England squad announcement - Lewis Dunk RECALLED!

[Weststander]

Back up? He's twice the player Maguire is.

Maguire’s a conundrum …. terrible for Manure for many years now, imho good playing for England.

 

[S'hampton Seagull]

Withdraws from the squad due to injury. Gutted for him as I think this may have been his last chance.

 

[Deadly Danson]

Not a huge surprise. Shame for Lewis but great for us - get him fit for next season

 

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

Dunk has had to withdraw from the England squad due to injury. Gutted for him, it was clearly why he was rested for the last two games in the hope he’d be fit for England. RDZ clearly wanted him to get the chance again after his fine season.

 

[Mancgull]

Needs to rest. Shame for him.

Sad news but confirms what many suspected with him being rested a little towards the end of the season, plus comments from the gaffer and Lallana about guys “playing through injuries”. I suspect Lewis was one, and maybe it’s not the worst thing for the club or Lewis’s recovery that he has to miss these games

You can just hear the sly sniggering of that **** Southgate.....

 

[A1X]

Gutted

 

[The Sock of Poskett]

Very disappointed for him (and for us, not being able to watch him) but has to be the best thing getting rest and rehab so he's fit for pre-season. If he plays to the level he did last season once we start back, you'd have to fancy his chances of getting called up again.

 

[dstanman]

Shame for him after the season he had, but would rather have a rested and fit Lewis fit and ready to go again for what will be another tough season

 

[Wozza]

Shame. Call-up still a just reward, mind.

 

[Triggaaar]

 

[Carbonara]

Southgate would not have played him anyway.He only plays those who are with big clubs.

 

[Driver8]

Bollocks. Anyone want two tickets to England v North Macedonia?!

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

What a shame

Hopefully it is not one of those "niggling injuries" that keeps him out to Christmas. We had quite a number of players who ended up missing the end of the season with apparently minor injuries (Lallana, Sarmiento were both originally expected back bit didn't make it)
Also interesting to note that KDB effectively stated he's been playing with a bad hamstring for ages.

 

[The Fits]

Such a shame. Herculean effort to play through the majority of those last few weeks for us. Legend.

I’m not sure Sarmiento was ever really expected to be back. He broke a metatarsal towards the end of March and was going to be out between 1.5 and 2 months. That would have meant at best we could have expected him back for maybe the last couple of games if he’d had a perfect recovery.

Can’t remember where I heard, but think it’s a cartilage in his chest.

Oh fukking bollocks.
