Southgate 100% has favourites. A few man he selected don’t even start for their club 🤣

Grealish continually getting selected for England as a pale shadow of himself when he was largely ignored at his best for Villa is absolute peak Southgate 😂

• Sancho — 6 PL starts in 6 apps
• Grealish — 1 PL start in 2 appsAlso, Sancho has more PL goal contributions this season than Mount, Grealish, and Bowen combined but they're all selected ahead of him.
It's obvious, Southgate doesn't like Sancho.

Ben White and Sancho really unlucky not to be part of that squad….Southgate picking a load of players who can't get in their first team and closing the World Cup door on those two

Drops Sancho but calls up Grealish, Gareth Southgate ladies and gentlemen.

Southgate’s selections make zero sense. He dropped Sancho when Ole wasn’t playing him, fair enough.
But why’s Luke Shaw being selected when he no longer starts?
Why’s Grealish and Mount being called up when they’re in very bad form at the moment?

Forgot Kalvin Phillips even played for City. If Southgate starts him over Bellingham at the World Cup it's a joke.
