On the evening of November 10, 2022, England announced the 26-man squad for the World Cup in Qatar, Reece James was dropped due to injury, Manchester United's talented winger Jadon Sancho was absent, and Mourinho loved Roma striker Tammy Abraham.
The England squad announced is as follows:
Goalkeepers: Pickford (Everton), Pope (Newcastle United), Ramsdale (Arsenal)
Defenders: Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool), Cody (Everton), Dyer (Tottenham), Harry Maguire (Manchester United), Luke Shaw (Manchester United), Stones (Manchester City), Trippier (Newcastle United), Walker (Manchester City), Ben White (Arsenal)
Midfielders: Bellingham (Borussia Dortmund), Gallagher (Chelsea), Henderson (Liverpool), Mount (Chelsea), Phillips (Manchester City), Rice (West Ham)
Forwards: Foden (Manchester City), Grealish (Manchester City), Kane (Tottenham), Madison (Leicester City), Marcus Rashford (Manchester United), Saka (Arsenal), Raheem Sterling (Chelsea), Callum Wilson (Newcastle United)
Sosgait has called up and given him a chance, and in terms of Abraham's form last season, he is more than capable of being Harry Kane's replacement. But this season's performance has been poor, with 13 rounds of games and only three goals, a serious decline compared to last season's hot form, and Southgate can be forgiven for giving up on him.
Roma's forward line has not been performing well this season, Dybala's injury has caused the Roma forward to panic, everyone has been in a goal panic like a demon, and Tammy Abraham is in a sleepwalking state as the arrow figure of the Roman forward. Maybe I want to participate in the World Cup too much, I am eager to show myself, but I can't play in form.
Also frustrated is Manchester United winger Sancho, before the transfer to Manchester United, he was a hot star, after the transfer to Manchester United completely lost himself, his advantages have not been shown, Manchester United has too many players to choose from, if Manchester United has been unable to play form, Sancho should consider changing the environment to find form.
England's opponents in the group stage are not very strong, and if nothing else, there should not be much problem in qualifying from the group.
England Group Stage Schedule:
21 November at 21pm England vs Iran
November 26, 3pm England vs USA
30 November at 3pm Wales vs England
