Dave Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Chris Smalling admits he has not spoken to Gareth Southgate about being selected in his England squad for the World Cup, but says he will let his football do the talking. The Manchester United centre-back, alongside compatriot Phil Jones, played a vital role in Saturday's 2-1 FA Cup semi-final win over Tottenham at Wembley. Jones is all-but-certain of his place on the plane to Russia but Smalling has played only twice under Southgate - who has omitted the 28-year-old from recent squads as he believes he has better options as ball-playing centre-backs.

Administrator Stan Posted April 23, 2018 Administrator Share Posted April 23, 2018 I'd take Smalling along with Stones, Maguire, Jones, Mee/Tarkowski. Then you'll also have Dier going as a midfielder but can play CB if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
