Southgate wants clear heads after jittery day
The Straits Times
|June 08, 2024
Gareth Southgate has urged his England players to refocus after he dropped Jack Grealish, James Maddison and Harry Maguire from his Euro 2024 squad.
-
The Three Lions boss showed a rarely seen ruthless edge as he axed Manchester City winger Grealish and Tottenham Hotspur playmaker Maddison following their poor form at the end of the domestic season.
He also showed no sentiment by leaving out Manchester United defender Maguire, who has been a mainstay of his reign but was unable to recover from a calf injury in time for the June 14-July 14 tournament in Germany.
Southgate was due to submit his final 26-man squad on June 7 before releasing the list the following day.
But news of his decisions to leave out Grealish, Maddison, Maguire, Curtis Jones, James Trafford, Jarrad Branthwaite and Jarell Quansah leaked early, prompting the Football Association to announce the squad prematurely.
