Wilshere gets in because he's the best central midfielder we have.

How is Delph in over Noble? I can understand taking Wilshere if we have a couple of friendlies before the tournament kicks off, still a risk though. Rooney was never going to miss out, but would have arguably preferred Carroll to him. Antonio would have been better than Sterling too. Not too happy with Roy and his favourites, but every England manager seems to have them.

Nothing better than yer da's who spell Wilshere as 'Wiltshire' thinking he don't deserve to be in the squad. He'll moonwalk straight into that side and pick up MOTM in every group game.

Then get injured and miss the rest of it. I agree that he's probably our most talented midfielder and ultimately I would have taken him anyway. But it doesn't mean he deserves it

There has to be a balance between form vs quality. You can't have the likes of Mark Noble populating the entire England squad ffs. He's probably one of the first names on the team sheet and was our best player in qualifying. You'd have to be a mong not to take him, especially when he's gonna be 90% match fit by the time the Russia game comes along.

He'll get injured before the tournament starts anyway.

Wilshere avoids being crunched he avoids being injured. Simple as that really. Don't think he's ever picked up a muscle injury

He never had the chance to pick one.

Taking 3 CB's is a poor decision, particularly when already lacking quality in the position. One genuine injury and it puts a lot of pressure on the remaining two to stay healthy and not get suspended.

Wilshire was always going to go, undeservingly so though. On paper he may be their best midfielder but the game isn't played on paper and he barely makes it onto the pitch. Can't see him having much of an impact unless he gets more games into him first, 141 minutes of EPL this season (apparently) isn't going to cut it.

Chelsea striker Diego Costa has been left out of Spain's provisional squad for Euro 2016.

Coach Vicente del Bosque has also overlooked Manchester United midfielder Juan Mata and Atletico Madrid's former Liverpool and Chelsea forward Fernando Torres.

Not that shocking is it? Torres maybe, but the other two have hardly had great seasons.

Yeah Mata's been pretty shit this season and lost his place at no 10 to Jesse Lingard. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if we looked to sell him in the summer regardless of the manager.

Costa's had a crap season, and has still scored more goals in the league than Morata has in all competitions.

Costa was decent second half of the season once Hiddink took over. Still well short of his best, but certainly a vast improvement to the overweight and unfit version that begun the season.

This'd probably be my choice from the squad:

Not at all, just torres I would of thought, the other two shouldn't be there anyway

Wilshere will start basis on he's the best English midfielder, Rooney will start based on the fact he gives Roy a facial every night

On what basis? He's played like one fucking game in a year. For a fucktard comparison, Eden Hazard was one of the best players last season. No basis to be in the team at all.

And? He's coming back to full fitness and is our best midfielder. I for one would rather see a player who doesn't chase his first touch round the pitch like Wilshere than someone like Noble/Milner/Henderson who have developed their stamina that way. The three main men in midfield should be Dier, Alli & Wilshere, there's no doubts about it.

I think the point is that he's played 131 minutes of football this season, regardless of his ability or not. He's extremely undercooked and just as likely to break down once again as he is to play 90 minutes.

If anything, he should just be played from the bench as a creative alternative to Alli. Or if England are chasing a game and he comes on for one of less creative midfielders. A player needs a degree of form behind him to be a starter, something Wilshire doesn't have. Playing him from the bench initially would be the more logical approach opposed to simply throwing him into the starting eleven and hoping for the best.
