England squad announcement LIVE: Palmer and Foden snubbed for World Cup as team leaked

Former England manager Gareth Southgate has revealed he is “not missing” having to tell players they were not part of the team, which he recalled were “some of the most horrendous conversations”.

Sir Gareth made his comments ahead of Thomas Tuchel naming his 26-man squad for this summer.

Referring to the calls being received by the players, Sir Gareth said: “They were some of the most horrendous conversations I ever had.

“So, basically, what I’m saying is I’m not missing any of this.”

He added: “I also will be giving the team space so I’m not doing media this summer, because I think anything I say will be amplified, thrown at Thomas and won’t help his job.

Three Lions fans have been reacting to the leaks surrounding England's World Cup squad.

@Chelsearory went big: "When you actually think about it, it’s a disgrace that Thomas Tuchel is England manager, a national embarrassment."

@AnfieldRD96 saw it differently: "Everyone complaining? Am I the only me that thinks Tuchel is making all the right decisions? If you haven’t performed for your club, you’re not going. Simple."

@NffcSimonx wasn't happy with Morgan Gibbs-White being left out: "Jordan Henderson over the most in form 10 in the country !??. MGW."

While @RoverSantaBluez made the case for Adam Wharton: "But Wharton isnt. At least I don't need to bother watching any England games at silly o'clock."

Think Thomas Tuchel has made a mistake today and that Phil Foden, Cole Palmer or Adam Wharton should have gone to the World Cup?

You can vote in Express Sport's poll on whether Tuchel has made the right decision to omit so many big names.

Morgan Gibbs-White, Jarrod Bowen, Harry Maguire, Adam Wharton, Luke Shaw and Lewis Hall are all among those set to miss out.

Thomas Tuchel has five centre-back options going to the World Cup.

The Telegraph claim that Marc Guehi and Ezri Konsa are joined by Dan Burn, John Stones and Jarrell Quansah.

There is no spot for Harry Maguire, who has already voiced his disappointment at the decision.

Chelsea's Levi Colwill is also absent, having spent the majority of the season out through injury.

Eberechi Eze is set to be included in England's World Cup squad.

That's according to Ben Jacobs, with the Arsenal man having helped the Gunners to the Premier League title.

He has been given the nod ahead of some of England's other creative players, including Cole Palmer, Phil Foden and Morgan Gibbs-White.

Jarrod Bowen hasn't done enough to make it into Thomas Tuchel's World Cup squad.

That's according to talkSPORT, who are reporting the West Ham United attacker isn't included in the 26-man list.

There's no place for Morgan Gibbs-White in the England squad, according to reports.

The Nottingham Forest ace has enjoyed a stellar season for the Tricky Trees.

His performances helped guide them to the Europa League semi-final.

But, according to the Telegraph, Gibbs-White won't be on the plane to North America.

Jordan Henderson is reportedly included in the England World Cup squad.

The veteran midfielder has been chosen ahead of the likes of Adam Wharton.

That's according to the Daily Telegraph, who say the Brentford man will be on the plane for his fourth World Cup.

Harry Maguire's mum went to social media to (presumably) voice her disgust at her son being left out of the World Cup squad.

Ollie Watkins is set to be included in England's World Cup squad, according to reports.

The Aston Villa attacker has enjoyed a stellar end to the season and was part of the side that won the Europa League.

He had struggled for form earlier in the campaign, but looks as if he's done enough to earn a space.

Ivan Toney is reportedly in contention to be included in Thomas Tuchel's World Cup squad.

That's according to Sky Sports, who claim the striker is included in the final 26-man squad.

There are contrasting reports from the BBC, which state he's still in contention, but could be left out.

Toney last played for England in a friendly just over 12 months ago.

Quite the call involving two Newcastle lads, with Lewis Hall not included, while Dan Burn is.

According to talkSPORT, Hall hasn't made the final 26-man squad, while Burn has.

That one will certainly split opinion.

Cole Palmer has been left out of the World Cup squad.

The Chelsea man has endured a difficult campaign and has been at risk of missing out on a spot in the squad.

His worst nightmares are set to come true, as Palmer won't travel to North America.

The leaks keep coming because Adam Wharton is reportedly set to miss the World Cup.

The midfielder has enjoyed a stellar campaign with Crystal Palace, and will play in the Conference League final next week.

But, according to talkSPORT, there isn't a space for him in Thomas Tuchel's squad.

Noni Madueke has been picked in England's 26-man squad, as per the BBC.

He'll join up with Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice, who are both considered dead certs for the squad.

It was too little too late for Phil Foden, who is reportedly going to miss the World Cup with England.

That's according to The Times, who report the Manchester City ace isn't included in Thomas Tuchel's 26-man squad.

Foden featured in the starting XI for England at each of the previous three tournaments, but has struggled for form this season.

Fikayo Tomori isn't expected to be named in England's World Cup squad, as per reports.

The AC Milan defender has featured 36 times this season, but hasn't made the squad, according to the BBC.

Luke Shaw has reportedly been told he will not be joining the England squad heading out to the World Cup.

The Manchester United man has enjoyed an injury-free season and is one course to play all 38 matches.

However, it hasn't been enough to convince Thomas Tuchel to take him to North America this summer.

That's according to the Daily Mail, who are reporting England's Euro 2020 final goalscorer will sit the tournament out.

There's only 26 players who can be included in England's World Cup squad, meaning there will be at least some unhappy faces.

Phil Foden and Cole Palmer face a nervous wait to see if they'll be included.

Will Trent Alexander-Arnold make it on the plane?

The Express Sport writers picked out their biggest high-profile names who shouldn't be in the squad.

Give it a read!

Alongside the three goalkeepers named, talkSPORT are also reporting that Anthony Gordon and Kobbie Mainoo are set to be included.

Gordon started the season in fine form, but has since dropped off and hasn't played for Newcastle since the end of March.

However, the outlet are reporting he's expecting to be included in the final 26-man squad.

Presumably, he'd be battling it out with Marcus Rashford for that starting left-wing spot?

And Mainoo will be delighted to get the nod after a very strong end to the season.

Harry Maguire admits he is "shocked" and "gutted" to have been left out of the England squad for the World Cup.

The Manchester United defender has enjoyed a strong end to the season and many would have expected him to be on the plane alongside Marc Guehi and Ezri Konsa.

Maguire issued a statement to talkSPORT, which read: "I was confident I could have played a major part this summer for my country after the season I’ve had.

"I’ve been left shocked and gutted by the decision. I wish the players all the best."

Harry Maguire has reportedly been left out of England's World Cup squad.

The defender had worked his way back into contention with a solid second half to the season.

He was part of the team that helped Manchester United secure Champions League qualification.

However, according to talkSPORT, Thomas Tuchel is opting to go in a different direction, with Maguire left out of the squad.

England will reportedly take four goalkeepers to the World Cup this summer.

Three of those will be named in the official squad, while the other will be a 'training' goalkeeper.

According to talkSPORT, Jordan Pickford, Dean Henderson and James Trafford are the three members of the squad.

However, Jason Steele will also join the team in the States to help make up the numbers in training.

We're like a kid before Christmas!

This time tomorrow, we'll know exactly who Thomas Tuchel intends to take to the World Cup in North America.

He's got a shortlist of 35 players to pick from, but who will make the final cut?

Stick around as we bring you all of the latest news in the build-up to England's squad announcement.
