England 26 man squad - who will be removed?

National squad - England


 Roy Hodgson, the manager of England's national squad has chosen the 26 man squad where three players will be discarded. Who will be the three? Here's my opinion on both the three who will be discarded but also the overall strength of the squad.

First of all I will be looking at the goalkeepers.
It's clear to everyone that Joe Hart will be one of the first players who will be sat on the pitch. He's the best keeper they have and also one of the best in the world when he's on top of his game.
Fraser and Tom will be two fine substitutes. None of these will be discarded.

Joe Hart

Fraser Forster

Tom Heaton 

On the backs we find some great players all over. Clyne and Walker will be fighting hard to be the man that will play. They are both really great and have been playing a great part in their clubs season.

On the left side we find Ryan Bertrand and Danny Rose. I think Danny Rose is better than Ryan and would, if it was me, be the one playing. None of these will be discarded.

Backs

Nathaniel Clyne

Kyle Walker

Ryan Bertrand

The defenders in the team are as any other we've been through at this point found in the Premier League. Gary Cahill is the most experienced of the four and therefor I think he will be playing a big part for England. By his side I think we will find Smalling who's been doing great for Manchester United in this season. John Stones and Eric Dier are both great but will be found the weakest.  None of these will be discarded.

Now for the midfielders. Here we will find the first players I think will be discarded from the final squad. It's overall some great players. This is the place where we will find a lot of hard work from the players to be chosen in the starting line up. I've had some hard times finding out who will be discarded but I've come to the conclusion that Fabian Delph will be discarded. He hasn't been playing well and is in my opinion one of the weakest links in this squad. 

Jack Wilshere will be the next player that will be discarded. He hasn't been playing much because on injury problems. The other players in the squad has been playing continuously which give them a big advantage.   

Midfielders

Dele Alli

Ross Barkley

Danny Drinkwater

Jordan Henderson

Adam Lallana

James Milner

Raheem Sterling

Andros Townsend

Jack Wilshere

And at last but not least it's time for the strikers. Here we will find the last player who will be discarded. Harry Kane is of course part of this squad. He is alongside Vardy the most dangerous striker in Premier League. Kane and Vardy has had a fantastic season! Rooney will always be a part of a squad like this while he is just in a fine shape only because of his name and influence. 

Daniel Sturridge is synonym with goals. He can make a goal out of nothing which makes him a fantastic player and of cause gives him a spot in this squad.

Rashford might be a brilliant talent and have been doing great for Manchester United but it's really overkill giving him a spot in this squad. He is not as great at the other players and he would be taking up a spot from a better player despite his great talent.

Harry Kane

Marcus Rashford

Wayne Rooney

Daniel Sturridge

Jamie Vardy

Overall it's a fantastic squad Roy Hodgson is about to take with him!

If they can reach a level where their way of playing is at it's top they can get really far in the tournament! They have got everything but a targetman in this squad which gives them many good possibilities. 

They will be one of my favorites.
