not sure national teams do it as much as they did in the past, at one time the likes of Ferran Torres, Pedri, Eric Garcia for Spain, Musiala for Germany, probavbly a few for Portugal would be there but they now play for the National Team

Crazy statement. He's just desperately throwing out nonsense to try and save his job. Said he expected Mount and Bellingham to be in the squad too but wasn't allowed. Mount hasn't played for the u21s for almost 2 year. No idea why he would be involved. Think Bellingham has about 3/4 caps for the u21s, it's fair to expect him to be involved but he's hardly a key player plucked out of the team last minute. Bizarre excuses.
If you're a fringe player then probably but if you're a starter or make regular appearances for the senior squad then there's no point them joining the U21s. Looking at some of the senior squads, there are quite a number of players who are eligible for the U21s but apart from Bellingham and Musiala, I don't think any of those players have any business playing for the U21s.
England: James, Rice, Foden, Mount and Bellingham
Portugal: Pedro Neto and Joao Felix
France: Mbappe
Germany: Havertz and Musiala
At least he's finally dropped Davies. He's been dreadful so far.
I think they’ll go out.
Portugal beating Switzerland already. 1-0
If we somehow qualify from here I'll be amazed and somewhat confused
Same here.
Can England still qualify? Thought we were out.
Pen!!! Please don't miss
Penalty for England, they've been all over Croatia so far this game.
How have England not scored there 
Eze 1-0.
Strange penalty. Don't think it was deserved.
Strange penalty. Don't think it was deserved.
How is that a penalty 
H2h goal difference between the 2 sides involved settles it. England need Portugal to win and to win by 2 or more themselves
Cheers.
England have reverted back to their Conservative style of play and will be punished if they continue like this.
Yeah Croatia back on top now. Lucky to not be 1-1 there.
Ramsdale is shite
And again.
Has Connor Gallagher ever played football before?
Shocking.
Shocking.
Nketiah
I don't know whats happened to him. He's another that's been very poor so far.Nketiah
Curtis Jones is good, I think he should be part of the Euro squad for the senior team personally.
I wouldn’t play him over any of the guys in the senior team currently.
England channeling their inner Atletico Madrid there, what with the constant screams of outrage and bursts of playacting at any Croatian challenge
Even when the challenges are non existent!
Henderson might not be fit for the Euros so there might well be a spot opening. Of course he's not a pure holding type but offers a lot in his locker. Seems very polished as a central midfielder and is quite progressive in his style of play. That said, if he was going to play he'd probably be in the senior squad for the qualifiers now(!)
He's dreadful every time he plays a game, same with Eddie up top.
Our brave lions are back in business.
Pathetic. fecking bottlers. All our young teams. feck off. So many chances missed.
Massive goal by Jones.
The manager could have spared himself a lot of trouble had he selected Jones from the beginning, amazing young midfielder.

Been so poor (in the last two games), let's hope we can hold on
Are you OK?
They're learning the Continental Dark Arts from the game....
Brewster is not that great is he? Next Solanke.
And Eze who is our most experienced player. If we get through then Boothroyd will see this as vindication when it took him 7 injuries to start a player that‘s played in Champions League knockouts this season.
It's Coming Home?!?
In reality, the English always have been the biggest divers.
Brace yourself. He will stay more 2 years after the miraculous turnaround. At least that will be the predictable spinning coming to keep him on the job.
