PAUL MERSON has revealed his stunning theory on why Gareth Southgate did not select Jack Grealish in his Euro 2024 England squad.This has seen them top the group and put them on track for a spot in the knockouts, but the performances have not been without criticism, with the lack of attacking flair a common point., Merson was asked about the thoughts of Gordon and Palmer's zero minutes so far, revealing a theory about avoiding conflict in the camp.
He continued: "I think he brings on Eze, who's one of our most gifted players to do a job, he's running back. "We're one-nil up, you put him out on the right, he'll do what it says on the tin, get up and down, block crosses, get crosses in.ENGLAND vs DENMARK RATINGSLooked a little jittery early doors, though there was nothing he could do about Morten Hjulmand’s corker and he made a decent parry after the break.Made England’s opener by racing round a sleeping Victor Kristiansen - he’ll be having nightmares of that forevermore - and teeing up Kane via a deflected cross.
On his decision to axe Grealish, Southgate said: "I have just delivered a really difficult conversation to a lad who is devastated. I think the world of him as a kid.ENGLAND's lifeless display in the 1-1 draw with Denmark left pundits and legends queuing up to take a dig at Gareth Southgate's team.“I don’t think one England player can look at themselves and say, ‘I’ve done my job tonight’.
