'We stick with the guys who were in the previous camp'published at 11:04 GMT 6 November
EnglandEngland boss Thomas Tuchel on his selections in the number 10 position, and omitting Cole Palmer:
"We have enough number 10s and we stick to the guys who were in the previous camp because we were happy with the two and a half weeks we had together.
"We have Josh King as a new player in there, but I want to see him on both wings. He is kind of an extra player and he can play all four positions."

Palmer is unlucky to be left out, I think he should've put him in the next three ones (including this one) and if he dropped out in any of them, just don't even debate him.
Daniel, London
This is why an international manager needs a calm head. Palmer and Foden are easily in the best 24 players. Hierarchy need to remember we almost lost Jude not so long ago. Poor.

Have no problem with omissions of Palmer and Foden. Clearly neither fulfils what Tuchel wants from his squad - in training or during matches. As we saw under Southgate, the balance of the side is affected by squeezing either in the starting lineup so why bother with the egos?
JM, Cornwall
Happy to see Palmer miss out. Not just because of his absence from previous squads. He is also wildly inconsistent and too often looks disinterested.

Palmer was fit to be selectedpublished at 10:52 GMT 6 November
Nizaar Kinsella
BBC Sport Chelsea reporterChelsea told England that Cole Palmer was fit and available when staff from the national team contacted them this week.
There is some surprise, therefore, that Palmer, 24, is not in Thomas Tuchel's squad for the upcoming matches against Croatia and Spain during the November international window.
It is likely to be a major topic of debate, as Palmer's return of five goals and three assists this season compares favourably with many of those selected ahead of him. However, his record of withdrawing from international squads through injury is also likely to be discussed.
Both Tuchel (11:00 GMT) and Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso (13:30) are giving media conferences today, and the issue is likely to be a major talking point.
'Special moment for him and for us' - Fulham boss Arbeloa on King call-uppublished at 10:50 GMT 6 November
Fulham manager Alvaro Arbeloa has been speaking to the media before Saturday's Premier League game at home to Newcastle.
The Cottagers boss was asked about Josh King's call-up to the England squad for their upcoming Nations League games and the prospect that the Fulham academy graduate could make his senior debut against either Croatia at Wembley or away to world champions Spain.
"It's a special moment for him and also for us as a club and our supporters," said Arbeloa.
"He came to this club when he was eight years old and now you look at how he is playing and performing, so yes, we are really proud.
"It's a big step for him and I am so happy for him because he is a very humble kid. You can see every day he wants to improve every. So it's a special moment for him and for us."

As a Fulham fan, we have seen the potential in Josh for many many years. Chuffed to see him get selected, well deserved.
Charlie, London
The Josh King call up is great. I’m a Palace fan but he looks an exciting prospect for Fulham and I’m keen to see how he’ll do on this stage.
Nick, Kent
Ecstatic that Josh King has been called up. Fantastic potential. First Fulham to be selected since Bobby Zamora.

King called up after 'stellar start' to Fulham's seasonpublished at 10:43 GMT 6 November
Fulham announced Josh King's first England call-up on the club website following what the Cottagers described as a "stellar start" to their season that has included two goals and one assist in the Premier League.
The 19-year-old academy graduate has played at every youth level for England, from the Under-15s up to the Under-21s.
King has scored one goal in nine appearances for Lee Carsley's U21s and now steps up for the senior side's upcoming Nations League fixtures against Croatia at Wembley and world champions Spain in Madrid.
"Josh's selection comes following a stellar start to the season, starting every Premier League match, notching two goals and one assist," a statement reads on the club website.
"The midfielder had previously joined up with the England squad as part of the training group ahead of the Fifa World Cup in the summer, but will now be in contention to make his Three Lions debut during the November international break."

Hope Jobe and Jude share the pitch at some point - I feel like that'll go down as a very historic moment for England...especially when we look back on their careers once they've lifted numerous trophies for us!
Rob, Bexhill-On-Sea
Really happy to see Jobe here, I'm a Dortmund fan and he's been one of our best players this season. Plus, in my opinion Man of the Match in his last game against Real Betis, unlucky to not get a brace.
Holly, Albany
As a Dortmund fan, really pleased to see Jobe get his chance with the senior side. He's been great all season and it's a fully deserved reward for him - hope he and Jude both enjoy finally playing together!

Jobe following in Jude's footstepspublished at 10:30 GMT 6 November
Image source, Getty ImagesA star of the Birmingham City academy. Impressing in the Championship. A big-money move to the Bundesliga. Shining for Borussia Dortmund. An England call-up.
Jobe Bellingham's career is following a very similar path to that of his older brother, Jude.
Jobe helped Sunderland win promotion to the Premier League before joining Dortmund last year at the age of 19, in a deal worth up to £31m.
Jude had moved to the German club when he was 17, departing Birmingham City for an initial £25m in 2020, before joining Real Madrid for an initial £88.5m three years later.
Just as Jude did, Jobe represented England at various youth levels.
Now, they have been united in the senior Three Lions squad for the first time.

Honestly dont mind seeing Palmer left out, theres obviously a reason. Clash of personalities or effort during camps. The argument him missing to many camps also makes sense, every time he's picked he then walks out with an "injury" to then play for club straight after the break!
Harry, London
People don't understand - Palmers missed too many camps - BY CHOICE. This is Tuchel's revenge/punishment.
Adam, Manchester
Palmer would be in my starting XI but honestly? Well done Tuchel for sending message, Cole Palmer pulling out last squad after missing World Cup was disgraceful.

Tuchel looking to futurepublished at 10:22 GMT 6 November
Alex Howell
BBC Sport England reporterThere's lots of good talking points in this England squad.
No Cole Palmer and the inclusions of Josh King and Jobe Bellingham show that Thomas Tuchel is looking to the future.
Djed Spence comes back in after injury too while there is no place for Manchester City's Nico O'Reilly.
That's three of the four players who went to the World Cup as training players (Alex Scott, Rio Ngumoha and Josh King) who have been in a senior squad now. It's just Ethan Nwaneri who hasn't been called up since then.

Delighted to see Ben White back in the squad as there isn’t a better English RB at present. The only shame is Saka is missing - their relationship can be lethal for Arsenal.

Cole is obviously now being punished by Tuchel. Don't think there are many in country who wouldn't have him in squad.
Tim, Croydon
To be fair, I dislike leaving Cole Palmer out. However, this competition are glorified friendlies. It's good to give upcoming potential stars a chance to get international football.
Rhys, Clevedon
Palmer seems harsh if we're taking uncapped players too. Apparently he's missed too many camps - but then Tuchel is taking players that haven't been to any!
