I think he is naming a 40 man squad that will be slimmed later so I wouldn't be at all surprised if Ox is in the large squad.

 

EDIT: Lallana is in it!

lallana is in 40 man provisional squad...will he make it to the full u21 squad..?

 

some very VERY good players to compete with

 

Indeed - Smalling, Wilshere, Carrol, Sturridge, Albrighton, Rodwell, Sinclair, Welbeck......

1st thought I think he would but looks like a strong 40 so he could get cut. He has been put in as a forward too along with about 15 players by the looks of it!

That would be for the game they have at SMS then. Don't know if he's still qualified for the Euro 2011 U21s, though, need to be under 21 when the competition started,can't remember when that was.Couple of years back I guess.

He will almost certainly be in the final squad, personally it's through merit, but commercally it'll sell a fair few more tickets from us locals...

fair play to pearce on SSN...talking alot of sense

 

Absolutely.

 

A welcome contrast from the usual carp spouted by the FA's employees.

Chamberlain being injured didn't help his chances. However the under 20 World Cup is later this year and he may have a chance of being it that (although it clashes with the Football League season as it is in August). Well done to Adam Lallana! :)

Well done to him getting into U21s at 22 :-S

 

Why is that surprising? Would be daft if the rules excluded players that were able to play in the qualifying tournament from playing in the finals. It is "under 21's" from when the qualifying matches started, and Adam was under 21 at that point.

 

Just like a 12 year old can play for an under 12's team in the Tyro Leagues in Southampton, but the UEFA under 21 tournament is over a 24 month period and not 12 months.

Perhaps the 40 man squad will all be at SMS but will be cut after for the Championships? For me, I'd have Lallana in there. He's played more competitive games than most of those and is versatile. Not a bad squad though. I'd go with a starting XI of:

 

----------------------------Loach---------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Walker---------Smalling-----------------Jones-----------------Gibbs

-------------------------------------------------------------------

-----------Rodwell---------Wilshere-----------Henderson-----------

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Albrighton-------------------------------------------------Sturridge

-------------------------------------------------------------------

---------------------------Carroll----------------------------------

You have to be 21 or under at the start of the competition. Qualifying started in March 2009, when Lallana was 20.

 

 

So qualifiying started before the 2009 finals in Sweden?? Seems strange.
