Wot no Michael Olise? Apparently he still holds out hope of a call from France, but even if he wanted to play for England, his visible rise in form was too late for all the transfer paperwork.

Can't believe Arsenal and Burnley's reserve keepers are in over Jack Butland. Just pipped into second place as Scotland's player of the year, had 25 clean sheets in 56 games including European matches. Must've been a better pick than Ramsdale or Trafford.

Well Palace's reserve goalkeeper is in the squad as well

It does though send a message to every rising young player in the Championship. Make a move to Palace and get picked for your country. I watched the Adam Wharton welcome video on the Palace website today, he was at that time just hoping to settle in and get some minutes! He pointed to the examples of Eze and Olise coming to Palace out of the Championship and being improved as a key reason for joining Palace. His inclusion in the England training squad is only going to add to that incentive for future stars from Championship That is how we will compete for their signature rather than the Chelsea model where they are bought, loaned out or kept in reserves.

Wharton is a gem of a player. Suspect he will only play if Rice gets injured but it would be great if he gets into the final squad and goes. Hopefully he will follow a similar trajectory at Palace, 5 seasons or so at the Spammers guiding them up the table then a major move to a bigger club for £100 million.
