Lad on twitter telling another stoke fan that Pickford met him and told him that Southgate has said he is number one. Disappointing news

Shame for Jack I spose but... he's been shite really hasn't he Does that guy sound believable though, actually sounding like a bit of a wind up. Think we will find out tomorrow

If this is true and Southgate finds out before the official announcement (if there is to be one, which I doubt), then maybe Jordan won't be number 1.

Wouldn’t read into that much mate. Media have been desperate to push Pickford to number one for ages. Do you reckon this guy on the thread is telling the truth though?

It should be Pope.
Pickford and Butland have both been absolute wank this season.

I thought it was fairly obvious that Pickford was number one when he played in the game against the Dutch the other month.

Pickford scares the living shit out of me when he tries to take on the opposition in his own area.
Jack has been appalling from crosses and made way too many mistakes.
Pope has been consistently excellent all season. He starts.

It doesn't really matter whoever Southgate puts in goal, we will do nothing this world cup. It's one of the worst England squads I've ever seen and a manager who never should have got the job in the first place.
That said, I'm looking forward to the world cup and I intend to enjoy it as a tournament regardless of how England perform.

It's been looking like Pickford for a while now hasn't it.
He's marginally better than Butland.

Isn’t it pretty much common knowledge he was going to be number one?
Think it’s the right decision, like Butland he’s got a mistake in him but his distribution is a lot better and he commands his goal better.
I rate Pope but it’s hard to tell how good he really is as at Burnley he’s rarely exposed and is lucky if he has to make a couple of saves most games, although what he work he does have he usually does it well. Would be risky to chuck him into a side where he would be much more exposed.

Interesting that there are 12 players odds-on to start

I really don't get it. Any opposition manager worth his salt will tell his players to shoot on sight, with his strikers primed to tap the ball in when Pickford inevitably palms it out into the six yards box.

Butland is going and 3 games is unlikely to increase his transfer value is it?

So we are going to watch a World Cup where every single shot at the England goal will be spooned out to the penalty spot by our hapless keeper.

been fair both keepers are way overrated but I think butland is the better of the two.

If Pickford starts as number one I’ll give it 2 games max before he’s replaced....

If this is true and Southgate finds out before the official announcement (if there is to be one, which I doubt), then maybe Jordan won't be number 1. Southgate is picking the team so I’d imagine he doesn’t have to find out.

Southgate is picking the team so I’d imagine he doesn’t have to find out. Think he means Southgate won’t be very happy with Pickford for telling people before an official announcement.

I don't think anybody can say Butland deserves to be starting in the World Cup. It hasn't been his best year.
Good luck to whoever gets picked though.

If the WC was last summer Butland would have been an easy pick but he's had a poor season. Pickford as number one makes sense.
