    According to the Times Kane favours staying in the PL rather than moving to Real Madrid or Bayern Munich ut equally Spurs don’t seem keen on selling him this summer.

    They would for £100 million

    ManU are the obvious place

    It’s seen as unlikely that Man United will be able to afford him because they also need to buy in other positions.

    Clear by the Cl Final line up that Walker is not fully fit. If he gets on as a sub then he will be fit enough for England but if he doesn’t I would think we will hear that he has withdrawn (Probably without replacement.)

    Pep just said he was fit to start and it was tactical.

    In which case I do wonder if he will stay this summer or take the options of abroad or Sheffield United that have been rumoured.

    He's still got a future there. Stop making assumptions

    It’s interesting that Southgate is giving the players in finals more time off when Kehrer won the Conference Leagues on Wednesday and is now with the German squad ready for friendlies. Meanwhile on Friday Southgate will likely have a quite reduced bench for a qualifier.

    If they tried to bring him back straight away they'd almost certainly end up reversing the decision within a week, they'd be insane to try it.

    I'd imagine he'll end up on loan to assess how he even does, more than likely he will never reach his potential anyway.

    Through even then they would have to make sure whatever club hired them didn’t face the same backlash. I’m not entirely sure clubs in Italy or Spain would be controversy free and things could become quite unpredictable.

    I agree but His error in the Nations League and then his 18 months out of the national side still casts a shadow.

    Rio was banned for 8 months after missing a drugs test and Bobby Moore's error in Poland cost us a place at the World Cup in 1974. That's football.

    Stones is probably not in their class just yet, but if he continues to play like this for another 3 or 4 years, then we might be talking differently. He's been immense this season.

    This will help the England team with a winnings mentality

    Pep would be an interesting choice to succeed Southgate. It’s only really us, Portugal, Belgium and Brazil of the big international teams who I think would hire him. Maybe the Netherlands as well. His political views mean he won’t be hired by Spain and I don’t see Italy, France or Germany going non native anytime soon.

    I think he's not there yet, but has every opportunity to make it in the coming years.
    He's cut out the mistakes, and become a top performer, but needs a few more seasons at this level to join the top tier.
    I'd also add Neil Franklin and Roy McFarland to that group.

    Roy McFarland wasn't even the best English centre half at his club, and neither he nor Colin Todd paticularly excelled for the national team.
