England World Cup squad predicted: Gareth Southgate's expected 26 players

Gareth Southgate is set to announce his 26-man England squad ahead at 2pm on Thursday ahead of the final Premier League fixtures before the scheduled break. The manager has had a difficult choice to make both because of the quality of the options available to him but also because of injuries.

He will choose these names from the provisional 55-man squad he collated a few weeks ago, but unlike some other associations, Southgate chose not to release the list to the public. But we can make assumptions about who will be part of the team based off past squads.

Manchester United and Manchester City will be well represented as expected. But other teams will and should have their own representatives in the squad.
