Goalkeepers
IMO Southgate regards Pickford as no 1 GK so will stay in the squad.
But Butland at Stoke (now in Championship) is in poor form, Pope dislocated his shoulder.
So :
IMO, Southgate will bring in Angus Gunn to take a detailed look at him in place of Pope. But Gunn now at Southampton has limited experience of club football at senior levels
He could go back to Joe Hart, but I doubt it until Hart has had a good club run. Ditto Tom Heaton (and of course Pope, Hart and Heaton are all at Burnley)
Will he call up Alex McCarthy at Southampton who Southgate has allegedly looked at.?
What other decent options are there in PL (or even Championship) ?
