The England squad is one of the boldest at Euro 2024, and arguably in the history of the national team. Southgate has [jettisoned half the squad from the 2022 World Cup](~/AAAHagA~/RgRoRW2dP0TeaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaW5kZXBlbmRlbnQuY28udWsvc3BvcnQvZm9vdGJhbGwvZW5nbGFuZC1ldXJvLTIwMjQtc3F1YWQtcHJlZGljdGlvbi1iMjU1ODQ3My5odG1sP2xpZD1zNHA1eGN2eG52NnkmdXRtX21lZGl1bT1lbWFpbCZ1dG1fc291cmNlPWJyYXplJnV0bV9jYW1wYWlnbj1SZWFkaW5nIHRoZSBHYW1lIE5ld3NsZXR0ZXIgMDctMDYtMjAyNCZ1dG1fdGVybT1JTkRfRm9vdGJhbGxfQ0RQVwVzcGNldUIKZlGd6GJmYtxQjVIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAMj) - which, remember, took place a mere 18 months ago - and given 12 players their first ever tournament call-ups. It is a strident selection, and one most costly for the break-out star of the last Euros. How Jack Grealish’s situation has changed from the time when fans were clamouring for his introduction. The playmaker had a comparatively muted campaign last season, although the England players were still shocked at his exclusion. It genuinely took most by surprise, and was the main talking point throughout the day. That took some attention from many of the players who would have been surprised to get a call-up as recently as December, not least Adam Wharton. Southgate’s plans may go further than just including him in the squad, though. There have been murmurs that the manager actually believes he may be worth a starting place, as the midfield counter-weight alongside Declan Rice. That only speaks to how bold this squad really is. [The midfield line-up, however, will show](~/AAAHagA~/RgRoRW2dP0T2aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaW5kZXBlbmRlbnQuY28udWsvc3BvcnQvZm9vdGJhbGwvZW5nbGFuZC1taWRmaWVsZC1hbGV4YW5kZXItYXJub2xkLXdoYXJ0b24tbWFpbm9vLWdhbGxhZ2hlci1iMjU1NjQwNi5odG1sP2xpZD1iMDF1enNxOXFreG0mdXRtX21lZGl1bT1lbWFpbCZ1dG1fc291cmNlPWJyYXplJnV0bV9jYW1wYWlnbj1SZWFkaW5nIHRoZSBHYW1lIE5ld3NsZXR0ZXIgMDctMDYtMjAyNCZ1dG1fdGVybT1JTkRfRm9vdGJhbGxfQ0RQVwVzcGNldUIKZlGd6GJmYtxQjVIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAMj) whether Southgate has become has bold in actual tactics as selection.

Many around the German camp, for one, were stunned. They see Grealish as a player who provokes fear in opposition when he runs at them, and don’t necessarily feel the same way about Eberechi Eze… yet. Some of this ultimately comes back to Southgate’s wider points about reputation and form. Despite his reputation, he has generally leaned towards the latter. The feeling is that [Eze can do real damage](~/AAAHagA~/RgRoRW2dP0TnaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaW5kZXBlbmRlbnQuY28udWsvc3BvcnQvZm9vdGJhbGwvZW5nbGFuZC1ib3NuaWEtcmVzdWx0LWNvbGUtcGFsbWVyLWV1cm8tMjAyNC1iMjU1NjA0Ny5odG1sP2xpZD1seThhNzhucXVrdXUmdXRtX21lZGl1bT1lbWFpbCZ1dG1fc291cmNlPWJyYXplJnV0bV9jYW1wYWlnbj1SZWFkaW5nIHRoZSBHYW1lIE5ld3NsZXR0ZXIgMDctMDYtMjAyNCZ1dG1fdGVybT1JTkRfRm9vdGJhbGxfQ0RQVwVzcGNldUIKZlGd6GJmYtxQjVIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAMj) - he also has the long shot that Grealish doesn’t. Southgate’s picks are still widely viewed as a reflection of England’s immense strength in depth, especially in attack. The hosts don’t have anything like that. They do have a first XI that is beginning to fit into an ideology, though. Optimism around Germany is growing. That reflects how, in the last few weeks before these Euros, it has suddenly gone from a feeling of France and England being outstanding favourites to a much wider field and more open tournament… Club football still dictates the agenda It’s difficult not to feel that one of the reasons there has been a more muted build-up to Euro 2024 is because the club game just refuses to recede. Even this week, where there were obviously no games, there were stories that could have huge significance for seasons. The biggest is obviously [Manchester City taking legal action against the Premier League](~/AAAHagA~/RgRoRW2dP0TraHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaW5kZXBlbmRlbnQuY28udWsvc3BvcnQvZm9vdGJhbGwvbWFuY2hlc3Rlci1jaXR5LXByZW1pZXItbGVhZ3VlLWxlZ2FsLWFjdGlvbi1hcHQtYjI1NTcyNDMuaHRtbD9saWQ9M2dkcHJuZnVnbDFzJnV0bV9tZWRpdW09ZW1haWwmdXRtX3NvdXJjZT1icmF6ZSZ1dG1fY2FtcGFpZ249UmVhZGluZyB0aGUgR2FtZSBOZXdzbGV0dGVyIDA3LTA2LTIwMjQmdXRtX3Rlcm09SU5EX0Zvb3RiYWxsX0NEUFcFc3BjZXVCCmZRnehiZmLcUI1SG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAADIw~~)for new Associated Party Transaction [APT] rules, which mean any commercial deal with a related party has to go to an independent panel to determine if it is of “fair market value”. That has been accompanied by the allegation that this is discrimination against Gulf ownership. The reality is that this entire story really just reflects the multiple extra complications that come with state or state-linked ownership. The new regulations were only put in place because of the access to such sponsorships that Manchester City and Newcastle United have, how difficult it is to regulate that from states when there are such blurred lines in terms of separation. City’s legal challenge has meanwhile only come [because the ownership have the means and will to do it](~/AAAHagA~/RgRoRW2dP0ThaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaW5kZXBlbmRlbnQuY28udWsvc3BvcnQvZm9vdGJhbGwvbWFuLWNpdHktZmluYW5jZXMta2hhbGRvb24tYWwtbXViYXJhay1iMjU1ODE0My5odG1sP2xpZD04bTY1b2ppYzRuMW4mdXRtX21lZGl1bT1lbWFpbCZ1dG1fc291cmNlPWJyYXplJnV0bV9jYW1wYWlnbj1SZWFkaW5nIHRoZSBHYW1lIE5ld3NsZXR0ZXIgMDctMDYtMjAyNCZ1dG1fdGVybT1JTkRfRm9vdGJhbGxfQ0RQVwVzcGNldUIKZlGd6GJmYtxQjVIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAMj). Any football regulation can after all be challenged in court. It is hugely expensive and time-consuming, however, while there is a generally a tacit acceptance not to do this because of an acknowledgement that - as with referees - the game needs some sort of top-down order to keep a unified structure and ensure the system works. This is even more pronounced in the Premier League since it is merely a members club where they are all shareholders in partnership, and the very agreement signed involves the acceptance of the decision-making voting process. Something like this, however, was always the threat when the same Premier League let in ownership types of greater and greater scale. It was only the biggest controversy of the week. There was also Wolves' attempt to get discussion going on VAR at the Premier League AGM. There was some [surprise at how resoundingly their motion to abolish it was defeated](~/AAAHagA~/RgRoRW2dP0TaaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaW5kZXBlbmRlbnQuY28udWsvc3BvcnQvZm9vdGJhbGwvdmFyLXByZW1pZXItbGVhZ3VlLXZvdGUtd29sdmVzLWIyNTU4MDE4Lmh0bWw_bGlkPWl5d2F1eWpzanl1dyZ1dG1fbWVkaXVtPWVtYWlsJnV0bV9zb3VyY2U9YnJhemUmdXRtX2NhbXBhaWduPVJlYWRpbmcgdGhlIEdhbWUgTmV3c2xldHRlciAwNy0wNi0yMDI0JnV0bV90ZXJtPUlORF9Gb290YmFsbF9DRFBXBXNwY2V1QgpmUZ3oYmZi3FCNUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAyM~), at 19-1, but those numbers don’t reveal the fact there was sympathy for their view. The wider intention is to have a bigger debate about the subject. For all that the Times’ report of the City case made this AGM rather interesting timing, it didn’t really bring that debate into the open. Most the murmurs and grumbles remained whispered in corners. There were plenty of private comments, though. Southgate influencing someone else's big decision... It is meanwhile Southgate’s insistence on focusing on the international game that has, at least in part, left one of the biggest stories from the club season unresolved. Manchester United [have still not made a decision on Erik ten Hag](~/AAAHagA~/RgRoRW2dP0TgaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaW5kZXBlbmRlbnQuY28udWsvc3BvcnQvZm9vdGJhbGwvZXJpay10ZW4taGFnLW1hbmFnZXItbmV3cy1tYW4tdW5pdGVkLWIyNTUyNTQ2Lmh0bWw_bGlkPXB3cjVyYTJ6NjF5byZ1dG1fbWVkaXVtPWVtYWlsJnV0bV9zb3VyY2U9YnJhemUmdXRtX2NhbXBhaWduPVJlYWRpbmcgdGhlIEdhbWUgTmV3c2xldHRlciAwNy0wNi0yMDI0JnV0bV90ZXJtPUlORF9Gb290YmFsbF9DRFBXBXNwY2V1QgpmUZ3oYmZi3FCNUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAyM~), and are not going to rush one. Some of that is down to the fact the new INEOS hierarchy have long identified Southgate as the top target, because they feel he is best to lead a proper cultural reset, in the way he really did with England. The problem for United is one of virtue, since Southgate is so committed to seeing this job with England through properly that he doesn’t even want the distraction of approaches until after Euro 2024. There is a belief among the United hierarchy that Southgate would take the job, but they’ll just have to wait for proper confirmation. The[club have naturally pursued other options](~/AAAHagA~/RgRoRW2dP0TraHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaW5kZXBlbmRlbnQuY28udWsvc3BvcnQvZm9vdGJhbGwvZXJpay10ZW4taGFnLWZ1dHVyZS1tYW5jaGVzdGVyLXVuaXRlZC1yYXRjbGlmZmUtYjI1NTE2OTQuaHRtbD9saWQ9bW10dm45enAxOWFuJnV0bV9tZWRpdW09ZW1haWwmdXRtX3NvdXJjZT1icmF6ZSZ1dG1fY2FtcGFpZ249UmVhZGluZyB0aGUgR2FtZSBOZXdzbGV0dGVyIDA3LTA2LTIwMjQmdXRtX3Rlcm09SU5EX0Zvb3RiYWxsX0NEUFcFc3BjZXVCCmZRnehiZmLcUI1SG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAADIw~~), especially Thomas Frank, Mauricio Pochettino, Roberto De Zerbi and Thomas Tuchel. Although Frank has made an impression and there is long-standing interest in Pochettino, none have fully persuaded United to decisively make a change yet. Tuchel has meanwhile fallen down the list of preferences. It all means Ten Hag perseveres for the moment, the FA Cup victory and European qualification offering another complication. He wants clarity but, as is the story of this summer, United aren’t going to be rushed.   Top football features ~/AAAHagA~/RgRoRW2dP0TmaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaW5kZXBlbmRlbnQuY28udWsvc3BvcnQvZm9vdGJhbGwvZW56by1tYXJlc2NhLW5ldy1jaGVsc2VhLW1hbmFnZXItbGVpY2VzdGVyLWIyNTU1Nzg3Lmh0bWw_bGlkPXRteGR0ZGswOXoxNiZ1dG1fbWVkaXVtPWVtYWlsJnV0bV9zb3VyY2U9YnJhemUmdXRtX2NhbXBhaWduPVJlYWRpbmcgdGhlIEdhbWUgTmV3c2xldHRlciAwNy0wNi0yMDI0JnV0bV90ZXJtPUlORF9Gb290YmFsbF9DRFBXBXNwY2V1QgpmUZ3oYmZi3FCNUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAyM~ [Who is Enzo Maresca?

He has been one of the camp's bigger characters, a nice and funny guy who is friends with everyone. That could be felt at the temporary England base on Thursday, when press gathered for the press conference ahead of the Iceland match at Tottenham Hotspur's base. Declan Rice - now one of the squad's senior figures - was up to speak and raved about his colleague. Southgate is conscious of that and felt he had to rally the squad and staff together after all the press duties following the squad announcement were fulfilled.

Flesch reading score

Flesch reading score measures how complex a text is. The lower the score, the more difficult the text is to read. The Flesch readability score uses the average length of your sentences (measured by the number of words) and the average number of syllables per word in an equation to calculate the reading ease. Text with a very high Flesch reading ease score (about 100) is straightforward and easy to read, with short sentences and no words of more than two syllables. Usually, a reading ease score of 60-70 is considered acceptable/normal for web copy.
