Eight players were replaced
Eight players who had been called up had to be replaced because injuries interrupted the England national team’s preparations.
In League B of the 2024–2025 UEFA Nations League, England will play two more games.
On November 14, the Three Lions Team will travel to Athens to play Greece in Group 2.
Ireland is being hosted in London by Harry Kane and company three days later.
England is currently in second place in the Group 2 standings.
With nine points from four games, the runners-up from EURO 2020 and EURO 2024 trail Greece by three points at the top of the standings.
On Friday, August 11, 2024, interim coach Lee Carsley called up the team to play important games this month.
Goalkeepers: Aaron Ramsdale (Southampton), Jordan Pickford (Everton), and Dean Henderson (Crystal Palace)
Defenders: Taylor Harwood-Bellis (Southampton), Ezri Konsa (Aston Villa), Rico Lewis (Manchester City), Levi Colwill (Chelsea), Marc Guehi (Crystal Palace), Trent Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool), Lewis Hall (Newcastle United), and Kyle Walker (Manchester City)
Eight players were replaced and six debutants were called up as the England national team was decimated by injuries.
Midfielders: Morgan Gibbs-White (Nottingham Forest), Angel Gomes (Lille), Jude Bellingham (Real Madrid), Phil Foden (Manchester City), Conor Gallagher (Atletico Madrid), Curtis Jones (Liverpool), Cole Palmer (Chelsea), and Declan Rice (Arsenal)
Forwards: Harry Kane (Bayern), Dominic Solanke (Tottenham Hotspur), Bukayo Saka (Arsenal), Jack Grealish (Manchester City), Anthony Gordon (Newcastle United), and Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa)
But England’s Carrington training camp was beset by injury.
This injury storm has affected every position, from attackers to goalkeepers.
Carsley had to send eight players back to their clubs.
Regretfully, a large number of them are dependable players.
