To think there not really a good looking player in the squad?

And to like it?

Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with any of them but they look like the lads you went to school with, not fashion models.

Can't help thinking there's a link to the better performance. More hard effort and less time in front of the mirror? More teamwork and less self absorption?

Jesse Lingard is hot.
Has anyone noticed that ‘Harry Kane’ sounds like ‘hurricane’?

Is the barber thing about vanity though? Think about it they're achieving stuff that will be replayed on tv screens for years to come....

I agree they should look well groomed, since they're representing their country. And they're travelling very long distances to matches in different locations. Probably easier to take their own barber, who can give a trim whenever required, than have to hunt someone up at short notice.

3 barbers flown in actually. That's just for the England team

It"s refreshing to see that Gareth Southgate has picked a younger team. Hopefully it will pay off. None of them are in the limelight yet, let's hope it stays that way. I'm not so sure though.....and then it all goes wrong!

I also agree that Stones looks like Tommy Shelby @caveywavey

The goalkeeper appears to be 14 years old.

Average age of the 2014 England squad was 26.... average age of 2018 squad is just over 26

They aren't a younger team

Has anyone noticed that Maguire looks like a young Paul Heaton

I hadn't- if he has half the career and is as remembered as one of our greatest songwriters, he should be very pleased.

Not specifically, but I have been saying that, appearance wise, he looks more like he should be in, say, Mumford and Sons than in a football team.

Sorry, but I’m more a fan of Gareth Southgate.

Man alive, what i would do to him...
