Biggest Euro 2020 snubs
Posted on 6/5/21 at 11:23 am
Posted on 6/5/21 at 11:23 am
Who am I missing?
Sergio Ramos
Trent Alexander-Arnold
Julian Draxler
Marco Reus
Cenk Tosun (relative to his national team, not overall profile)
Saul
ter Stegen (even if only as a third stringer, I guess)
Not including injured players like Virgil van Dijk or Dani Carvajal, big-name players who are just not up to par right now (Dele Alli, Kepa) or anyone who retired from international soccer.
Overall not a lot of big snubs, right? Really only the first two guys stick out to me.

edit: Seriously though, he made the squad, but dropped out earlier this week when he injured his thigh..
Sergio Ramos may fall into your list...

I think Ter Stegen made the decision on his own to skip the Euros or else he would've been the backup to Neuer.

Bamford
Wan Bissaka
Harrison
Robson Kanu (euro 2016 GOAT)
Spain should’ve called up Rodrigo. Dude was flying the last month of the season

He was on the 33 man list but on the outside looking in on the cut from 33 to 26
Trippier, Walker, Shaw, Chilwell, and Reece James were all ahead of him on the list according to media reports.

That's incorrect... there was speculation he wouldn't make it, but he did... again, he just dropped due to his injury earlier in the week..

Ah I must have missed that, thanks.
So they added Grealish back?

Grealish was in, I think one of White, Godfrey or ward-prowse probably gets Trent’s spot

Reus pulled himself out

That’s Lord Bamford to you, now that he can score.

You are correct
The days of having 3-4 out and out strikers in every squad are gone. Now wingers and attacking midfielders help comprise the “forward” group

What Klinnsman did to Landycakes was a snub.
Not sure I’ve seen anything of a similar sort for euros. With teams as talented as those in Europe, there are bound to be “names” that don’t make the final rosters for many reasons.
I think someone had beef with Deschamps in the past resulting in some sort of snub but that’s all I can think of.
Lots of really good players in Europe, they can’t all go.

I’m sure Laporte is miffed to miss out on the France squad. Is Lenglet really better than him? Probably more of a form thing. Umtiti also didn’t make it and was a starter for the World Cup winning team just three years ago. Then again he only played 13 games for Barcelona in the league this year.

He’s gonna play for Spain and probably start

I think Deschamps just hates him.
He never gets called up if I remember correctly.

Damn I didn’t even realize this

He has zero caps for France and about a month ago it was pretty clear he wasn’t going to be called up especially bc his lack of playing time this year. So he made the switch.

Correct. Deschamps and him didn’t get along. Happy to see him go with Spain.
Spain also didn’t even take a full team. They cut Ramos and just left like 3 roster spots not filled lmao

Dumb not to take Ramos
But he’s been in an out with a injury
It’s definitely bc the Barca v Madrid rivalry
