Earlier this afternoon England manager Gareth Southgate confirmed his squad for the upcoming March international break and the expected five Tottenham Hotspur men were included.
I’m not sure whether another lull in the fixture list will help or hinder manager Mauricio Pochettino as he looks to move on from our recent wobbles in the league and get us back to ending the season strongly (as there is still plenty to play for).

With consistent injury issues at the club this season, fans will certainly have their own concerns about us picking up more knocks from the international rounds of games and we’ll have close eyes on Dele Alli, Eric Dier, Harry Kane, Danny Rose and Kieran Trippier given the European Championship 2020 qualifiers against Czech Republic and Montenegro as they have each had their own issues this year.
Harry Winks misses out as he nurses himself back to health as well.
With plenty of fans happy to wish them good luck given the pride in representing your country, plenty of fans questioned the selections and the Mike Dean saga hasn’t helped the club v country debates either.
3 are just back from injury.. Poch tell them they have knocks.. The whole of england hates them week in week out constant abuse why should we let them go

Withdraw Kane please and let the FA see if Mike Dean can play up front.

Pull them all out until Mike Dean and the FA disclose what was said to Poch and Perez

Same thing can be said for Diers inclusion as well

All 5 had recent injuries. Why risk them? Give other lads a chance, let these boys build their strength at Spurs and not be burnt out for cup in Summer
