England fans fume as Tomori snubbed but Maguire included in squad

England fans are fuming after Gareth Southgate snubbed AC Milan star Fikayo Tomori from his World Cup squad but selected out-of-form Manchester United defender Harry Maguire. Southgate named his Three Lions squad on Thursday afternoon and will be looking to guide them to glory in Qatar after leading them to the semi-finals of the tournament in Russia four years ago.Tomori has been in superb form since securing a permanent move from Chelsea to Milan in the summer of 2021 and starred as his team won the Serie A title last season. Maguire, meanwhile, has been dire for the Red Devils since the last campaign and can’t even get in the United team under new manager Erik ten Hag. And England fans aren’t happy with Southgate’s choices.’Embarrassing that certain players go that frankly deserve to be in the Conference League, Slabhead [Maguire] being the main one,’ wrote @returns_mike on Twitter. ‘Embarrassing that he goes.’Meanwhile, @BenjiTheo1991 penned: ‘Not naming @fikayotomori_ in the World Cup squad should be a sackable offence. Takes bang average players but not the one defender who actually plays in Champions League who’s won a league title. What a joke Southgate is.’ And @NFTGuru075 added: ‘Harry Maguire getting called up over Fikayo Tomori is why Southgate will fail once again.’MUST READ: Man Utd team news hint dropped as Ten Hag prepares to make changes Man Utd defender Harry Maguire (right) has been selected over Fikayo Tomori to go to the World Cup (Image: GETTY)Other fans merely took the opportunity to poke fun at Maguire, with @paulhughes2901 writing: ‘Joined in with football at PE last week with my Year 5 class and cleared a couple off the line. Have arguably done as much as Harry Maguire to get in the England squad.’ And @cartelscott joked: ‘Harry Maguire is the perfect centre forward when chasing a game, attacks as he defends.’England have been on a dismal run of form ahead of the World Cup and haven’t tasted victory since they defeated Ivory Coast at Wembley in March. They failed to win any of their six Nations League matches over the summer and autumn, with Southgate coming in for heavy criticism.But after reaching the last four in Russia and making it to the Euro 2020 final three years later, the Three Lions are among the favourites to lift the 2022 trophy.DON’T MISSErling Haaland ‘taking Spanish lessons’ as Real Madrid links persistMan Utd boss Ten Hag handed double injury blow for Aston Villa clash’Harry Kane needs to go to Bayern Munich’ jokes Alan Shearer England boss Gareth Southgate has announced his squad for the World Cup (Image: GETTY)Elsewhere, Kalvin Phillips, Kyle Walker and Conor Gallagher have all been included in Southgate’s squad, despite a lack of match action for their clubs this season. But Ivan Toney was left out after scoring eight goals in 13 Premier League matches for Brentford this season.And @Shanehef said: ‘Southgate knowledge. He brings Callum Wilson but not Ivan Toney – pure clown.’
