Shearer picks Wilson over Toney for England amid one ‘concern’; Maddison should ‘definitely’ goAlan Shearer has picked his 26-man England squad for the World Cup and he has selected Newcastle United’s Callum Wilson over Brentford’s Ivan Toney.He has several big decisions to make and one of them is which backup strikers to take.
Shearer believes the Leicester man should “definitely” go with the only debate being “whether he starts or not”.“I’d definitely be taking Leicester City’s James Maddison, who is playing exceptionally well and my only debating point would be whether he starts or not — although there’s clearly something Gareth doesn’t fancy about him,”“In attack, I’ve left out Brentford’s Ivan Toney and gone for Tammy Abraham and Callum Wilson.
“Harry Kane remains England’s key player. Gareth will be sitting at a game this weekend with everything crossed that nothing untoward happens to his captain and talisman, who may have been overshadowed by Erling Haaland in the goalscoring charts but is otherwise in fine fettle.
