Will Bamford be in the England euros squad?

England all of sudden have options in that position.

He has had a brilliant season and deserves his chance.

It is just such a shame that Vardy has retired as he is leathal.
 
I would like to see him given a fair chance. The midfield possibilities from English players having a good season suggest that he'd have better service than he does at Leeds.
 
Think Vardy might be coming towards the end of his lethal-ness now as he’s picking up a few concurrent injuries.

Danny Ings was ahead of Bamford for me recently but he’s tailed off massively along with Southampton’s form.

For me it’s:

Kane
Rashford
Calvert Lewin
Bamford (if we need a 4th which I’m not sure we will)
 
I think there's a limited number of places for strikers and I think Calvert-Lewin will edge him out.

They've scored the same number of goals, but C-L has done it with fewer shots (50 to PB's 69). That PB gets more chances is probably a reflection of Leeds' style of play.
I also think C-L can be seen as one for the future if he's Kane's understudy. We think of Bamford as a young player, but he's 27 now.

One or the other could have a really strong end to the season and tilt it in their favour. Alternatively GS might take them both, but I think that's unlikely. PB isn't a bad choice, but for me he's still behind DCL.
 
It's great that he's even been mentioned for a call-up, pleased for him, but unless there's and injury or two I can't seen it.

More so given England are blessed with so many creative midfielders, which may mean we take one less striker.
 
I don't know about the Euros squad, but I actually think he's nailed on for a call up for the qualifiers this month, both Ings and Abraham are injured.
He's surely the best remaining candidate for third choice behind Kane and Calvert-Lewin.

Unless Southgate favours Ollie Watkins.
 
I think Kane, Rashford and Calvert Lewis will go.

With one more place available, and will be between Bamford, Ings and Abraham.

Don’t think Tuchel is playing Abraham much so probs got a 50-50 chance, fancy Ings to pip him though.
 
He deserves a shot in the next games, he's proven he is a prem quality striker, and he is on form, so why not?

I think he was on form earlier in the season.

3 goals in 12 since the turn of the year isn't a disaster, but I'm not sure it's enough to force him into the squad if he's not in it already.
 
Ollie Watkins gets the nod instead.

Bamford hasn't got a chance if he's not making it with all these Injuries.

Rashford has only got 4 since the turn of the year. Not saying he would get in before Rashford just saying its not just about goals.
