With the Premier League season all but over, the locals in the Transfer Tavern have turned their attentions to Euro 2016 as excitement emanates from our famous old Tavern.
Three Lions mania is at a fever pitch right now as those in for one of our famous fry ups mull over Roy Hodgson’s announcement this morning.
There are a few surprises with many of the usual suspects included in the squad, with Arsenal’s Theo Walcott perhaps being the most notable exclusion after losing his place in recent months.
Despite suffering relegation with Newcastle United, Andros Townsend has earned a shock recall from proverbial international wilderness and has capitalised on injuries to Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Danny Welbeck.
Midfield duo Jordan Henderson and Jack Wilshere make the cut despite injury problems, with Fabian Delph called up to the squad.
Marcus Rashford has earned himself a call up after his stunning form for Manchester United over the past few months, included as a forward alongside Jamie Vardy, Harry Kane, Wayne Rooney and Daniel Sturridge.

26 names have been announced, with 3 dropping out before the final cut is made in the run up to the tournament.
Is Hodgson right to include Rashford? Who do you think will be the three to drop out?
