da doce: Wolverhampton Wanderers captain Conor Coady missed out on a spot in Gareth Southgate’s latest England squad that was announced on Wednesday, and Wolves fans were quick to react on Twitter.
Even though he had never been called up previously, the 26-year-old centre-back looked to be in with a shout this time around having skippered the west Midlands club to seventh in the Premier League following promotion last season, and to the quarter-finals of the FA Cup.
Had Southgate still been playing with a three-at-the-back system – which he did at the 2018 World Cup – then the former Liverpool man may well have been a chance given that is also Nuno Santo’s preferred tactic.
However, the Three Lions boss has chosen a back four in more recent times, and that may well have cost the central defender on this occasion despite his impressive displays and leadership – Burnley’s James Tarkowski got the nod despite his team’s lowly position in the Premier League table.
Wolves supporters took to social media to give their thoughts on the decision, and while one said it was “absolute madness” that Everton’s Michael Keane had made it in ahead of him, another labelled it as the “right decision”.
Here is just a selection of the Twitter reaction…
