BBC Sport's McNulty picks his England World Cup squad - do you agree?.

 

England concluded the so-called 'Send-Off Series' before the World Cup with defeat against Japan at Wembley.

Head coach Thomas Tuchel named a split 35-man squad for the friendlies against Uruguay and Japan to get a close-up look at his wider England options.

He must whittle that number down to 26 as England accelerate planning for their opening World Cup game against Croatia on 17 June in Arlington, Texas.

Tuchel will digest the food for thought that England's friendlies have given him as he finalises his plans.

He will then make his picks - but for now this is my 26-man England squad to take to the World Cup.

GOALKEEPERS: Jordan Pickford, Dean Henderson, James Trafford.

DEFENDERS: Reece James, Ezri Konsa, Marc Guehi, Tino Livramento, John Stones, Harry Maguire, Nico O'Reilly, Lewis Hall.

MIDFIELD: Jude Bellingham, Elliot Anderson, Morgan Rogers, Declan Rice, Adam Wharton, Kobbie Mainoo.

FORWARDS: Harry Kane, Marcus Rashford, Anthony Gordon, Bukayo Saka, Noni Madueke, Eberechi Eze, Cole Palmer, Danny Welbeck, Jarrod Bowen.
