Yes, that’s true. As I say it’s Twitter gossip so it may not even be true.I'm guessing vaccination status may be an issue. If there are players who refuse then they probably won't be able to go, so there has to be a contingency plan
Though I think GS could try out some new players. Emile Smith Rowe and Conor Gallagher have been playing really well lately. They were playing in the under 21s recently.
