Please, no.
Yes, that's what we did.
Obviously, I wasn't full time, so every two to three weeks we had meetings.
Gareth and Steve were like every week with the staff behind
the scene, the analysts and all the other boys to talk about who's injured, who is available, where are they with the injury, because every manager has got
an idea of who he wants to take.
And that changes, obviously, every time with injuries and availabilities.
Yeah, you would...
every time talk about something specific yeah at the end for instance you would look at the penalties for instance before that you would maybe look at at at the 26 you would always talk about
to 26, you would always touch up on certain individuals and the form of them and how they are playing and where they are in their fitness and all that kind of stuff.
Well, everybody's going to have that core, haven't they?
Yeah.
of the squad and everybody has got their idea who they want to pick and how they want to play and how they're seeing it going forward.
Everybody has, well, the manager will have that.
And there are always some positions that are open and people are still fighting for that place.
The closer you come to the tournament starting, the less that opportunity is and the quicker that decision is made.
But you make a decision first of all, how you're going to play.
With the last European Championship, it was a 4-3-3 or a 4-2-1-3 or however you call it.
He has his core of players that he definitely is going to want to take.
If they are available and they are fit, majority of the time, 20 of those 26, they're already picked.
