Roy Keane

I was speaking to Kyle Walker the other day and I said to him, it's a strange time to retire because in your position, Rhys James, Trippier, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Joe Gomez, lads that maybe would play, they're all susceptible to injuries.

They could all go down.

You could end up being back in.

Yeah, but he wants to be out.

No, my point, I know, he wants to control.

I know he said that.

You've got to try and see... No, but I think he's got... I think he feels he's being... He has some clear promo.

I think Kyle feels like he should probably, you know, I think he feels like he's done enough to continue to keep his place in the squad.

Probably, but I think still, those lads do get injured at full-back for England.

They do get injured.

There's not really a consistent... Kieran's had a lot of injuries.

Rhys James, obviously, has had a lot of injuries, but he's fit at the moment.

Exactly, yeah.

so listen I think if Thomas Tuchel wants him but would a player like Walker be happy would he be happy to go over there and be on the bench for every game I think he would you think he would yeah I don't think he'd expect to start I don't think he's that I mean look to be fair I did that a couple of times under Capello I wasn't one of them I always felt with England that it wasn't my job to retire I should be retired they should not pick me you don't get picked at the beginning then you get picked you might get picked and not picked during the career and then you don't get picked at the end that's it that's it

But others, you know, lads who I've absolutely loved to bits, who have been unbelievable players for England, retired and chose their own moment.

They said, no, I want to know what I'm doing.

They couldn't, the idea of, am I in this squad, am I not in this squad, am I going to be, they didn't like it.

We had Kyle in when we were obviously with Roy.

I think you obviously played with Kyle and you didn't play every single game with us because we had Glenn Johnson and he was actually subbed.

In the tournament, right.
