In Thomas Tuchel’s eyes, all his England goalkeepers are equal.
‘These are the four we think we can build our squad on,’ said Tuchel at his squad unveiling on Friday. ‘Straight away, we want to give the message that it is a new start for everyone.’
He will soon come to decide which one is more equal than the others. Managers always do.
Everton’s Jordan Pickford, Southampton’s Aaron Ramsdale, Crystal Palace’s Dean Henderson and James Trafford, of Championship side Burnley, are the quartet who will battle it out to be England’s No 1 for when the World Cup rolls around next year.
