England has named their 23-man squad for their upcoming friendly against Sweden. Everton’s midfielder Leon Osman has got called up for the first time, while Jack Wilshere — fresh from his injury — is also named, in addition to Liverpool’s Jonjo Shelvey and Raheem Sterling.
Before we get to the Premier League news headlines of the day, I want to commend how brilliant the Glasgow Celtic supporters were yesterday during their match against Barcelona. They really put the club supporters in England to shame. There wasn’t the carbon-copy songs that the Premier League supporters sing. Nor were there 20,000-65,000 fans sitting on the bums during the entire match. Congratulations to Celtic on the win. But congratulations to their supporters for putting on a wonderful display that is sadly lacking in England.
