Here’s an XI made up from those who made the preliminary selection but got left at home and never ended up going to a World Cup...
, Phil Neville went to three European Championships with the Three Lions but never made the cut for a World Cup squad. The younger Neville missed out in 1998, 2002 and 2006, with his only experience of the tournament coming in 2019, when he coached the women’s team as they reached the semis in France. It’s fair to say they’ve done a little better since his departure though.
By far the most tragic tale of this XI, the Munich air disaster of 1958 robbed Manchester United star Duncan Edwards of his life and England of perhaps its greatest ever talent. The crown jewel of the Busby Babes, Edwards seemed destined to inspire club and country to success, comfortably slotting into the national side at the tender age of 18.
