Sell on percentage has been widely discussed, but I wonder what (if anything) we're owed if he makes an appearance for England? The way this is going we should name the new training complex after him!

An England Appearance Clause often depends if it’s ‘Competitive’ or ‘Friendly’ - Hopefully the latter, get a call-up for the matches end of March, then get the big move in the Summer… 😀

Surely Southgate has to select him in the squad at least for this months friendlies?! Think the first one is against Brazil so that would be some test if they chuck him in as a starter!

Southgate seems scared of picking him.
Maybe it is because if he shines then there will be no way back for some of the old guard and he is not ready for this.

Southgate won't drop Maguire even though he is older and even more slower now and prone to making mistakes. Branthwaite is superior to Maguire in everything but experience but he is a left footed centre back whereas Maguire is only right footed but always gets played on the left side. And I would fancy Branthwaite who is far better technically to defend better against the top Euro nations like France and Spain than Maguire who just isn't cut out for it. But like all England managers he will pick older players just to remain 'loyal' to them even though there are new better options. It's the same old story. He'll take Jordan Henderson too.

If the public get on-side with Branthwaite and he didn't pick him then folk would say that he doesn't know what he is doing.

I remember there being an outcry when Sven Goran Erikson once took an injured Wayne Rooney, unfit Michael Owen and an unproven 17 year old Walcott to a World Cup leaving an inform Defoe at home. And guess what? We barely score and were such a let down.
