On June 2 in Beijing, UEFA officially announced that there will be 24 teams competing in the upcoming UEFA Europa League, with each team being allowed to register 26 players, while the number of places for a single tournament is still limited to 23 people. Despite the fact that this year's quota has been increased compared to the past, many stars have not been able to participate in this soccer feast for various reasons. Harland, who is worth 110 million euros, ranked seventh among the Ballon d'Or candidates, while Spanish coach Enrique sparked controversy by abandoning a number of stars, with a total of 20 superstars failing to make the cut, according to statistics.
1. The national team is not strong enough! Bundesliga's best, La Liga goalkeeper sorry to miss Europa League
Known as the future of the top striker of the Norwegian shooter Harland, this season in the Bundesliga 28 games scored 27 goals and 6 assists, the Champions League 8 games scored 10 goals, leading the team to qualify for the Champions League, won the German Cup title, and personally won the Bundesliga best player, the strength of the impressive. However, the Norwegian national team in which he plays lost in the Euro Cup play-offs, and did not qualify for this year's Euro Cup, and fans will not be able to witness the battle between Harland and Mbappe in this summer's Euro Cup.
Oblak, the goalkeeper who just won the La Liga title with Atletico Madrid, also missed the Euro because Slovenia failed to advance. In addition, Serbian midfield superstar Milinkovic, Bosnia and Herzegovina's Pjanic, Dzeko, as well as our fans are familiar with Israel's goal scorer Zahavi, are all sorry to miss this year's Euro because their respective national teams failed to advance to the final round.
2. Injuries plagued them and they had no choice but to say goodbye!
If the European Cup had been held as scheduled last year, the Dutch team with Van Dijk would have been the favorite to win the title. However, Van Dijk regretted to say goodbye due to injury, and at the age of 30, he does not know when he will be able to lead the national team to hit the trophy in the World Championship again, which has to be said to be a pity.
And just returned to the national team, 39-year-old Ibu, also became the oldest international footballer in the history of the Swedish team. However, he once again suffered an injury attack before the European Cup, sorry to say goodbye to the European Cup, without Ibu's Swedish team, lost their own spiritual pillar, the attention will also drop dramatically.
Also important players who missed the Euros due to injury were England star Greenwood and Germany goalkeeper Ter Stegen.
3. Competition is fierce and they have no choice but to give up!
In the hearts of our fans, Lingard is not only super-popular, but he also delivered a convincing performance in the past season: in the past four months, Lingard, who came to West Ham from Manchester United, played a total of 16 matches scoring 9 goals and 4 assists. He is second only to Kane, the Premier League Golden Boot winner, in terms of goals scored, and was also named Premier League Player of the Month for April. However, he still fell out of the final England team list, only because the current England team players in the same position are too strong, midfielders such as Henderson, Mount, Bellingham, Rice, and Gralish did not leave more space for him.
Also dropping out due to positional issues were England stars Vardy and Wambisaica, with Kane and Rashford leading a young England forward line that saw veteran Vardy automatically withdrawn from the national team, leaving the opportunity for the youngsters. With Walker, Arnold, Reece James and a host of other right backs, Wambisaka, who plays a starring role at Manchester United, could only sigh in helplessness.
The person who is most troubled would be England manager Southgate, wonderful trouble, making him the most stressed person as well, after all, there are already fans shouting, "If you don't bring King Lam, Great Britain is going to die."
4. Controversial choice of head coach, several superstars fall out of favor
The selection of players is decided by the manager. This year's European Cup Spain's lineup is the most surprising, this list does not have a Real Madrid player, which is the first time in the history of Spanish soccer. What is even more puzzling is that, affected by the epidemic, this year's Euro squad can be expanded from 23 to 26 people, but Enrique gave up two places, only with 24 people. Rather give up two places than a Real Madrid player!
If Ramos was selected due to the previous period due to injury missed too many games affecting the state, the defense oil Nacho's selection is more controversial, after all, as a backfield versatile player in the case of Real Madrid's lack of troops this season still won the league runner-up, the credit is not enough. Real Madrid players also lost Isco, Carvajal, Asensio.
In addition to the controversy of the Real Madrid players, Atletico Madrid player Saúl's fall from the list has also become the focus of attention, in his golden age, he won the La Liga title with the team, the fall from the Spanish list is also surprising.
Enrique's controversial selection may have to wait for the final results of the Europa League to be judged.
Finally, the number one ranked Belgian team in the world is without the name of previous regular Fellaini in their roster. In response manager Martinez said, "It was really not an easy decision, we all know what Fellaini has brought to the national team and we will always be grateful for his contribution. When you look at the team's performances over the last three years, you see that we are number one in the world and that is due to the players doing a great job and they have done a lot, which is why I don't think it's a little bit fair to have Fellaini back in the national team after three years."
