List of England national football team World Cup and European Championship squads
The World Cup and European Championship, are the primary competitive tournaments the England national football team enters. The finals of both tournaments held every four years in alternate even numbered years. Excluding the tournament years in which England either did not enter or failed to qualify for the finals, the England national team has nominated the following squads of players to compete in the finals:

Other sources, including FIFA's official World Cup records, list 22 players on the squad and include both Hodgkinson and Setters.
