My money would be on Gomez in a fight against Sterling.

Some sympathy going around for Sterling, but whatever he did it must have been pretty bad to get thrown out of England camp!

In fairness to him, he had a really good game on Sunday, but thankfully (and very surprisingly) De Bruyne and Aguero were awful.

I have a feeling both teams will drop a higher than usual amount of points between now and early Jan.

If it had been a game against a top team there is no way he would have been thrown out

Still a massive statement to throw him out. A very public admonishment. No attempt to dress it up as something else. It would have been easy to say he's picked up a minor niggle and for Southgate to just privately tell him not to do whatever he did again.

He hasn't been thrown out of the squad. He's still with them. Just been "stood down" for the game on Thursday.

I still dont think it is a big thing to not play him in this game.

England are 1/25 and will win by at least 3 goals - a bigger game and no chance Southgate would have taken the risk

Robertson a doubt for the palace game on Saturday week, ankle injury.

Idiotic from Southgate.

Two young, highly competitive lads in a very significant and emotional game have a brief go at each other and there is minor spillover afterwards. Shocking stuff I tell ye!

Whatever his faults I would have considered Southgate to be fairly level headed. It must have been a major spill over for this to happen.

Whats interesting is that it only seems to have been Sterling disciplined so he must have been well out of line

FA can confirm Raheem Sterling will not be considered for Thursday's EURO 2020 qualifier against Montenegro as a result of a disturbance in a private team area at St. George's Park today,' a statement read. 'He will remain with the squad.'

Sterling had clashed with Gomez towards the end of the dramatic top-of-the-table clash at Anfield which left City lead points behind leaders Liverpool, and the bad blood spilled over yesterday. The City winger is understood to have reacted aggressively after being greeted warmly by Gomez in the players' canteen at St George's Park in front of the rest of the squad, with the Liverpool defender stunned by Sterling's outburst.

Sterling was sat down in the canteen when Gomez arrived and leant over from behind to shake his hand, leading to him to attempt to grab his team-mate by the neck. The rest of the England players initially thought Sterling was joking, but it soon became clear that he had lost control and the pair were separated. The incident was particularly surprising to the other Liverpool players present as Sterling and Gomez had made the peace following the game at Anfield with an embrace following the final whistle. The cause of Sterling's eruption yesterday was unclear, although England sources were speculating last night that he may have reacted badly to being widely lampooned on social media for coming off second-best physically in the initial confrontation with Gomez.

The heated exchange plunged the FA into crisis talks last night, with manager Gareth Southgate giving serious consideration as to whether Sterling should be sent home before opting to drop him for one game. The 24-year-old is England's most creative player and has been spoken of as a future captain because of the leadership skills he has developed over the past few seasons, a notion encouraged by Southgate.

New mark under Gomez's eye

Jamie Carragher has a new podcast show, the episode with Jordan Henderson is well worth a listen.
