He's in a rehab clinic working on his fitness - he's not on holiday. I guess he's had COVID-19 tests.

Wasn’t quite the same in the “golden generation” where Scholes Gerrard Lampard (and prob a few others too) were fighting for a couple of places .
TAA could easily have got his rehab in the UK, official Gov policy for travel to Spain is "all but essential travel". TTA and Liverpool will likely justify it as the best rehab is in Marbella.
I say this as a life long Liverpool fan (from Merseyside).
It's still Italy for me though. They could be hurt losing their left back, but they're so well put together in their attacking patterns for an international team with a manager who's only had a short time to do so. Think if it comes down to an Italy v England final we'd really be finding out just how good Rice and Phillips are playing against their midfield and forwards.
Denmark seem solid, team spirit obviously high and looking good. They beat us at Wembley last year so I don’t think it will be easy. But then again England are unbeaten and not let any goals in yet and should be favourites, just. There were no fans at the last game so a home crowd this time will certainly help.
there were rather serious “mistakes” at important times by Shilton (Poland long ago), Carson or Robison (back pass through their legs that bounced off a bump just before he kicked I), Robert Green, Seaman (question - what do Dani and an Elephant have in common ? They can bot(blob semen/Seaman from 30 yards), and I’m sure there are more. I can’t think of any Clemence, or Woods (but I don’t think he played very long)
so in my books Pickford is a very very good keeper for us
Rome sounded like a home game to me.
Apparently, the Germans were supporting England.

Next up is Denmark. The Danes did well playing against attacking teams, I wonder how they will fare against an ultra defensive team like England.
Still, I expect the final will be between Italy and England. When Kane gets goal scoring chances, he scores most of the time. So the obvious strategy is to give Kane goal scoring chances. Sterling could help in this regard as he is quick with the ball at his feet. Alas he tends to be brainless when he reaches the crossing zone. The Italian defence will not let him run through them but he could provide opportunities for Kane. This might be the best way to beat Italy.
Otherwise, win the penalty shootout.
