United players in world cup squads

[programmechap]

Think we've had 10

1954 Burgin England
1958 Hodgkinson England
1962 Hodgkinson England
1994 Flo, Nilsen Norway
Kelly Ireland
2002 Suffo Cameroon
2022 Davies Wales
Ndiaye Senegal
2026 Chong Curacao

Only Flo, Suffo and Ndiaye actually played but Chong will probably add to that.

In other ex-Blades, Dean Henderson... sadly he's second choice behind Pickford

3. Auston Trusty
4. Tahith Chong
5. Anis Ben Slimane
6. Tyler Bindon
7. Sander Berge

No spaces for Anel (retired from INT), Beni Traore or Daniel Jebbison

I meant players at the WC whilst with United. Theres a whole separate thread on players there who at any time played for United. Off the top of my head

Martin Peters
Peter Withe
Phil Thompson
Phil Jagielka
Kyle Walker
Len Allchurch
Gary Cahill
David Carney
Jimmy Johnstone
Bobby Campbell
David Kelly

Must be loads more.

Jan Fjortoft another one

I "think" the OP meant players who played for us while a World Cup was in progress? Happy to be corrected. There hasn't been many.

Wasn’t Ramsdale still our player at the last World Cup?

Bindon and Kalvin Phillips if we are classing loan signings as ones, especially as Cahill was a loan signing

Paul McGrath
Bruce Rioch

Also a couple of managers: one of my favourite facts. Alex Sabella and George Raynor have both:

Managed a team that lost the World Cup Final
Played for the Blades in the County Cup

 

[CrookesBlade]

Euro 2020/1. Think he went on his one man strike after that.

Ethan Ampadu and Kieffer Moore both played against England at Qatar 2022.

Jimmy Johnstone was there in 1974 but never played.

Ditto Withe and Campbell in 82.

 

[Silent Blade]

Bobby Campbell? Forgot about him in the Northern Ireland squad

I have it says united players in world cup squads i must be missing the bit that says players that once played for Sheffield united at some point in their career and at some point have been in a world cup squad regardless of who they played for at the time or when in their career they represented united , I understand ndiaye played for united and played in the world cup but he doesn't now , so the only united player in a world cup squad is Chong for Curacao to say players that played for united 15 years after playing in a world cup as someone else's player is as ludicrous as saying that Gus hamer is a current premier League player for Coventry, because he played for them and they are in the premier League
