norwaysaint Posted 30 April, 2012 Share Posted 30 April, 2012 Always easier to get into a national team when you're playing in the top flight, so who do you think will be called up by this time next year, first cap or adding to their tally. Always seem to be a few new names after a tournament too. Tadanari Lee will probably have raised his chances to get more caps once he's fit and I think Lallana will get a chance too. I also reckon that Kelvin will stand a chance of a call up if he plays well, probably just as a sub, but there's always a need for reliable experienced English keepers. Don't think Cork will get a look in, but maybe in the future, same for Morgan. I think Lambert and Sharp would have to do amazing things to get considered.

doddisalegend Posted 30 April, 2012 Share Posted 30 April, 2012 Hasn't Danny Fox played for Scotland once already? I imagine he'd have more chance than most of playing for his country if that's the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saint.tom.clancy Posted 30 April, 2012 Share Posted 30 April, 2012 Realistically, I think Lallana and Schneiderlin should be in with a shout by the end of next season. I'd hope Lambert could have a shot, at least at a few friendlies - he deserve's it and if he performs next season which we all expect him to, he could do it.

SNSUN Posted 30 April, 2012 Share Posted 30 April, 2012 Jos! Might put a bet on it. Lee is obvious. Morgan, Fonte, Fox and even Bart are outside chances. Three of our new signings will be internationals too though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brussels Saint Posted 30 April, 2012 Share Posted 30 April, 2012 Agree you would hope Fox stands a chance. Morgan for me, I think will be our stand out performer next year and that could easily get him recognised. The French FA have had him on their radar for a long time. Lee obviously has a good chance if he plays regularly which I think he will. Jos might be a good shout, as solid Prem displays will put him in the spotlight. Lallana, unfortunately I think is unlikely to get a call. I hope I'm wrong as he could be sensational, but my gut for some reason tells me its not going to happen. Ah yes and whomever our new RM will be, is going to be an international. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimond Geezer Posted 30 April, 2012 Share Posted 30 April, 2012 I hope Lambo gets at least a friendly or two. If the likes of Nugent can get a cap, just about any championship striker should be entitled to a crack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shurlock Posted 30 April, 2012 Share Posted 30 April, 2012 Barring Lee and any post-Euro acquisition, none will. Fox, the token sweaty, might get a look in as emergency cover if there's an injury in the squad or someone's been done for a drunken hit and run. But that's as good as its going to get. I'd be surprised if Lallana or Lambert ever get a call-up while with us or anyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PortlandSaint Posted 30 April, 2012 Share Posted 30 April, 2012 Not too sure about Rickie! but would love to see it, think about the talk of Grant Holt getting a call-up. If Rickie can get a good start to the season and give some good defence's a bit of grief, then no doubt there will be rumours of a call-up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted 30 April, 2012 Share Posted 30 April, 2012 I'd expect Fox to get a callup for the Scots if he plays regular for us. Lee, obviously. Doubt Lambert will, unless he eclipses the impact Graham and Holt have had. They've scored 14/15 goals and haven't got a look in so far. I'd expect Morgan to get national team recognition after taking the **** in the premier league. I'd say he's probably the most likely one to go on and get international honors.

Sour Mash Posted 30 April, 2012 Share Posted 30 April, 2012 Danny Fox Tadanari Lee Jos Hooiveld and Adam Lallana Hooiveld and Lallana won't be. Other two fairly likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 30 April, 2012 Share Posted 30 April, 2012 I don't think Lambert and Lallana will be considered big enough Charlies to play for England. Maybe if they move to Chelsea for £70k a week, sit on the bench, punch a team mate in a drunken bar fight, **** their team mates girlfriends and some prostitutes and shout racists abuse at some Asian exchange students they might get a look in. Fox and Lee are probably the most likely as their NTs aren't that good. Jos and Fonte I don't think are good enough to get into theirs but with a stormer of a season they could get a call up for a friendly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norwaysaint Posted 30 April, 2012 Author Share Posted 30 April, 2012 If we were talking about right now, I'd agree about a lot of these players standing no chance. But don't forget that after the summer, we will be looking at a new manager trying to build a team that will be ready for a tournament in two years. There are bound to be a few friendlies where a few fringe possibilities are tried out and a few experiments are made, possibly a few of the old guard will be sidelined for a while. I can see Lallana getting a chance over the course of a year if he plays well. I don't think Lambert will be seen as one for the future, but Kelvin could be a decent shout. I don't think Sharp's stock is high enough for anyone to consider him yet. I think it will take longer than that for Cork and Morgan to get on the radar too.

Window Cleaner Posted 30 April, 2012 Share Posted 30 April, 2012 (edited) Didn't the French FA try to convince Morgan to change clubs when we got relegated to League One, or did I imagine that? Nope,they even gave him an ultimatum,went back on it when he was really playing well but it probably cost them their Euro2010 U21 place and Olympic qualification.Then again the French are like that, they equate our League 1 to their National which is sort of semi-pro Blue Square standard.They just can't get their heads round the fact that apart from PSG,Lille,Lyon and Montpellier most of their Logue 1 sides would get their arse kicked week in week out in the NPC, including that heap of shîte down in Marseille. Last Saturday Lyon really struggled to see off a semi-pro side in the French Cup final.Rabid taxation and social charges means that they just can't keep hold of their better players and most sides are full of second rate africans.Still there's always public money for football in France and you can see your favourites for a few quid if you don't mind standing with the rabble.
