Shame for Clyne, Ward-Prowse & Shaw but their time will come. 3 Saints in an England squad - must be record in the Premier League era for us although no doubt we had more than that in squads going back to the 80's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 7 November, 2013 Share Posted 7 November, 2013 Fantastic! That's all I've got to say. Actually I've got more. How far has this club come whe.

Dr. Kucho Posted 7 November, 2013 Share Posted 7 November, 2013 All 3 well deserved! Gutted for Clyne, but his time will come, as will JWP and Shaw if they continue playing the way they do now. Has the French coach announced his squad yet? Wonder if Morgan will get call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaptopSaint Posted 7 November, 2013 Share Posted 7 November, 2013 Brilliant news for all three of them. Ironic that our great start to the season has been built on rock solid defence and we've struggled a bit to score, but who gives a stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted 7 November, 2013 Share Posted 7 November, 2013 (edited) Plenty of room in that squad for some of our other Englishmen. Johnson, Walker, Cleverly, Milner, Henderson... Plus the few that may need a walking stick by the time we get to Brazil. Bet Woy still plays the old guard through fear of the media. It's great for our lads but I f*cking hate the England setup.

Chewy Posted 7 November, 2013 Share Posted 7 November, 2013 (edited) Great news for the individuals and the club as a whole. Surprised by j-rod's inclusion and clyne's omission, but not too disappointed about jwp and shaw, there time will undoubtedly come and I can't see them figuring in Brazil (unless baines or cole get injured for shaw). Jwp will be involved after Brazil though IMO after Gerard and lampard call it a day if he keeps going as he is. Edited 7 November, 2013 by Chewy Hadn't finished!

MongoNeil Posted 7 November, 2013 Share Posted 7 November, 2013 Absolutely chuffed for the boys, great stuff. I've been saying to all my work colleagues for a while now (since the league 1 days) that we'll have a few players in the England set-up soon, wish I'd had a few bets now :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Posted 7 November, 2013 Share Posted 7 November, 2013 Brilliant news! Very exciting - wasn't expecting J Rod's call up yet! Just laughed at my skate colleague as he is going to the Chile game and gutted he may have to be cheering on three Saints! I wonder if Roy actually thinks that Smalling is a better player/right back than Clyne? His time will come too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special K Posted 7 November, 2013 Share Posted 7 November, 2013 Well done lads, thoroughly deserved. Also they will be well up for saturday (not that they wouldn't have been) but there should be an extra spring in their step. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Le God Posted 7 November, 2013 Share Posted 7 November, 2013 Interesting that BBC Sports's news headlines on J Rod rather than Adam. Perhaps because Adam has had a call-up before, this is a first for Jay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy_D Posted 7 November, 2013 Share Posted 7 November, 2013 Surprised - but pleased. But why no Clyne or Shaw?! Is Clyne still in the U21 setup? I'd guess that's already given them a chance to look at those two (and JWP), this friendly looks to be a chance to look at some completely new players.
