Wrensup Posted 7 November, 2013 Share Posted 7 November, 2013 Morgan should have been selected instead of Mavuba at least, then again Deschamps just does not know what he's doing, unless of course the "quota" system that was uncovered in the dark basements of the FFF with reference to the U21s is secretly applied to the full national side.

trousers Posted 7 November, 2013 Author Share Posted 7 November, 2013 (edited) http://www.bleacherreport.com/articles/1841038-my-england-world-cup-starting-xi-and-why-john-terry-deserves-a-second-chance I hosted a radio phone-in a couple of weeks ago in which I campaigned for three Southampton players to be called into the England squad—Jay Rodriguez, Adam Lallana and Nathan Clyne. Clyne missed out, but Rodriguez and Lallana have been named in Roy Hodgson's 28-man roster for the upcoming friendlies against Chile and Germany. Hodgson got that decision spot on. Credit to the England manager, who seems emboldened by qualification and in the mood to make things happen. Rodriguez would be a great substitute to have at the World Cup next summer. He's quick, unpredictable and brings real quality up front. Lallana would be in my England starting XI. He's been doing the business for five years with Southampton and is now their club captain. He's improved under an excellent coach in Mauricio Pochettino and deserves his chance at international level. If I picked my England team for the first game of the group stages in Brazil today, this would be it: Edited 7 November, 2013 by trousers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martel Posted 7 November, 2013 Share Posted 7 November, 2013 Sad about Clyne but chuffed for the others. Have to agree about Clyne,from the first game against Man City last season I have been more than impressed by him, on another note, I wonder how many premier club boards, pundits and so forth will be taking us more seriously; look at what we as a club have brought to the party, Walcott, the Ox, Bale, Shaw, Lallana, Chambers, Ward-Prowse to name a few, their is no doubt in my mind that Southampton football club is showing the way forward to the rest and has to be the envy of all.

S-Clarke Posted 7 November, 2013 Share Posted 7 November, 2013 It's great news, a pretty historic and proud day to be a Southampton fan, that's for sure. We're riding on the crest of a wave at the moment, it's been a long time since my club has had such an important impact in the world/international scene, and I don't think it's going to wear off either. People will know that I'm a fan of Jay Rodriguez, but I think he's English class. Have said all along that he will play for England, and I fully hope that he gets his opportunity in the next 2 games. Lallana is no surprise though, he was nailed on to be in the squad. The best English attacking midfielder in the PL right now and I would fully expect him to start too. A little surprised to see Lambo still in there, but it shows that he's done enough to edge himself into the squad based on his previous displays. Got a feeling that when Carroll's fit he's out though, which is a complete travesty as he's about 10x better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wes Tender Posted 7 November, 2013 Share Posted 7 November, 2013 The FA @FA Hodgson: This is an opportunity to learn a bit more about Rodriguez.

krissyboy31 Posted 7 November, 2013 Share Posted 7 November, 2013 Can just hear the Skates saying that they had more in the England Squad a few years ago (not mentioning they were all established England internationals when they signed them and one of them made his England debut whilst playing for us).

david in sweden Posted 7 November, 2013 Share Posted 7 November, 2013 of course a good question will be - will they all three get on the field of play at the same time?.. It has happened before. Back in " the good old days ..in the 1980's" ; Peter Shilton, Steve Williams and Mark Wright played in 3 internationals together between Sept. and November 1984. there were others, too. Kevin Keegan and Dave Watson two games together in 1981, David Armstrong and Peter Shilton both played against WEST Germany in 1982 Shilton and Williams 2 games -"- in 1983, Armstrong and Wright, 1 game v. Wales in 1984 Danny Wallace and Mark Wright v. Egypt in Jan 1986 " .those were the days ....my friend..." and a little more recently ....James Beattie and Wayne Bridge were both in the England team that played Serbia and Montenegro in 2003. Would be great to see Adam, Rickie and Jay Rod turning in good displays and see if it could break the " Man.Utd monopoly " on places.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
