Saint Garrett Posted 26 February, 2014 Share Posted 26 February, 2014 Southampton FC @SouthamptonFC 50s GOAL! #SaintsFC’s Josh Sims puts #EnglandU17s ahead against Holland in the Algarve Tournament. Well done, Josh! I like the sound of this kid from the little I've heard about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doddisalegend Posted 26 February, 2014 Share Posted 26 February, 2014 Saw him against Pompey, like trousers said pompey were poor, but I thought Josh was the stand out player on the pitch great ball control and fast to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjii Posted 26 February, 2014 Share Posted 26 February, 2014 He looked like one of our best players in the match against Charlton too. A little like Nathan Dyer in style and build. One to keep an eye on f'sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint_John Posted 26 February, 2014 Share Posted 26 February, 2014 If you read the FA report it appears he got booked for his boot coming off. http://www.thefa.com/news/england/development/2014/feb/u17s-out-netherlands-in-the-algarve The spark would eventually come through debutant Josh Sims, although the afternoon started strangely for the Southampton youngster as he was booked for what appeared to be nothing more sinister than his boot coming off on 21 minutes .......and they started with a bang as Sims produced a moment of magic he will remember for many a year. He raced through onto a pass as the defence struggled to catch him, and cut back before finishing right-footed to grab a debut goal on 43 minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lallana's Left Peg Posted 26 February, 2014 Share Posted 26 February, 2014 (edited) At 16 Sims has already logged gametime with the U21's and trained several times with the first team as well. EDIT: Although whisper it quietly, I was told he came to us after being at Portsmouth. Edited 26 February, 2014 by Lallana's Left Peg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cat Posted 26 February, 2014 Share Posted 26 February, 2014 At 16 Sims has already logged gametime with the U21's and trained several times with the first team as well. EDIT: Although whisper it quietly, I was told he came to us after being at Portsmouth. He did. Despite being so slight that his shirt always looks 3 sizes too big he has enough pace and skill for it not to matter. Definitely an exciting player to have coming through.

Jez Posted 27 February, 2014 Share Posted 27 February, 2014 Who was the big black left back (number 6 - maybe not a left back) who picked up the ball and beat two men at the beginning of that clip? He looked decent! Good goal though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom28 Posted 27 February, 2014 Share Posted 27 February, 2014 Is anyone else dumbfounded as to why Calum Chambers hasn't been selected in the U21's? He's now a starter for a top 10 PL team and yet he can't make the U21 squad. I thought he was in with an outside chance of a full England call up this week. Very odd.

I think Hodgson is naming a 30 man squad today (?) so wouldn't surprise me to see one or two out of JRod, Shaw, Clyne, Chambers, Cork, JWP named as a result of the extra 7 spaces available. JRod and Shaw the most likely I guess. I think Lallana and Lambert will retain their places (despite Lambert not being 'on fire' for us recently) Edited 27 February, 2014 by trousers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's now a starter for a top 10 PL team and yet he can't make the U21 squad. I thought he was in with an outside chance of a full England call up this week. Very odd. Calum has played for the U19's a dozen times (or so) and is team captain. As Targett, Gallagher and Reed have now been called up; perhaps he's there to help them get established in the squad.? He's undoubtedly capable of moving up to the U21's on a permanent basis and I'd guess that there will be a lot of changes in the England set-up, one way or another....AFTER the World Cup. IMO....the " 100+ cappers " like Cole, Lampard and possibly even Gerrard will disappear, as the next " serious " competition is the Euro. Championships in 2016 - they will definitely be too old for that. Like Luke Shaw, Calum is a great prospect, so I don't see any mad panic to move him up right away - he still has a bit to learn.

trousers Posted 27 February, 2014 Share Posted 27 February, 2014 http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/england-squad-announcement-luke-shaw-3187406 Roy Hodgson is likely to give youth a chance when he names an enlarged squad 32-man squad for next Wednesday's home friendly against Denmark at Wembley. A number of younger players have been pushing their claims to be part of the World Cup squad for Brazil in recent months. In particular, Luke Shaw and Raheem Sterling have impressed for their Premier League clubs this season. Nathaniel Clyne and Jon Flanagan may get their first call-ups as cover for Phil Jones and Kyle Walker who are struggling with injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trousers Posted 27 February, 2014 Share Posted 27 February, 2014 Surely he'll take 1 strong striker to the WC? It's Lambert or Carroll, and Carroll isn't even in a squad of 30. So I think it's Lambert bar injury. Could motivate him, could make him a bit wary. I mean would you go into headers and challenges with quite the same commitment if your one chance of a World Cup is on the line? It's a fine line.... if holds back too much Rickie won't look as impressive over the remaining games as an 'all guns blazing' Andy Carroll....

Window Cleaner Posted 27 February, 2014 Share Posted 27 February, 2014 Squad of 30 to which you have to add Jagielka and Phil Jones so at least 9 of these players won't be making the final 23, some of those are quite evident others not so much so players can't really slack off too much in the remaining PL fixtures.
