England Squad

[trousers]

Been a while since there were no Saints players in the squad. 4 ex Saints players though.

 

[Wiggles31]

No Saints players...... GOOD!

[Katalinic]

Frankly I'm relieved. Pretty uninspiring 22 however.

[nta786]

Funny how there is only 2 Liverpool players in there...

Apart from Vardy and Shelvey/the two GKs and two Everton players- all come from the coveted top 6 now...

[Ivan Katalinic's 'tache]

There is a serious lack of quality English players a the moment looking at that squad. Average and zero chance of winning the Euros.

This^^

 

Really couldn't give a flying **** about international football these days. England are boring and turgid to watch and constantly try to pass off the likes of Rooney and Wilshire as world class when in truth the only world class players in the English PL are foreigners.

[Crab Lungs]

No Henderson? That means we'll be miles better off when we play. Bloke is absolute sh1te.

[DuncanRG]

That's not a bad side but there's not an awful lot of star quality, no.

 

Shaw, Stones, Smalling, Clyne could be a good back line for a few years in future if Smalling keeps improving as he has done recently.

[angelman]

Who wants to bet that Clyne starts both games????

[Lighthouse]

Just 2 goals in 16 games in all comps for Kane now, since scoring on his England debut. In the same period Rooney has only scored against Bruges, Slovenia and that sh*t Villa team we put 6 past.

 

Not exactly Shearer and Linekar is it.

[Chalkboy]

Who wants to bet that Clyne starts both games????

 

I guess he will as there isn't another RB in the squad. No Walker, no Phil Jones....am I mistaken?

I am pretty surprised Chambers hasn't been selected as playing absolute dog sh*t doesn't seem to matter these days.

[Julian H. Cope]

Gibbs has been excellent so far this season....

Exactly how I feel about it.

Not to mention the England squad get togethers nowadays doubling up as a golden opportunity for tapping up players who aren't already at one of the top 6 clubs.

Couple that with all the scandal surrounding FIFA, and I personally find myself wishing the FA would not only boycott the world cup, but disband the England team altogether and concentrate on supporting the domestic game at grass roots level.

[Chalkboy]

How many games has Delph played this season exactly?

[radio slave]

I've just finished rubbing my Nivea in before bed. I think I must have some in my eyes & not seeing straight...where's Lallana?

Bertrand and Forster will be in there when fit. I do miss our English core we had under Poch.

 

Shaw, Lambert, Clyne, Lallana, Lambert, JRod, Puncheon and Cork.

For some reason I felt more of a connection and more pride to that team.

It was great, wasn't it. Don't forget Chambers, Ward-Prowse and occasionally Gallagher as well.

 

We may have four Englishmen starting towards the end of the season, though (Forster, Bertrand, JWP, Rodriguez)

[simo]

Not really fussed about England at the moment!

[Mr Biscuits]

I couldn't give a stuff about England. And I won't until there is a manager who has the balls to pick players outside the top 6 clubs. And who doesn't pick players who spend most of their time sitting on the bench.

 

Oh and a manager who actually takes risks.

Amen to this

[igsey]

Delph and Mason have done nothing apart from play for big clubs (I use the term play loosely for Delph). Still not sure what Cork has to do to get in, he's been excellent since he moved to Swansea and I still maintain he is the type of player England are missing.

 

Bet the Liverpool fans aren't too happy though!

Yep.

 

If they are not there, they cant be tapped up.

 

Bit annoying that Woy has completed his task though; its not as if they will play any better now they are no longer Saints.

 

Bet Clyne is a shoe-in for #1 RB now.

I agree. The lack of young exciting English talent is really disappointing. The number of imports in the Premiership doesn't help. Nor does the ridiculous fees requested for English players.
