  1. 2006 though I only properly remember the last two. There's something not quite right about a winter World Cup. I know that 2014 is also a winter World Cup but you won't see players in gloves and scarves like in South Africa.
  2. BBC seem to be covering Scotland's participation: Scotland Under-17s reach European Championship semi-final
  3. Fixed. Spain having an amazing squad does not make our squad bad. And Torres and Villa wouldn't get in the England squad. And let's not forget that Spain's centre forward is not even Spanish - he's Brazilian. At least we are using only English players. Wasn't Sterling born in Kingston, Jamaica? Yes he was. Just as Paul McGrath and David O'Leary were born in London, England.
  4. Raheem Sterling? Is English. Just as Paul McGrath is Irish.
  5. Welbeck or Villa or Lambert or Torres. players that have done it in big games over the new Heskey or a plodding journeyman. England would bite for either of them 2 in their squad Welbeck is there for his ability to play as a wide forward as well - he can bring pace and energy from the bench. Villa is past his best. Torres or Lambert. Torres has scored 13 PL goals for Chelsea in the last two seasons. Lambert has 13 PL goals for Southampton this season alone.

    Luke Shaw

    Exactly what I thought when I seen the big price tag on him No disrespect to mark but if he can cause shaw that many problems how would he cope against CL opposition Albrighton caused Shaw problems because of his agility. When Shaw moves to CB he won't have to face nippy 5' wingers every Saturday. Instead he will face Andy Carroll who will destroy him in the air.
  8. Growing organically doesn't work. Look at Southampton. Bale, Walcott, Oxlade-Chamberlain - all gone before the age of of 18. Lallana and Shaw - bids made for them within 24 hours of the season ending. I don't see anybody taking Man City's best players.
  9. Do the Irish have no pride in their national team? It's supposed to be Ireland not England B.
  10. Wouldn't think so. Hard to believe he's only 22. Bacuna didn't even get into the Holland squad for the U-21 Euros last year.
  11. Danny Mills is an idiot. He says that if we won''t do anything we won't be qualifying for tournaments and we'll be picking Championship players. Blatantly not true - like we'd struggle to qualify for a 24-team European Championship They also keep going on about the number of English players decreasing in the Premier League. Well surely it's about quality not quantity. I'd rather there were 40 class Englishmen in the Premier League than 100 average Englishmen. I'd rather have 1 Gary Neville than 3 Danny Mills'. Also they haven't actually proved that less Englishmen in the Premier League leads to a worse England team. 20 years ago there were twice as many Englishmen in the top-flight and we didn't even qualify for the World Cup. Not to mention missing consecutive World Cups in the 70s.
  12. Started today. Taking place in Malta. Group A Holland Malta England Turkey Group B Germany Switzerland Scotland Portugal Live on Eurosport. Scotland vs Portugal just kicked off Malta vs England kicks off at 5pm. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2014_UEFA_European_Under-17_Championship
  13. Well he is both but I'd say he is English of Nigerian descent considering that he speaks in a Geordie accent. He only plays for Nigeria because he isn't good enough for England - same as Victor Moses, Victor Anichebe, Sone Aluko etc. Half the Jamaica squad is English as well.
  14. Petition against 'B' teams - http://www.change.org/en-GB/petitions/the-football-association-say-no-to-b-teams
  15. Race for the final Europa League spot - Spurs vs Man U.
  16. Tonight was a big game due to the title race so maybe it wise just to give him a cameo. He should definitely start against Spurs though.
  17. Henrique ahead of Miranda? Maxwell ahead of Filipe Luis?
  18. Giggs giving Tom Lawrence and James Wilson their debuts tonight from the start! Grealish to start tomorrow?
