  1. I agree about Stones' form but o just think Cahill is far too slow at international. When he has Terry next to him, whilst also slow they can sit back and Terry will direct him where to go. For England he gets exposed too often and doesn't have the partner to cover him.
  2. Clarke wasn't good enough as a no1, but as a no2, his record is very good. Will be happy with him
  3. Leeds and Wolves?? No chance either will spend a few million
  4. @V01 Who else would you play? It was a toss up between him and Milner. Now however much I like Milner, and he has been on good form recently, he's never really impressed that much for England imo. Henderson is awful, as is lallana.
  5. My starting team against Wales and Russia: Hart Clyne Stones Smalling Bertrand Dier Wilshire Ali Rooney Kane Vardy However, I still think RH will chicken out of playing 442 and go: hart Walker Smalling Cahill Rose Dier Wilshire Rooney Ali Vardy Kane Whilst the players are the same the difference in where Vardy will start will be pivotal.
  6. Really wish we'd taken the same approach as Wales and not had many games. Some players in the squad have already played over 50 games this season. For this I'd give Forster another start,play first choice defence (another game to get used to each other), then the none starters against Russia in midfield and attack.
  7. I completely missed this story, but according to wiki he plays international football for Curaçao
  8. £8m on Pritchard seems ludicrous.. I've never seen him play, but is he any better than say Gardner or Grealish? He hasn't managed to break into a prem side on a regular basis. I think sometimes people just want to buy these players from a good side without even seeing them play. Id also agree that we won't be spending £8m on a midfielder, and we'll be lucky if do on a striker. You could easily argue we need 10 new players, as such I'd say majority will be 3-5m bracket.
  9. Bookies have us at 4th favourite, and for me that's about right. Spain, Germany and France above us.
  10. I'm guessing Coman isn't a regular either? How old is the Portugal squad? They really so seem to struggle to bring in new players, and never seem to have a good striker (ronaldo to me is a forward not a striker)
  11. It's the f'in daily mail when do they get anything right? Chill out guys
  12. Yep such an ambulance of talent in midfield... And yet some Spanish reporters are saying Spain will do nothing. It makes me laugh how De Gea isn't their number one keeper as well.. Does anyone know if koke is a regular starter, wanted him in my dream team but i don't know if he is regular starter enough...
  13. The French defence doesn't look the best, also upfront how the hell has gignac got in but gamiero who has played well for Sevilla not got in?
  14. Benjen was the guy who took Jon Snow to the wall. He was a first ranger for the nights watch, hadn't been seen since episode 3 I think. He went looking for wildings and never returned... One of his men was the first to come to life, the one Jon burnt to save Mormont and obtain the sword. The guy in chains was Catelyn Starks brother... Rob's uncle... It was he who got married to David Bradley's daughter at the illustrious red wedding, because Rob had thought with his dick and not married Bradley's daughter himself.. Not in answer to you Stevo, but something just came to me as typing the above... People live the Stark's but the children are all the cause of this through their mistakes... Sansa got Ned killed by telling Sersei about Ned leaving. Bran obviously **** up Hodor and potentially the Mad King. Rob married the other girl. Has Arya's mistakes led to anything?

    Chelsea

    Chalobah is only 21, could still make it big. Didn't he and Loftus Cheek play against us in the Next Gen tournament? McEcharan yes fair enough hasn't ever made it, but with how successful the Chelsea youth team have been recently, it's only a matter of time before some make proper breakthroughs. What do people think of Conte though, has he done that well with Italy?
  16. I agree with the comments above, football is evolving now and it's very rare any manager stays a long time. However, as long as we have a club philosophy, you can easily move onto the next manager. Look at the likes of Southampton and Swansea, they have replaced their managers who can build on what is already there, they are constantly rebuilding a philosophy/style...under Lerner that is all we have done. Mon- Houllier different Houllier- McL different McL - Lambert different, Lambert - Sherwood different Sherwood - Garde different. You get the picture. Managers these days don't have long shelf life's at clubs.

    Chelsea

    See lotfus cheek got player of tournament at toulan tournament. Started getting games under hiddink and needs to play under conte (who I'm still unsure on), as there is a top player there... Him and Ali in a few yrs will be ace together for England
  18. Too be honest, drinkwater hasn't impressed at international level on my eyes so can see why he isn't picked. Townsend offers something different and a different formation so maybe would've took him over Barkley who is on poor form. Still feel we are a defender short, but Roy has disregarded shawcross and there isn't really anyone else.
  19. So Bellew calling out Haye, and Haye saying he'd fight him after Briggs... Surely that would see Haye stepping down weight division?
  20. Anyone know any websites where it lists the players for each team and current appearances/form
  21. Big congrats to Cook, great achievement... Could get another 5000
  22. I wouldn't be surprised if Valyrian steel can also cut through Dragons. Sam's going to cut the head off dragoon and end up on the throne
  23. Other side of the world to Dany, but he is still on Westeros and not too far from Kingslanding... It was a boring part though.
  24. Not the best episode, it was obvious Arya wouldn't go through with it. Tommen is so weak and boring. Really needed to see Marjorie do walk of shame. Good to see David Bradley back though.
