mikeyp102 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Qualified for the tournament for the fifth time in a row tonight. Gareth Southgate has done a good job there, scored 31 and conceded 2 in 10 qualifiers. Won ten on the bounce. Hopefully do better at the tournament next but than last time ( Pearce played such a negative side and failed to get a win) (Sorry mods couldn't find another thread) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 (edited) Pearce was awful with the u21s despite the decent record, they played Stone Age long ball bollocks and looked clueless, lost interest in the team tbh The most interesting thing will be who goes next summer, no doubt there'll be some bollocks about it being unfair on those who got through the qualifiers and some bollocks about long hard seasons with no rest for those who flirt with the seniors, but **** all that, take shaw, chambers, sterling, Barkley, chamberlain and go and try and win it Edited October 14, 2014 by villa4europe 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRS-T Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Hope Grealish will be playing for these in the not too distant future. Spain, France and Holland all failed to qualify. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 I remember the last time some of journalists said behaviour of 2 of the players was a disgrace and they were senior internationals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 I remember the last time some of journalists said behaviour of 2 of the players was a disgrace and they were senior internationals Jonjo 'I'm above playing for the U21s' Shelvey no doubt, who is shite anyway. I agree, play our strongest squad of U21s within reason, and if we have any David 'too tired to play' Bentleys politely inform them they won't be selected for the senior squad anytime soon. I remember when Chris Sutton rejected an England B call up and it effectively ended his international career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A certain Mr Agbonlahor was also "too tired" to attend an Under 21 tournament, a few years back as well, I remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three or Four of weeks in a 5* hotel playing about half a dozen games of football must really take it out of the players, when they could be getting smashed in Ibiza with their mates which really helps them recharge for the season ahead.

mikeyp102 Posted October 16, 2014 Author Share Posted October 16, 2014 Martinez has said that Barkley won't be fit for u21s after his injury. What a load of crap. He will have only played for 6 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
