All of which would get in the England team, they also have Ake who I think is class Edited May 5, 2020 by sir_gary_cahill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A'Villan Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 (edited) Any winger getting a look in to a side as an understudy to Arjen Robben shows a lot of promise and potential. Edit: Not entirely true what I've posted above, but if you look at the Netherlands side of 2014, I doubt they expected to capitulate as they did.

Agreed, but in the 5 years since he has not been called up. He was a very talented youngster back then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I am excited by his being brought here, especially considering he came during our Championship position. It shows he's still hungry to prove himself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sir_gary_cahill Posted May 5, 2020 Author Share Posted May 5, 2020 I think these selections go to show that for a newly promoted team, we have a decent Premier League squad. If the worst happens and we do go down, we will lose some players, it’s inevitable. Even if we perform the miracle and stay up, we will lose some players. What defines us is how we replace them, I trust Smith whatever happens, I don’t know if other posters feel the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
