Don't think he is competing with either of them. Sterling seem as comfortable on either side so he is just an amazing utility player to have. Euros was Foden right, Sterling left. Foden injured and his deputy, Sancho also injured, so Sterling moved right, Grealish in on the left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly hate Southgate so much it's unhealthy, I can't watch this **** England team anymore. I wouldn't miss a kick of any England game when younger. Southgate has sucked the life out of it for me. Forgot we were playing tonight until just. I'm 35 as well so seen more than enough failure to be too optimistic.

It won't have gone unnoticed by other players at clubs like ours what happens when you move to a European Scum League club. Nothing we can do about the message Jacks transfer sends out. We have to succeed or kiss goodbye to our best players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KentVillan Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Just now, villalad21 said: Pep will improve him tactically over time no doubt. Right now though he is pretty much the same player. Yes I agree with this (more than anything, City are so good that Pep can afford to experiment more with Grealish positionally without dropping points, which will improve his all round game). But he was already good enough to start for England Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of players to fit in. Edited September 8, 2021 by villalad21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would worry about the likes of Konsa and Watkins too if they feel they have to move to play for England. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as much as people make out. Liverpool’s captain is behind West Ham and Leeds players, for example. I agree Southgate would like all his first team players to play for ECL clubs, but it’s not the determining factor on selection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Watkins continues his trajectory, and there will already be plenty of other clubs watcbing him, I have no doubt he'll be off if we tread water. As it stands though he's ours and we have every chance of improving this year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he never really looks like he wants to score a goal, always looking for the pass which is admirable but probably not cut throat enough.
