It's a real shame he dosen't play more, would call him up for Euro 2020 if he did. I know it's stacked ahead of him at Man. City but you'd think a six month loan move in January would've been benefical. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best RB in the world, top 3 out and out striker, most in form winger, imo the best front 3 in world football, creative midfielders coming out of our ears Big tournament for Southgate, I think he's the opposite of previous managers, can tickle the players bollocks and make them enjoy being there which is half the battle, unfortunately the other half is that actual football stuff and he's not very good at it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure who left back is but Chilwell will get torn apart by anybody decent 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's obscene really. Mad really isn't it, You can't really blame them for taking what is offered though and there are plenty of people around that make some/most of them look like paupers but the equivalent of 1 days pay from a single player would change most normal peoples lives immesurably for the better 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a chance, all 4 of our goalkeepers are better than him maybe Kalinic as well. England have much better goalkeepers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll give you Lloris, I forgot how bad he's gotten. I would have agreed with you before about Leno but he's been rather good lately and even with his recent dip in form DDG is still a level above Pickford. How Pickford is the de facto #1 for England while Pope is playing how he is, is beyond me. Add Heaton to that while he was fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok the keeper and defence situation isn't the greatest, but we should still have a very decent team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 going OT based on what I saw of him vs Bayern munich (when admittedly he was returning from injury) Abraham looked way off that level I think if Kane was out then the likes of pep or klopp would create an attack using sterling, Sancho and then the glut of AMC we have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we're talking about Danny Ings being our first choice in the summer you know we don't have a wealth of options. But like you say (and I've said elsewhere), if Pep or Klopp had those players they'd be winning trophies (yeah I know club football is different but you get the point) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
