serious gaylord posted:Injuries will see him out of the top flight very soon I think. Not playing enough to develop as a defender. All of our senior centrebacks have had and continue to have horrible injury problems, I think someone needs to start seriously looking at the physios and coaches. It's like we've a back line made of what's left of Diaby, stuffed into Anderton's shoes and given a Dyer mask.

Redundant posted:Another case of the Micah Richards effect looms on the horizon. There was something sinister about how Jones played when Smalling went off injured against Sunderland and Jones became this commanding ballplaying centreback that could tackle and was at times the reason it stayed 1-1.

When Fabian Delph was bossing it for Leeds when he was about 6 I distinctly remember saying he'd play for England one day, and I'd love to say I did that thing player's dads do and put money on it and now I'm counting out a fat stack but I didn't. Well done Fabian

the voice of reasonquote:“In the build-up to the Italy game at the World Cup, Rooney was under pressure with people like me saying he wasn’t world class. Rooney crossed the ball for [Daniel] Sturridge, who finished it well, and instead of running to Rooney and saying ‘what a f****** ball mate’, he runs away and does that stupid dance. If someone in your team is under that kind of pressure as Rooney was, and puts that kind of ball in for you, you go straight to him. The All Blacks do it – they are a team. In the Newcastle promotion season [of 2009-10], we sacrificed for each other. In the promotion season here, everyone was saying “yeah I’ll f****** sacrifice for you’.

Drop Smalling, Townsend, Wilshere and one of Lambert or Rooney (for say Stones, Barry maybe?, another winger or central midfielder and Sturridge) and that's a pretty good squad. edit oh also Gibbs and Baines are bad but idk who else you'd call up at this point

Walcott's played 20 minutes of football in the last 9 months. England are a joke.

Pleased that Downing is getting rewarded for his good form but jesus christ Mark Noble is passed up again in favor of noted poo poo player Jack Colback and the shuffling corpse of Michael Carrick
