Maybe it's more to do with him literally not being Glen loving Johnson or Kyle Walker.

Off top of my head I can think of two occasions where the good "Liverpool's Steven Gerrard" turned up for England, 2001 and 2010. I look forward to him coming out of retirement/the grave in 2100. Or 2019, depending on the pattern.

Who would you have in the squad instead?

Clyne, Curtis Davies, just to pluck a couple out of the air. It was loving criminal of Roy to not take Davies to Brazil given the options he had available and the season Davies had.

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.

Another case of the Micah Richards effect looms on the horizon.

He also has poo poo distribution which is a problem for anyone planning on finishing in the top 6.

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.
