SuperRed Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Reports that Danny Rose will be in the England squad announced on Thursday. Until this point I didn't think I could get any more despondent about the national team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Its Smith Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 I think you are forgetting that players can improve. He is first choice left back for a top six Premier League team. He isn't terrible. Best English left backs in order are probably Baines Shaw - injured Gibbs - injured Rose So fair enough he gets picked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red white and red Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 Rose is playing well for spurs, so quite rightly he has been called up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CITYAREREDANDWHITE Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 Left backs one of Englands strongest positions, with Baines and Shaw. Then there's Gibbs, who is a very good player. There's then Matty Targett and Ryan Bertrand, both are highly rated at Southampton, and theirs fans seem to think that Targett will be better than Shaw. Unfortunately two of these are injured. But rose has been playing well for Spurs this season, and quite rightly has got the nod above other left backs. What really will surprise me, is if Clyne is left out behind Johnson. Clyne is the best English left back, and Johnson is dog poo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gert Mare Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 Does this mean that we can now call him "Super Danny Rose", go and purchase an England shirt with "Rose" written on the back, update Famous Bristolian Sports people on Wikipedia to state "Danny Rose - England International - and former Bristol City player", can we go on Facebook mixing England talk with Bristol City talk, upload pictures of our William Hill betting slips with ex-Bristol City player Danny Rose to score first, and jack ourselves off every time his name is mentioned during the international?.......Oh right, this only applies to Gaselona fans and Rickie Lambert.

glynriley Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 Jack Colback and Fabian Delph called up as well And Andros Townsend who can't get in the Spurs team. Still, I suppose at least it's not the same old faces. World class my arse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enoch Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 Very young squad. I suppose he didn't have much choice given the retirements, squad is really lacking talent! Our midfield is very inexperienced and our defence is poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 If it has come to calling up players like Danny Rose we may as well focus on the Championship and giving players a chance to rediscover pride for the shirt. He sure isn't world class, along with the very vast majority of that team (if not all of it). If we're already going for sub-standard lets go for sub-standard but with pride rather than prima donnas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also no surprise to see Hodgson immedietly jump on the Chambers bandwagon. The guy has less then 50 games prem experience, no u21 caps, but as soon as Arsenal buy him, he is called up. Deary me, this is the best we got? Terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petehinton Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 that is probably the worst England squad i've ever seen. Think people will really see now how good Lampard and Gerrard are.

North London Red Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 that is probably the worst England squad i've ever seen. Think people will really see now how good Lampard and Gerrard are. Jack Colback replacing one of them???? No words To be fair, Colback is only in because of the injuries to Lallana and Barkley. Arguably James Ward Prowse should have got the call in those circumstances. Adam Johnson can probably consider himself unlucky not to have got the call either. Overall the squad does look weak, though. Add in the six or seven injured players (Walcott, Shaw, Gibbs, Lallana, Barkley, Flanagan and Rodriguez) and it would probably improve, but we urgently need some of the highly rated under 19 and under 17 players to come through.

Aaron-Bcfc Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 Time for Roy to go. We've got no hope under him. Who exactly will we have hope under then?

Taylor10 Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 To be fair the injury list is ridiculous. I would like to think a few of these players won't get near the squad when we have a fully fit squad to pick from. I personally would have had James Ward-Prowse in over Colback or Delph and Eric Dier in for Jagielka. Not sure why Hodgson is sticking with the likes of Jagielka to be honest, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
