Red Army 75 Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Shame Flint didn't get a call up . He could of got use to his new surroundings . Looks like England could do with a decent centre back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRISTOL86 Posted May 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 I know it's a bit tongue in cheek given the location of the game, but booing Townsend, really? Interesting (but forever theoretical) question - would you boo a Rovers player in an England shirt? I certainly wouldn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'd love to know why you think moving to Man City meant he didn't care about playing for England. How can you even link those two? This is without the benefit of hindsight mind. Both sentences are just made up where have I said or implied any of what you say?. Your first sentence is really silly, I would suspect that his head in not in the right place and as a very young kid he has brought this all on himself instead of continuing his impressive apprenticeship at Liverpool (where he was no doubt earning more money than god) he decided to chase the even bigger money at Manc and guess what? he's struggling to cope, something that several much maligned pundits suggested might be the case at the time. Your second sentence is even sillier, before he even went to Liverpool he asked to sit out an England qualifier against Estonia despite being fit, despite being able to party before and after said qualifier.

Murraysrightplum Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 I'd take Townsend we've got a lot of midfielders but not many who can score. Townsend often pops up with a goal and looks good tonight. Decent form for Newcastle towards the end of the season as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gillies Downs Leeds Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 I think Barkley could be one to miss out, he has certainly lost his mojo with Everton towards the end of the season, and looked no better tonight when he came on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe jordans teeth Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Don't think it matters,it will be a second round knockout (only because it's impossible to get knocked out in the group stage) again,the big question is will city have signed a player before England get knocked out?

Tbf mate of all of our comments 'money was a bigger motivation even more than playing for his country' was the really silly one. Now that you've provided a proper answer I agree to be fair. Apart from the final bit, where pretty much every pro backed him for saying he was too tired to play. He was 18/19 and had played a full season, it's not out of the question. I wouldn't judge him entirely on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the highlighted portion he pulled out of the Estonia game very soon after telling the world he wanted to move, the two are linked IMO.

RedRock Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 World-Class attack and keepers. Milner ( never thought I'd say this) and Townsend decent. The rest look decidedly dodgy. Barkley/Sterling more froth than substance, Lallana, Henderson lightweight, defence all at sea. Let's hope Roy sorts it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how much sympathy I'll get at work if I'm too tired to go in next week after another 50 hour week for less than 1% of poor tired Raheem's wage.

Charliesboots Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Not sure if it came across on TV (if the camera faced the dugouts) but each time Barkley lost the ball....and it was all bar once, Roy was firing off a few expletives in his direction. A stand up, throw arms around and fall back into chair happened too. I'm not convinced he's worth taking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't take him or Wilshire who just constantly falls over before getting injured. Also have no idea why we need 3 keepers but no doubt Woy will play safe.
