I'd take Barkley instead of Drinkwater and if you are going to pick Jagielka you could have picked Dann. Sturridge will be injured 2 days into the camp so he could have picked Rashford or even Defoe(bias showing) as Fat Sam was lauding his performance before Euros.

Wow, that's probably the worst England squad I have ever seen. Not saying that it's not the best squad they could pick, just lacks any world class quality.

The success of the EPL seems to have been at the expense of the local players, will probably grind out the results needed to qualify, be overhyped, get a weak group and go home early

Of course we could follow the example of north of the border and the SPL and be embarrassingly shite at everything

Once again you've gone for deflection and failed to answer a straightforward question.

You're getting a reputation as dodgy and evasive.

You've already been informed. Your other multi has been told. One of the 500 or so that you have.
What kind of person creates hundreds of multis and talks with himself to make it seem like others are agreeing with him?
Someone pretty insecure and lacking something in life I would think.
Did you play with imaginary friends as a child? or maybe...you still do?

Amazing how one forumite can hijack a topic on England national side, and talk about Klose and AU.

You're the only one who mentioned AU, why hijack a thread and make it about AU.

Interesting to see if Wilshire is loaned out by Arsenal, he clearly needs some consistent game time to get back in the England squad again.

Oh my........ :oops: :oops:
The FA’s feeling is that England need to move with the times and after failing so dismally in their last few tournaments, culminating in the embarrassment of Roy Hodgson’s team going out of Euro 2016 to Iceland, to start giving themselves the best possible chance of winning something – even if it means potentially having someone in the squad who cannot properly speak the language.
