ponsaelius Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Seriously I've never, ever rated Downing but I thought he might be starting to show something after last season and a couple of decent England displays. However this season he has been absolute fucking shite. Not just the statistics either, watch him play. He's a footballing coward who rather than attack a fullback will stop and pass backwards, he has completely disappeared from nearly every game he's played this season which has been far more than he should have been ever allowed to play in. No goals, no assists, no heart and no talent. I can't comprehend how he's been awarded with a place in the squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 And that's why the FA should've hired Harry Redknapp I'm sorry but there's no way Redknapps squad would have been too far off Hodgsons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dinotheprehistoricgeordie Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Can't believe that Sturridge isn't in the squad. I'd have taken Richards and Johnson as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chubby Jason Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Which players are you referring to? Which ones do you mean? The ones he could have picked or the rubbish he has picked? The ones that could have been picked. I can think of one or two that should maybe have been in the squad but I don't see any outrageous omissions there.

Ketsbaia Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 That squad is horrific, I think my face is about to melt. Hodgson, man - you've ballsed it up already. I can't wait for Cabaye and Ben Arfa to tear them apart. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Adam Johnson is overrated at club level but the few England games he played he was really good I thought. Without looking anything up, I somehow get the feeling that he's had a more productive season than Stewart fucking Downing. Highly doubt I'll be able to support this team, it's a fucking disgrace how some of these players are in. France for me like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 For those talking about how our players have done domestically, go and look at how Klose and Podolski did in the Bundesliga in 09-10, and the World Cup which followed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but they where already prven at international level. Ours are proven failures at international level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
