Hodgson in one of th einterviews was going on about not playing youth until they're ready.

 

I will never understand this.

 

Well, it's provably the most simple concept known to man.

 

I do agree Welbeck shouldn't start tomorrow, mind. He's a good player but we've got much better.

Hodgson is absolutely petrified of Pirlo.

 

Absolutely no idea how to actually make Italy worry.

 

Utterly pathetic decision.

 

Will you shut up about Pirlo, Neil. All you've banged on about for the past week or so. :lol:

This guy! You might want to include the rest of my post, rather than take that bit completely out of context.

 

Sterling and Barkley are ready enough, considering the season they've just had, and the fact that the alternative is Welbeck!!!

Finally time to give a fuck about my national team.

 

COME ON ENGLAND! :frantic:

 

Yeah my "give a fuck" levels are increasing by the second. I'll be dead excited by kick off. :celb:

I think the Welbeck hate on here is ridiculous tbh....always looks bright to me added to his incredible workrate and he's a massive asset to England.

 

Agreed plus he has a decent goal return for England.

I like him a lot. I understand the clamour for more exciting players but hopefully we've got enough of them as well.

Off the ball he's fantastic imo. On it? Not so much. :lol:

Pretty much this, I like him tbh. I know we go on a lot about Pardew's favour for grafters over genuine skill but Welbeck is an example of a player where it rings true to an extent, the same with Jonas before he just turned to complete shit. It just becomes retarded when the gulf in skill is to the extent that it is between him and Sterling.

 

EDIT: Aye like Gouff over Ben Arfa

The best reading of it is Hodgson is thinking Sterling may not be mentally quite ready and would prefer to ease him into the world cup, however in terms of putting out the team most likely to get a result it's a horrible decision. (assuming Welbeck does start)

Sterling and Barkley should both start, i'll be highly disappointed if they don't. But this is one of the things i was talking about before when i said the set up concerns me.

 

I don't trust Hodgson to use the players correctly, just like i haven't for any England manager since Euro 96 :lol: Hopefully he forces me to eat some humble pie.

Sterling is nowhere near ready to be starting games for England at a World Cup.

 

He was pretty much the best English attacking player in the league, back end of last season. Of course he's ready to start

I'm still convinced all the Liverpool players are gonna be s**** like.

 

There is a part of me that thinks that, with the exception of Sturridge, they're made to look much better than they really are by Rodgers' set up. Still, its impossible to write off Sterling for England when he's not starting games.
