Guest thenorthumbrian Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 In a month's time Danny Welbeck will be a national laughing stock. Well. he'll fit in nicely with the rest of the overated dummies. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 What's all this talk of a striker being given the job of stopping Pirlo?! Man, England just need to pick a threatening side, and go out and play. Pirlo has been befuddling all kinds of marking for years. I doubt some defensive front man is going to stop him. Horrendous if true. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leffe186 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Lallana and one of Barkley/Sterling has to start for me. Yeah, definitely rather have one of those three starting than you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eveready Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 BBC - England will give a fitness update on Danny Welbeck on Wednesday after he emerged as a potential injury worry for Saturday's World Cup opener with Italy. The Manchester United striker, 23, is said to have a thigh problem following a training session at England's Urca military base headquarters on Tuesday. If he is ruled out, it will increase the chances of Liverpool winger Raheem Sterling facing the Italians in Manaus. http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/27789874 We can hope...

Why is it even a question about Stirling (and Barkley)? What are we so afraid of? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segun Oluwaniyi Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 I'd go Sterling right, Rooney off Sturridge and Lallana playing from the left. I think Lallana ought to play in the centre. Barkley should be the first attacking option off of England's bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 An utterly pathetic decision if so. I don't even hate Welbeck either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Craig-NUFC Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Seems like the England camp are more interested in how Italy are playing rather than how they're playing themselves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Hodgson in one of th einterviews was going on about not playing youth until they're ready. I will never understand this. After the kind of season's Sterling and Barkley have had this is when you have to put them out there to keep riding the wave they're on. They're full of confidence and everyone is clamouring for them to play. Hodgson literally has nothing to lose here really. If they struggle then bring them off early. I mean you're really going to pick Welbeck over these guys? He is a back up aty Man U that hardly featured this season past. I don't get it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
