andycap Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Remember when going to the states or a weak league meant your international career was over? Surely we have better than toney at this stage. Delap can he play? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 2 hours ago, Sibierski said: Bowen is shit in truth. He’s been rolled out for England and just sticks out like a sore thumb. Scores goals in Prem, but it’s clear it doesn’t translate well elsewhere and probably why no club has really made a push for him. Doesn't he lack explosive pace? He has good instincts and can strike a ball sweetly, but never seen him giving defenders that much problem getting in behind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mighty__mag Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Barnes ahead of Gordon, even Murphy based on stats alone this season could be considered, obviously Tuchel isn't that brave. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 I mean, his squads aren't always going to be the best 23 players. He's just starting the job and calling people up to evaluate them individually and as part of the unit. We're against Andorra. And a Senegal friendly. Hopefully when it gets closer to the WC the squads get more sensible and less Hendersony. We'll see. One I am somewhat surprised at is Bellingham. Isn't he supposed to be having surgery after the CWC. He's obviously going to be in any first choice squad, but do we need to put him through this one?

SEMTEX Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 I just saw the interview with Tuchel where he specifically named Tino (and Wharton et al.) as being in the U21s because there is an U21 tournament coming up and he wants them to be leaders in that group and get tournament experience. Right decision imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Henderson is an experienced player you can bring on late in big games to see out a result. Not every player in the squad needs to be some massive young talent, although it's annoying when it's your players getting shafted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 For what its worth, and I think it makes sense, the reason Wharton, Tino, Anderson & Delap aren't in this squad is due to the Under 21 European Championships, Tuchel explicably mentioned that them players are going to be senior voices in the dressing room, and that, that experience, in that environment will be more valuable than a friendly and a game against Andorra for the senior team.

Sibierski Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Think Dan Burn is near nail on to go to World Cup unless he gets injured IMO. Bang in form, Tuchel likes him and if it's between him and Maguire for that LCB experience spot, he's easily ahead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazzy Posted Saturday at 16:12 Share Posted Saturday at 16:12 I think Burn and Konsa might be the most balanced partnership England have available right now. I do think Colwill will end up cementing a place sooner or later though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just adds further to the argument that smaller nations for UEFA’s allocation should go through a pre-qualifying phase, like pretty much every other confederation does.

Fuck qualifying, as long as your country is one of those 32, who cares, right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically is that just not in that order. It's pretty much a back 3, Jones only at RB when we are out of possession which is hardly ever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
