Had he picked him, the knives would have come out over this. No wonder they call it "the impossible job". Expand I'm not sure that he's international material. He's strong but not great technically IMO. The Man City game showed why he's gained a reputation but hasn't convinced Southgate or the big clubs, who don't seem that interested, judging from the lack of transfer links. Two decent but fairly basic finishes and then he fluffs an easy chance through a clumsy touch on the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LFEE Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Wonder how it’s come to light. Wouldn’t be surprised if someone competing for his spot got wind of it and had their agent let it slip. Southgate clearly was unaware when he picked him for the two games prior to the tournament. Wonder if it was during that time it was leaked or just recently.

Dandy Man Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Is there any actual proof he has bet on matches involving himself (and on himself to get a red card) - other than coincidence of dates?

Dandy Man Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Given how many footballers gamble and how prominent football is as a betting product, should gambling firms restrict a customers access to football betting products if the customer is known to be a professional footballer? Obviously can still just bet via an intermediary but given the effort firms now put into monitoring and verifying customers identities it seems like would be fairly easy to do.
