Dokko Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 It’s usually at this stage he does something stupid. He could afford to. He's got the job done already. He can’t really, not if he wants to be anything more than this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benwell Lad Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Has looked like a top PL player for a while now. Huge asset to the team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevo Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 I reckon He will go to the WC despite not being called up. Impossible for Southgate to ignore the lad now Sky Sports and MOTD are praising him on a weekly basis. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but neither was 90% of the squad yet he bore the bulk of the brunt of our frustration as fans (not to say he's antics didn't merit some of it), been a gem last 10 games and really should be at the WC imo. This isn't the Scholes/Lamps/Carick era, current options are genuinely average Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Howay! No way can we take Shelvey to the World Cup, we need Jake Livermore man! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mighty__mag Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 In January the calls to sell? Fickle bunch in here Aye, the arse kissing Merino got on a weekly basis. But in truth Merino stands out but is probably imo a more lazy player. Since he's been dropped the form has improved. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Meh can't argue with Shelvey's form atm and him and Diame are the best midfield duo we've had in current form for a long while. What also can't be argued is both players aren't exactly consistent across a full season. I'd love them to kick on from here forever but competition for the midfield remains important. Merino does seem to have fallen from grace somewhat and has indeed given some poor showings but he will come again, like Lejeune and indeed Diame Rafa will improve him and could well be a regular in future.

Guest Howaythetoon Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 In January the calls to sell? Fickle bunch in here Not really as he was shit to average for a long time and despite his recent very good form, one goal for us in the PL is hardly good going. His form and Diame’s since the turn of the year has been superb, same with the team really. I’d like us to improve in the centre in the summer mind.

Kaizero Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 I'll happily admit he's improved massively since Christmas and has played a big part in our good from. Would still want to upgrade though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

afar Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 This sort of crap from Garth Crooks is the reason why he's not getting the England call up he should be: "Certainly England have no-one with his ability in midfield - he just can't be trusted right now.". Can't be trusted how ? Because he's been sent off in the past, which player hasn't ? Maguire and Kane are two England players who've played us this season who should have both been sent off, but it's OK to include them because the referee in both incidents was awful. Crooks's team of the week is a load of absolute un-researched garbage, he just looks at the scorers and assist makers couples them with the big team's best players and that's his team. How the guy is employed beats me. http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/43691601 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chopey Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Totally agree, the Chelsea defender did nothing but score a tap in and he's in the team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowlingcrofty Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Tbf Shelvey has been yellow carded as recently as December, so I understand his concerns. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 I think Shelvey will go to the world cup. I don't know why, I just think every manager has their wild card and Shelvey will be Southgates. He scored in front of the England manager on Saturday, that will do him no harm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Doubt he'll start, but could see him being the player Southgate turns to if he needs a goal with 20-30 minutes to go and we're struggling to create. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPL Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Was laughing at the inclusion of Ashley Young, it was a stone cold penalty but it’s not his fault the referee didn’t see it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like footballers and there has been far too much over-physicality where Shelvey has been concerned This annoyed me as well! Basically saying I hate the guy.

Papavasiliou Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 I think Shelvey will go to the world cup. I don't know why, I just think every manager has their wild card and Shelvey will be Southgates. He scored in front of the England manager on Saturday, that will do him no harm. Only 2 more friendlies left before the start of the World Cup though. Not exactly an optimal amount of time to get him in. If he does go it'll be through injuries to other players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
