NEEJ Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Ludicrous he didn't get more time in the two friendlies to make a mark. Gutted for him as I reckon he genuinely deserved a place in that squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Bad craic that, thought he did well in the short amount of time he was given last week and he's in better form than any of the other wide options. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shays Given Tim Flowers Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 He could actually bring something useful to the table in a game. A lot of the players just offer more of the same. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 What's the point in taking James Milner. Been one of Liverpool's best players this season tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsley Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Rashford is the one I can't get my head around. If anything sums up what's wrong with England, it's been the clamour in the media and among most pundits for Rashford to be rushed into the squad on the back of a single - admittedly decent - England appearance. He's a prodigious talent but his inclusion in the final 23 is ridiculous IMO. Obviously gutted for Andros but feel a bit bad for Drinkwater as well, who has surely done more than Barkley and Henderson over the course of the season and in the warm-up games.

I much prefer the Rashford pick over an injured Sturridge. He's the 3rd choice striker at best and has a knock. He's expendable. EXPEND HIM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously gutted for Andros but feel a bit bad for Drinkwater as well, who has surely done more than Barkley and Henderson over the course of the season and in the warm-up games. I thought Rashford looked a bit lightweight against the Aussies and was trying too hard at times and losing the ball despite the early goal pretty much guaranteeing him a place on the plane. Feel sorry for Townsend as he got little or no chance to prove himself (Drinkwater played in both games and looked lost in both of them) and did quite well when he came on. Sturridge is injury prone and out of form and will be lucky to play at all. Are they now on standby in case someone gets injured or do replacements now just have to come from within the squad?

Jayson Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 The Ross Barkley selection is the most debatable, Townsends been very unlucky. Roy obviously tries to show players loyalty so they'll repay him, surely picking the players highest in confidence & form is a better idea? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is exactly my point. It was widely reported that Rashford was included provisionally to get some introductory experience in the friendlies and would then be cut; 1 goal in a friendly against poor opposition and suddenly he's a banker. It's pathetic. If Sturridge's injury isn't serious then he has to go IMO. Still England's best striker when fit (admittedly a big if). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tisd09 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Feel for Townsend, I thought he would go given he is a different winger to what they have and seemed to be in favour of Hodgson, however, from a Newcastle point of view (as long as he stays) then injury and there is not going to be a problem.

afar Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Might be for the best in terms of NUFC, as it'll keep him out of the shop window. If he had a good Euros, no way we would have been able to hang on to him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
