TheBrownBottle Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 55 minutes ago, The Fountain said: He must be the only Englishman to play over 30 League games for Man Utd this century and not get an England cap whilst been there. I think you’re probably right - playing a handful of games for Man Utd pretty much guaranteed at least one cap. Funny thing is that we’ve managed to push our way towards that group of clubs - we had six players in the last (massively expanded) England squad, but based on form I don’t think half of them would’ve been called up if we were still seen as a bottom-half club Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievably Harry Winks played 10 times and Maitland Miles from Arsenal Willock should have been - but I was more surprised by Murphy’s non-call-up. I don’t think he’s international quality mind, but his output was enough for a spot in the squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fountain Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 The difference in the number of goals Liverpool score when he's off the pitch as opposed they score when he's on the pitch is staggering. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Spaceman Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 (edited) Another shite display from him anyway.

Heron Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 (edited) It's a sad state of affairs really. If Isak had have stayed here he may have also had his leg bust, but we were building something really strong and it's not helped all parties that whole debacle. EDIT: Except for his agent.

"Great movement" That sounds like us on here clutching at straws with Elanga. What I mean by that is the bar is set so incredibly low that just seeing him do things that any functioning footballer would do effortlessly gives us hope that he isn't a complete write off and we didn't just spunk an obscene amount on him. But deep down we know we're kidding ourselves and the transfer will likely never work out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
