No. You said a few times that the deal is done Which it clearly isn't You also said that shaw was going to start against Peru, he also never I would stay a little more quiet if I were you

He might be told that they are off after the World Cup for all we know He might want assurances that the fonte's, Morgans and lovrens of the squad will NOT be sold

DD is there to get his first 11/14/15 ready for the groups stages of the World Cup. Lots will have to happen before a player who never even made the original squad to get a start

he is there to get his team ready for the first game I suspect many injuries and suspensions will have to happen before morgan starts

why is it?

I think they should keep this away from such competitions imagine ENgland holding a banner saying that the Falklands are ours. I suspect the open mindedness shown here would not be so forthcoming. sod it, lets go into the italy mach with a banner saying "scotland is ours'

We are not Chelsea or arsenal though. It's now all about Kruger and what he has to say. It's like he has taken over the mantle after les reeds initial, I comfortable with the MOPO situation, before the season ended

You really think he won't have a say? Really?

Adkins is a decent manager. A premier league manager? Not for me. Doubt many (any) teams in the prem will look to him. He will have to get a team up to get another crack (like dyche) If MP fails at spurs in that, they finish lower than 5th I will think it was more the players he had here than anything he did that was so amazing. But right now, Adkins finished 7th in the championship and MP has gone to spurs Who do I think is the better manager? Poch by an absolute country mile. Right now

Adkins time at reading tells me he was not a that. Regardless of how anyone else does If MP goes the other way with spurs then my view of him will change Generally how it works, but you know that and are just fishing

MP being an excellent manager. Quite obvious I will leave it there as you will revert to type and spam this thread with your "stats"

It was more of who came in, thought MP was a no hoper as I had never ever heard of him Anyway, same old Glasgow Won't be long before the "%" will be used 25 times a day

Funny how Brian mcD won the league with that squad, beating us to the title Wigan who had to play countless more games, changed their manager and lost key players got into the playoffs If Adkins was worth his salt that some describe, he should have got the better of Oscar Garcia's Brighton. Who we shudder to think was linked with us with his striker

If Adkins was any great shakes, he would have made the playoffs with reading He also benefitted from having lambert, Lallana, Morgan and fonte.

Italy have been even worse than us in the build up to this But they are no mugs. World Champions 2 world cups ago and European runners up 2 years ago. They usually arrive when it counts A draw would be good for us. Welbeck has to miss out for sterling Rooney has to deliver I really think that if Rooney or Lallana fail to do much, either will drop out for Barkley for the Uruguay game No doubt Italy will target Johnson as our weak link. He is just so bad. Just so so odd that he is the only right back in the squad when there are 3-4 players other than walker who are better than him who are not in the 23. WTF I'm going for 1-1

See the players are blaming the refs as it was rough out there. Like Valencia kicking off with sterling when he nearly had his leg broken. This is an insight into how central and South American sides play (Brazil apart) and we have 2 of them in our group What was with Sturridge and those step overs? My ratings Hart 7 Johnson 4 Baines 5 Cahill 7 Jagielka 7 Rooney 5 Lallana 6 Gerrard 6 Henderson 6 Welbeck 5 Sturridge 6 Wilshere 6 Barkley 7

That was terrible Can't keep the ball, create little against a poor side and for a while against 10 men. Barkley looked the most dangerous. Lallana poor given that he is subject to a £25m+ move. Rooney was his crap self. Sturridge is quite possibly the most greedy player in the side Thought wilshere done well when he came on and Cahill was pretty good Baines was so dangerous down the left for Everton, what has happened Johnson is simply appalling

Sturridge is the worst for that

Brilliant choice by the FA to play this lot lol

Very poor again from Lallana Seriously, I can see him being dropped. Rooney will not be dropped but will be shoved out wide with Barkley coming in. Be it against Italy or Uruguay

8.1% of Hondurans will be murdered. Stay of the night

Think wilshere has done well since coming on. Nice neat short passes keeping the ball. Far less Hollywood balls now 'stevie' is off

About?

I can seriously see it beings shoot out between Lallana and Rooney for a starting spot as Barkley is going to make the player in the hole position his own

Barkley already looking more of a threat than Rooney
