I'm happy he's been called up, jrod that is but Roy hodgeson does annoye me
"Danny Welbeck at the moment has been injured. We hope and believe he will be fit to play - but I see Rodriguez as someone who could possibly fill that Welbeck role."
Roy Hodgson
Why can't a player just be picked for doing well rather than just being an injury replacement. Same thing went for Lambert, Roy just has to make the point that they wouldn't be here if it weren't for injuries.
The issue with the Lyon method is the teams they were selling their star players too, aren't in the same league as them, thus allowing them to maintain a high leugue position.
The issue we'd probably have is our players would be getting picked off by our rivals in the league I.e Chelsea Arsenal and so on (if the champions leugue aim is true that is) not just foreign clubs. Especially as a number of our better players are English, and if it's not then we're just strengthening them further and making it even harder to progress in the leugue ourselves.

That would just be like having two Wanyamas in the squad, however one being very good, young, and improving. The other being Mariga whose 5 years older and haven't done much at all since leaving Parma.
