ladysaint Posted 7 April, 2013 Share Posted 7 April, 2013 No doubt this has already been discussed in a thread elsewhere but thought it great yesterday second half when we had on the pitch 6 players who IMO could all play for England. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andre Posted 7 April, 2013 Share Posted 7 April, 2013 I think it's brilliant we have such great English talent in the side. A good half of our regular starting lineup is English, and we have more in the wings. Rodriguez should come straight into the England team ahead of Welbeck, and Lambert should be given a start or two just to see what he's like; Clyne and Shaw will obviously be huge in the future for the country; and Cork and Lallana should definitely get run-outs in a friendly or something as well. We shouldn't get carried away, but we certainly have some great English talent at our club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danish Saint Posted 7 April, 2013 Share Posted 7 April, 2013 Saints are playing a different game than England, so unless they change to more focus on a passing game, none of the players at Saints look likely to even get a sniff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supersonic Posted 7 April, 2013 Share Posted 7 April, 2013 Maybe England need a change of manager to take them to the next stage of World football! This. If you appoint a dull manager, expect dull football. This is the weakest England team I've known for a very long time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good thing having lots of talented English players, it means we don't get too disrupted during international breaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melmacian_saint Posted 7 April, 2013 Share Posted 7 April, 2013 You see, despite the goal, I'm very unsure about the "Lallana for England" shouts. In fact I could see Rodriguez getting in a squad ahead of him and so could Cork. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree. I remain of the view that the backbone of the squad should remain English/British to maintain the 'team spirit' etc with exceptional talent brought in from EU & elsewhere, rather than a collection of mercenaries. (no doubt this will spark the usual outcry). I do however expect to this to change though, with several Spanish, South American players joining in the summer.
