Turkish Posted 8 August, 2013 Share Posted 8 August, 2013 Wow! As a Saints fan i'm not to happy about him playing for England 3 days before the season starts but as a Lambert fan fair play to the lad, it's a bit Roy of the Rovers for him and nice to see there is still a bit of romance in football.

The9 Posted 8 August, 2013 Share Posted 8 August, 2013 Despite all the striker injuries, it's fair to say that's a bit of news I was not expecting to hear! Let's put it this way, I turned off SSN after the League Cup draw. Congratulations to him, it only took injuries to the entire England attack, him completely losing form, Grant Holt signing for a Championship side and a friendly against a footballing third world nation for him to get the call.

SuperSAINT Posted 8 August, 2013 Share Posted 8 August, 2013 Very pleased. (And very proud). I'm sure I saw Roy interviewed talking about Grant Holt & Rickie, saying that they aren't of the desired quality. Anyone else remember that? - I think it was from when Rickie & Holt were on Goals on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevegrant Posted 8 August, 2013 Share Posted 8 August, 2013 great news but i guess it's highly likely he'll be as invovled as Lallana was before. Disagree, Lallana was called up as a late replacement due to a load of injuries and it was a competitive game so only 3 of the subs could actually get on the pitch. As this is a friendly, Hodgson will be able to use 6 (I think) from the bench, and despite being named in the squad I'd fully expect Rooney to drop out.
