Hodgson is an awful fit for this and any England squad.

he will be on him way soon enough, don't come out with a new revolution then stick with the old guard, bought barkley on far too late in the games when we were chasing and the space in behind had gone.


you really thought barkley made any difference? lol

I shouted so loud for that Suarez goal ive lost my voice! Felt like a Spurs cup win!

Now go home England, sack dinosaur hodgson and drop the shitty mediocre over the hill players + start playing Spurs players.

Henderson starting instead of Barkley
Welbeck starting instead of Lalana

Should be sacked just for those 2 decisions alone

Please don't ever call Lamela world class.

Neither is eriksen but they both have the potential to. And they both would walk into the England team and piss all over the likes of Lallana, welbeck, sterling and Barkley

Christian and Erik would piss all over them

Suarez is such a crazy little passionate bastard, I think he wold literally fight to the death out there.
I think a player like that is the difference between Spurs & Liverpool also. Suarez only missed 5 games (the first 5 of the season) and Liverpool scraped 3 x 1-0 wins (Stoke, Villa & a shit Man Utd) had a draw with Swansea and lost to Southampton. Take Suarez out (and I don't think he will leave unfortunately) and Rodgers won't look such a genius.

I'm not suprised this is the state of out national team with the amount of foreign players in the PL.
Here's the thing though, the PL is also at its strongest right now. So thats not the problem. The issue starts at the youth levels. But the amount of foreign players in the PL will continue to increase when clubs know they can sign foreign players of similar quality at cheaper fees than english players at bloated fees.

Well, that was short lived and whilst expectations were low, it's another reminder just how far short England are of ever truly testing the worlds elite at competition level.

Time for Shaw, Barkley and Lallana - no point in persisting with the old guard for Costa Rica and as for Gerrard, I think he could well be mentally broken.
What you will find is woy will be even more conservative in that game.

Doesn't make Lamela anywhere near world class. People are so mislead by price tags.
