Reliably informed that Andros Townsend has been selected in England squad for World Cup qualifiers

The team is announced later today (not sure when)

3:30 I believe. Great news for Andros if so. He will be so up for the NLD.

 

[tiger666]

Ross Barkley and Andros Townsend named in England squad for World Cup qualifiers against Moldova and Ukraine - more on #SSN now

 

[OsvaldoVilla]

Great news and well deserved. Hopefully that will put an end to any talk of him leaving

 

[SugarRay]

Delighted for him.

As an England fan, international football still holds a lot for me. Seeing Tottenham players make the squad is always pleasing. Seeing Tottenham youth graduates make the squad is extremely pleasing!

 

[TaoistMonkey]

ahh good for him. He's impressed me over the last couple of games.

Congrats AT, tear it up!

 

[absolute bobbins]

Am I massively biased? Daws is far superior to Phil Jagielka

 

[beats1]

He is playing well and like all young fast wingers he has the ability to beat players for fun. However then these players are all of sudden, are targeted and doubled marked. This will be the most important point of his career and that is the thing that sets the Bales and Lennon apart imo. Even Walcott is finally over that as well though he doesnt have quality of bale he is a very good player.

We will see how he turns out and good luck to him.

 

[WiganSpur]

Delighted for Barkley as well, great to see some good footballers in there for once. Hopefully it won't be long until it's Tommy Carroll's turn.

Sterling and Milner

 

[Shadydan]

Delighted for the lad, just hope he keeps his head down and carries on doing what he does best.

 

[OmarsComing]

Ridiculous that Smalling and Jones are in the squad but Dawson isn't.

 

[Courtneyjd]

Well done AT, well deserved!

 

[Parklane Block 34]

Well done Andros well deserved!

As for Walker how he is a professional footballer let alone and international is beyond me.

He's an athlete but never a footballer. But hey people seem to rate him so its probably just me.

 

[nightgoat]

How on earth does Smalling continue to be called up?

[DEFchenkOE]

Sterling and Milner

LOL, have no idea how Milner gets in the team. But then again could say the same about Defoe, Hasn't started any games this season.

Probably says more about the talent pool than anything else, JD will be lucky to be on the plane to Brazil if he stays with us imo.
