Not particularly, I don't have a strong view on it. I respect the view of the England manager from the position of watching every game. If he drops Hart then I'm sure it'll be for the right reasons. Equally, if he plays him, that tells me he's seen that he is good enough. I don't know who England's best goalie is, but I do know that there's more to it than just picking a new target every few years, everyone agreeing how **** he is and expecting the manager to feel obliged to go along with it. At the last Euros it was Sterling who was getting no end of ****. He's proven people wrong. No one admits to moaning about Rooney now but there were constant calls for about 5 years to get him out of the setup. There's always a public enemy with England.
Might as well close the forums , no debates or opinions needed . Everybody is brilliant and deserves a place in the squad , end of story
I recall Butland playing for Birmingham at the circle. He was touted as the next big thing even then. He was $HITE that day. Conceded five and couldn't catch a cold.
Nah I like the world cup regardless Maybe when the world cup goes 48 teams might qualify But even then it's a long shot
Opens up a England's best goalkeeper debate.... Me top five, not in order order: Banks, Shilton, Clemence, Swift, Springett.
You might be out of luck there... 2022 World Cup expansion to 48 teams opposed by top European leagues "We are not prepared to make any changes on the calendar for expanding the 2022 World Cup," Lars-Christer Olsson, CEO of the 32-member European Leagues group, said on Monday. "We have already been flexible to allow the World Cup to be played in the [Qatari] winter and have agreed the dates," Olsson said, adding "we are not prepared for the duration of the World Cup to be any longer."
