    another dickhead who thinks he can pick and chose.



    Jack Grealish has a Brummie accent and is a product of Aston Villa's academy... he cannot be attacked for his decision to play for England over the Republic of Ireland
    • Jack Grealish has chosen to play senior international football for England
    • Grealish was eligible to play for England or the Republic of Ireland
    • The 20-year-old has impressed in midfield for his club Aston Villa
    • Roy Hodgson names his squad for the Euro 2016 qualifiers on Thursday

    Sorry mate have you misunderstood the point?

    He's English and he's chosen to play for England instead of RoI as a result of said Englishness.

    Tell that to Giggs. Would you tell him he couldn't play for Wales?

    Parentage should gave a say in your choice. IMO that's as far as it should go! Not grandparents but parents. What if you are on holiday in Spain and go into labour prematurely? Then raise a boy who turns out to be a footballer. Should that person have only Spain to choose as the international country

    That sounds a little bit like slavery mate. You can't own a person, not outside North Korea.

    Alfredo di Stephano who Pele described as the greatest footballer ever, somehow qualified to play for Argentina by birth, Colombia by parentage and Spain by grand parentage.

    He may regret his decision. Not sure he is England material, let's see how many caps he gets

    Seems to have some talent but seems to be a bit of a daft lad so I don't know how far he'll actually go.

    Good luck to him I say. If I was in his position I know what I'd do.

    The father of Jack Grealish has revealed that Republic of Ireland manager Martin O'Neill got in touch to offer his best wishes to his son, despite the 20-year-old Aston Villa midfielder deciding to represent England rather than the Republic at international level.
    Big deal get a life your not international class <bubbly>

    He'd walk into the Sunderland team and quite a lot of international teams. Not really sure where the Grealish hate comes from.
