Well I think people think he is a poor mans wilsher and he's poor to start with .<bubbly>
 
Cleverly being crap does not mean that AJ should be in the squad, I would like our players to do the talking on the field as well as off it.
 
He seems to be having a dig at the England set up by stating that he has been overlooked for England because he is not in a top eight team.
In an article in the Northern Echo, he goes on to say that he got all his England caps when playing for Man City despite spending most of the time on the bench, and then gets overlooked when playing for Sunderland even though he is a first team regular who had the best spell of his career in January and February..
I certainly think he has a point..

Always been the same.

Dave Watson was brilliant for Sunderland and played odd games for England, usually in non-important games.
He went to Man City and was an England regular despite his form at Maine Road being erratic.

It f**king stinks and is one of the reasons I lost interest in the national team.
 
hes been taken off in the last three games for doing nothing ,how can this help his cause

<doh> Oh the last three games coincide with him not getting picked for England - perhaps his confidence has been knocked by Roy Hodgson picking 4 wingers with a combined total of 4 goals and 1 assist ahead of him? How would you feel if your colleague, performing badly at work, got promoted to a job you went for ahead of you? Would you just think "Oh well he deserves it"? I certainly wouldn;t
 
Of course, he has a point. He's spot on. He was picked for England when he was a bench-warmer and now he's on fire and can't get a game. Only the myopic or intellectually stunted would disagree.


He has a point, absolutely. Cleverley, Townsend, Milner, Young, Sterling to name but a few shouldn't be considered.

But if he really wants to make a point/name for himself he needs to do more than a 2 month magic spell.

Agree with the majority of this but, being an LFC fan, I have to take exception to the bit in bold. Sterling and Johnson (Adam) have been the form wingers this season. Performances and stats don't lie. I'd take them both. If Young goes, Hodgson needs to slice the top of his head off like a boiled egg and give his brain a good wash in lye! <ok>
 
Didn't Mickey Gray and Gavin McCann get capped with us? The problem with AJ is his consistency, if you ask me. If he plays out of his skin all well and good, but he didn't do himself any favours in the LC final.
 
Hi problem is that England have a lot of talented wingers now, Sterling, Chamberlin, Townsend, Rodriguez, Lennon. Plus Hodgeson loves Milner. Its going to be very difficult for Johnson to get a game. Lets face it he has had 3 or 4 really good games for us and loads of bad ones so its going to take a bit more for him to get an England spot.

He does have a bit of a point though because players like Cleverly who are bang out of form and not getting a first team stat for their club still get picked

REALLY? If Lennon is considered 'talented' then by comparison Johnson is in line for Ballon D'or.

The FA need ripped a new arsehole, sooner or later somebody (probably Joey Barton) will do it, and expose them for what they are, there's only one reason why Woy got that job and it's because he's just a stupid, old, dumb **** who will bend over all day long for FA pipe.
