How long until he starts for England? Every time I watch him he really impresses me. He has to get a run in the England team soon don't you think? Great player
I agree with this, he has looked far far better than a lot of players being picked for england currently
When's the next friendly? I reckon he'll get the call for that, hopefully with Puncheon and Lambert as well.
To be honest, I doubt Puncheon will get a call up. But I think he'd like to give Lambert and Lallana a try. I think he's mentioned them before, unless I dreamt that.
There's still plenty of time. If Lallana has the kind of consistent season we all hope, I'm sure he'll be talked about.
Lallana won't get picked regularly whilst he's at Saints He deserves it though, outstanding season so far
If we stay up this season, it will be because of the sorts of performance we've seen today from Lallana, Puncheon, Clyne, Cork, and Lambert, with Luke Shaw getting an honourable mention. All of them will have earned an England call-up if we play consistently for the rest of the season. And that's just the English players of course.
The last thing we should want his him playing for bloody England!! Higher risk of injury and tiredness from travelling. He'll be mixing with mostly, a bunch of overpaid twonks. Media hype over him would increase. Playing for England isn't anything to aspire to anymore, its more of a curse on players.
Might be the last thing we want... But I imagine he wants it, probably one of his biggest dreams, and would be a huge moment in his life. If he gets the call-up and a game, I'll be absolutely chuffed for him, he deserves it. I'd be watching through my fingers though, praying for no injuries.
Sorry, but it's still the very top level. The World Cup is the pinnacle of football, and so playing for your country is a massive ambition for any footballer.
Thought you lads might agree. I think its true he probably would of been picked previously if he'd played for say, Liverpool. Which is wrong. I agree he is better than Shelvey, Cleaverley and already performing in the Premier League which means he should be over Zaha - Roy is listening to the press there. He's in a lot better form than Gerrard to - but you can't replace the captain.
Regardless, if the squad was announced tomorrow I think he'd be a shoe-in... Unfortunately England's next game I believe isn't until early February, so a long wait and a long way to go for him yet.
