One RB again, how many more **** games does Walker have to have before we can start talking about Clyne? :)




PS Roy will almost definitely stick with Joe Hart, he'll be the second best GK on the pitch though.
 
Great news about Rickie, but, to be honest, couldn't see him not getting a call up. Not as if he did anything wrong. He has said that he won't start, but hopes he can go to Brazil as an option. And so say all of us, SRL.

Hmm, yes we used to say the same about Matt Le Tissier, but they used to astound everyone time and again, with his omission. OK, Rickie may be less of a one-off than Matty was, and someone England can fit into their system, but it'll be a few more years before I'm utterly confident of a Southampton player making an England squad.

Still very odd to find myself being interested in an England squad. ;)

Cue Luke limping off the pitch on Sunday
 
Don't forget Lambert hasn't got the problem of being a scoring midfielder. England Managers seemed to think Le Tissier was a striker and either played him up front or on the wing. The one time he got into the centre midfielder position (wandered in there) he nearly scored a blinder from distance.

Rickie has also scored. He will go to Brazil unless he's injured but I think he will only be back up from now. Although saying that Rooney's been beaten up in training again :)

Lloyd Isgrove is in the Wales senior squad to play Macedonia and Belgium.



Yes, Wales really are that bad.
 
Just to say that I like Isgrove, think he will be a good player, so congrats to him. But his professional career currently is 1.5 games in the milk cup.

Sad thing for Wales is, they do have a handful of decent Premier players, but most of them have little interest in digging in for their country. They really need to beat Macedonia if they want to get out of the also rans pots for the next qualifying tournament and give themselves a chance. Anyway we've done our bit with Bale...who they will never see again.
