Zaha is eligible for U21s and hasn't been picked, so getting him for the senior squad would make the u21s a complete force. Roy said that he didn't pick Grealish because he's play against Ireland and didn't want him to get a hostile reception. However, he was fine with giving Kane first start against arguably the hardest defence to play against. And Grealish is eligible for u21s too
Spell check really was a great invention. You can't say though that the U21s takes priority and then pick players eligible for the senior squad, even if Southgate has deemed them not good enough as in Zaha. I don't think Grealish has done enough yet to earn a senior call. Was very interesting listening to Southgate talking about his squad selection and saying that its about evolving to a more possession based game and he's picked players which fit into that. If only Roy did the same, Shelvey deserves a shot, but I don't see why Walcott and Welbeck are in it either. Theo's just back from injury and Welbeck is just Welbeck
So much bitterness Fact is, you lot know nothing about Vardy, if you he played for Burnley you'd not bother, you just take it personally coz its Leicester. Not all strikers need to score 20 odd, the fact he has so many assists means nothing does it? Give the lad a chance before you write him off but no, he plays for Leicester so of course not. As for Deeney, he's never proved himself anywhere but the championship, albeit for a short time As of yet, Vardy has
.that player who runs around a lot has the third most assists in the PL this season ...it's not just about who actually puts it in the net ... if they don't get given the bullets ...
... in your opinion of coutse ... you'd have been laughed at for such a notion (the cap that is) on other boards ...
I don't think many of us believe that he's one of the top 4 English we have. But he's been absolutely fantastic for us, and played a massive part in our great escape. We are delighted for him, and understandably so.
He was absolute dog **** for 31 games, he looked way out of his depth. He's turnednitnon and had a decent 8 games. He's still ****. Even if we hd two u21's tournaments, he shouldn't even make the B team. I take issue with it because he's absolutely ****ing ****e. You lot can take your outrage and **** off. He's ****e, you know it, I know it, end of story. I'll judge him better when I see him in the champions league next season for Chelsea/Man City/Bayern Munich...
Vardy's call-up reminds me of Vassell's. OK, Vassell had more quality on the ball, but his main attributes were similar: pace, teamwork and nuisance value.
... we had Vassell too - quality on the ball? couldn't trap a wet bag of cement ... Vardy is far better IMHO
... you'll be wishing you had him on Sunday - he scored 1 and made the other 4 of our 5 goals against Man Utd at our place ... confident that you have someone in your squad that will have that impact?
