Personally, I'd rather Charlie doesn't get called up yet. He's critical to us at the moment, knowing our rotten luck he'd get injured in an England shirt. That said, he does deserve a chance at the World Cup, by which time he won't be a Ranger anymore
A month or so ago, I'd have said it's a distraction but I think a little confidence boost would be useful now.
I don't think Charlie is critical to us any more, unless we find a way of playing that creates more chances for him.
Think Austin really deserves call up wonder who was last English striker to score 15 goals for team in the bottom 3
Still find it hard to take that Danny Welbeckvis still being picked, Charlie has scored five times more goals than him.
Really hope he gets a call up, just to boost his own confidence. Unfortunately he's very unlikely to be with us next season, an international call up would boost his transfer fee and just think how many goals he could score if he had a decent supply!
Hard for me to see him as an International player, but then England seem very limited these many last year's. Austin has always managed the next step up, so maybe he'll do it again. Thay would be great - a boost of confidence from a good international debut with a goal and a cross like he set up OBZ Sunday will be great for him and us.
