His "brittleness" has been fine under a manager that actually designs a training regime especially for him.

His "lazy ways" is ironically a lazy excuse. He's there to score goals, and his goal per minutes ratio would suggest that he's a little bit good at that.

At least he offers comedy value with his girly running from a wasp sprint.

he does run like a little girl

I feel the same as well as he hasn't had a good season. watching the Alfies boys doc the other night was enlightening about how Alf picked players to fit his system or to do a certain job regardless of whether they were the best individual or not, whereas we seem to be having a succession of managers who pick the best individuals then try and shoehorn them in the side normally out of position, then wonder why it all goes tits up against decent opposition.

Nice start by Rashford, although i'd still prefer Defoe in the squad as he's been a proven goalscorer for more than a couple of months, but I guess it's who you play for that matters as i doub't Rasford would have been near the squad after a few months even if he'd had a better record than he has with utd, if it'd have been for Bournemouth or WBA. .

Henderson is so bad. Hope he doesn't make the squad.

I think Defoe's spell abroad killed off his chances of resuming his England career tbh.

I'm still waiting for Wilshere to prove he is this world class midfielder England can't do without tbh , ive heard about his potential for about 6 years now

John Stones seems to be growing in confidence .

Nice interception and lay-off by Stones there . People forget that he's only just 21.

Feel like I dreamt that Germany performance.

This Australian side is so pedestrian.

Hoddle has started to patronise the Australians,, that could be the kiss of death

I really think we need a new , much younger manager with some fresh ideas .

Maybe someone like Koeman or similar .

On a side note I'm not liking the all red kit but blue socks at all .

Why not all red kit which looks great.

i don't like the new England kits at all,, i hate the stripe across the shoulders and arms , it looks like a cheap training top to me

"Watch England v Wales At Savage's Home"

Only if we get to burn it down afterwards.

Dismal 1st half really. A lot of poor performers so far. Rashford (goal aside) has been poor. Clyne, Sterling and Drinkwater have also all been poor.

One player who I do really like though is Bertrand. I think he's been very good on that left hand side.

I don't get the blue at all, this is England not Team GB.

Ray, what are the odds of me staying awake to see the final whistle?

He's easily twice as solid as Rose, definitely would be my number one.

jordan henderson should be stacking shelves in asda

I actually prefer the West Ham left back Cresswell to any of them tbh

I fear that Roy will build our team around Henderson and Milner

He's not been right all season really, with injuries and the like. He shouldn't be in the squad. (I don't think he has ever been good enough, to be honest)

these friendlies are reminding me of the ones before the world cup. so bad


please get mr blobby or mr bean to replace roy.
