  1. How is Alex Scott in anyway supposed to be on the same level as contribution as Cara and Redknapp? Has she had an England call up? No. Because she plays for the women’s England team! Sky are just scraping the barrel for pundits. Got nothing against women in football but not as a pundit for a men’s game, it should only be for ex players/managers who have had that experience at that level to empathise and analyse the current players at the level that ex player used to play at other wise what’s the point? May as well have anyone on? League 2 players, ordinary fans etc.

  2. Can’t stand these posturing male pundits, pointing out the bloody obvious which you’ve just watched with your own eyes. Look like they spend more time in make up than the ladies.😂😂😂

  3. I'm not surprised we're having this conversation. The last 25 years of the Premier League should be an indication as to where we are at with England and why. The simple to answers is the lacking in real quality and the amount of foreign players in our English League.

    I completely agree with Jamie Carragher that it seems players don't really have to do a great deal to catch the Manager's eye, but then, that's not Southgate's fault because he doesn't have that ample amount of 'stock' to choose from.

    I am tiring of the pattern of the same players being picked though and individual's like Troy Deeney don't even get a look in.

  4. All of this is solved by player not going to massive clubs. Loftus-Cheek is getting 60K a week, with the money of the PL I'm sure another club like West Ham or Bournemouth would love to have him and could afford him but players feel this massive need to be a part of a big club to be considered relevant. 30 years ago a lot more clubs were a lot more competitive and it's a crying shame that the season is basically scripted essentially because of money.

  5. England fail as a nation because they are so bloody fixated with the number of goals an individual scores rather then their ability on the ball. The other obvious problem is that we just don’t have that special special player like a hazard, mmbappe, Neymar etc only wish bale was English. We’ve just got a bunch of good players but nothing extra special since probably Gazza.

  6. I wholeheartedly believe that we won't have a truly successful national team while the premier league is how it is. The financial repercussions of relegation or missing out on the top four mean that managers aren't going to persist with young players who inevitably will make mistakes as part of their development, especially in an environment where managers are only four bad results away from getting sacked. The other issue that comes as a result is the stockpiling of players. Loftus-Cheek, Drinkwater and Barkley are all decent examples of players good enough to start regularly for numerous premier league clubs but are finding game time difficult to come by. It is however refreshing to see young players such as Sancho, Lookman, Oxford etc. going abroad in search of game time. That for me is the best way of trying to address this issue. Not only because it will result in our players being given more game time, but it all means it could be stifling the development of other nation's young talent.

  7. These are a bunch of jealous ex pros. "Luke Shaws only played 4 games" erm the season just started last month? What about that pass he gave against Spain for Rashford.

  8. In the passed if you wasn't playing regularly for your club,(First team) you would'nt get picked for the England team.Thats all changed now under southgate.Loftus -cheek chosen for the world cup & a few others who wasn't playing that regular etc jones,stones got selected whereas Smalling wasn't & was playing often. How many games did loftus cheek play for Chelsea's first team last yr? Can't of been many.

  9. I get Jamie's point but what you gonna do when half of the country's best players are bench warmers. Only a hand full of English play regular minutes and only 1 or 2 are star players for their club teams…

  10. England have never really selected player's based on actual performance and current form.
    G Murray, Troy D, C Wilson
    Should of all been in the squad but they dont fit the profile and southgate hasn't got the Courage to pick player's based on merit rather than who those who played for an england youth team and the usual top 6 sides

  11. Only if you play for the top 6 clubs then it's piss easy. You can play 6 games the whole season and still get picked. Just ask Jack Wilshire when he was at arsenal

  12. Carraghers right an the reason is… England lack quality that they used to have. England could be more choosy when to cap a player.

    Just the gk an Strikers

    Flowers/walker/Seaman/Martyn

    Strikers. Ian Wright , Michael Owen, Les Ferdinand, Teddy Sheringham, Andy Cole, Shearer, Robbie Fowler.

  13. How is Loftus-Cheek going to play at Chelsea ahead of Jorginho, Kante and Kovacic? He's not better than any of them. Fabregas is not even play.

  14. The England manager can’t win regardless of who he picks or what he does etc. It really does seem like a poisoned chalice the England job, we’ve just reached a World Cup semi-final and yet the negativity that surrounds the national team never seems to go away. I think we have some really talented players and the future looks bright. Carragher and Redknapp at times just come across as bitter ex pro’s to me.
