Iskaral Pust Posted September 26, 2022 Author Share Posted September 26, 2022 Liverpool fans are outraged by TAA’s omission from the England squad, which brings us to new levels of delusion and persecution complex. These are the real areas where our fan base excels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Antony Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 I’d rather he not play but seems odd to not play one of the more creative players in the world when your team can’t score goals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Consigliere Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 Tomori and Maddison are much more egregious omissions. England are stacked at RB/RWB and Reece James is at least as good as TAA. Both James and Tripper have also performed better than TAA in the NT setup. Maguire has been atrocious for a year while Tomori has been among the best CBs in Serie A. Even though Maguire has been better for England, there's no reason to not give Tomori a chance and integrate him into the squad. Similar story with Kane. He plays until he's run into the ground while Southgate refuses to give others a proper chance to integrate themselves into the squad. Maddison has been in excellent form and doesn't even get a call-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The issue for me is that Southgate really should have been building the side around him for a few years now but that ship has sailed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arnold seems to struggle in his defensive duties so I guess that's why he excluded him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polishgenius Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 TAA shouldn't be starting right now, but leaving him out of the squad entirely is weird if you want options. Walker plays for his recovery abilities and being able to cover as a right-sided CB in a back 3, but he offers very little that James doesn't.

Spockydog Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 This Channel 4 coverage is entirely deserving of this shitty game of football. I have no idea what game Joe Cole, incidentally the worst shit pundit in the history of shit pundits, is watching, but it ain't England v Germany. And don't get me started on Graham le Saux.

In fairness it’s your own fault for watching a glorified international friendly. You don’t deserve good punditry if you choose to do that to yourself.

Oh right, that match is tonight. As for pundits at least you have no former City players luading their owners as role models, so stop moaning, or Micah Richards will pop up on your tv screen.

I am a Scottish Gooner, watching an utterly dismal England, led by a Harry Kane who hasn't scored for eons, while Slabhead Maguire continues to make an absolute dunderfuck out of the process of being a professional footballer. So while the match itself may grim and shitty, the inescapable truth is that international football doesn't get much better than this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
