TCO Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 (edited) Tom Ince is a bit of a knob it seems. I remember seeing a potential England under 21 team for the Euros if they played their full strength team in the summer and it was ridiculously strong. But knowing them, most of the good players won't go and everyone will be baffled as to why they're still shit in these tournaments at senior level. Off the top of my head it could be, Butland Chambers - Stones - Jones - Shaw Chamberlain - Wilshere - Barkley - Sterling Berahino - Kane Edited March 21, 2015 by TCO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazz Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 Tom Ince seems like the biggest believer in his own hype. I've no doubt that when Tom Ince is plying his trade in the Conference (ie. 2018), his dad will play the same race card he uses when talking about why he, as an abject failed manager of Macclesfield, MK Dons, Blackburn, Notts County and Blackpool, he doesn't get Premier League management jobs.

stokeriño Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 ^ The rules are that players are eligible for the U21 Euros 2015 if they're born on or after January 1st 1992. Phil Jones was born on February 21st 1992 and Jack Wilshere was born EXACTLY ON January 1st! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Ellis Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 That's cheating. They should have it be as soon as you turn 21, you're ineligible. Then they should start having matches take place as it passes midnight and then players would have to leave the match partway through. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazz Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 It should be to the exact minute of birth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCO Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 That's cheating. They should have it be as soon as you turn 21, you're ineligible. If that was the case then the majority of the players that qualified would be ineligible for the actual tournament. Just looking at the 2009 Germany side that spanked England in the semis. Comparing it to the England team that played that game is pretty interesting. Neuer, Beck, Howedes, Boateng, Boenisch, Hummels, Johnson, Castro, Khedira, Ozil, Wagner. Loach, Cranie, Richards, Onuoha, Gibbs, Cattermole, Muamba, Noble, Milner, Walcott, Johnson. 10/11 of the German team are now full internationals (2 with different nations) and 6 of them are World Cup winners!

brenchill Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 Was Johnson playing for the wrong team that night? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Lineker Posted March 21, 2015 Admin Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 Is that the Johnson that ended up playing for the USA? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazz Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 Yup, Fabian Johnson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCO Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 Yeah that's Fabian Johnson. He's a quality player and probably could've played for the senior Germany side if he had a bit of patience with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brenchill Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 Yeah that's Fabian Johnson. He's a quality player and probably could've played for the senior Germany side if he had a bit of patience with it. Germany have barely any full backs right now so more than likely, yeah.

TCO Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 Oh wow, I only just noticed Shaw is in over Bertrand. Shaw can barely get into United's 18 while on-form Bertrand should probably be starting for England. Aaron Cresswell should be ahead of Shaw too.

Admin Lineker Posted March 21, 2015 Admin Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 Danny Rose and Rob Green have been called up to replace the injured Luke Shaw and Fraser Forster. Jack Butland has also been called up from the under 21's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
