Rio Ferdinand is a joke.


He's a has been and is bitter that Woy knows that he's not up to it anymore.


Because of that he's just out to undermine the credibility of the manager with stupid suggestions.



Anyway. Why would We care? We've already had an England call-up.

Obviously Woy doesn't think they are up to it. Same reason why none of ours are either. It's not rocket science ;)

Britton was far superior to Henderson last season.

Dyer did far more the Oxlaide-Chamberlain

Sinclair was much better than Downing

And Graham scored more than Defoe and Carroll.

And these players are familiar with a possession style of football that is needed to be successful at International level these days.

Graham is a good player, Woy probably never considered him because bit of a gamble being a uncapped player. The others.........have another Stella fella

Doesn't make Britton anywhere near international quality and Henderson was taken more for experience and development. Likewise dyer v OxC plus I don't think many arsenal fans would swap with you.
I'm amazed that downing was picked but then Sinclair is nowhere near good enough either.
Defoe is a better natural finisher than graham but was only going as a squad player and he has experience. Carroll is the classic British number 9 so not really comparable. Scored a great header too fair play.

In summary, your lot would have brought nothing to the party cos they ain't good enough

So I assume you think that 0 goals and 0 assists Downing was better than Sinclair? Ox who hardly played was better than Dyer who was outstanding last season, and Henderson who is a laughing stock was a better option than the player with the best pass completion rate in Europe which is was England were crying out for.

Ok :?

Brittain superior to henderson i'll give you only because every player in Ragged school was superior to Henderson!!
Ox was a bit player for Arsenal so stats can prob back you up, form and talent cant
Downing was poor this season as was Sinclair didn't kick on from last season worry about him next season one trick pony now found out
Course Graham did he was your main striker the other two weren't you f'ing spanner.
Right now i'm off to bed much love and kisses you mon ami!!

Of course. In the minority though but then you're wearing the old rose tinted spectacles

If anyone argues that Sinclaire or Dyer is better than Oxlade-Chamberlain they need their head checked. Yeas, they're both good players who could both feature at international level pretty soon, maybe in next season's friendlys, but they aren't better than the Ox.

I don't think you can argue that Britton is good enough either. They already had Gerrard, Parker, Milner who are primarily CM's. And they had Phil Jones and Downing who can also play there

On the contrary, I think you're basing your opinion on the fact they play for little old Swansea rather than performances and form in comparison to the other players mentioned.

Neither opinion can be proven of course other than the fact that the other players mentioned had little or no impact on the tournament.

Sinclair or britton won't get anywhere near. Possibly dyer but then I doubt that too unless England pick an experimental side or have loads of injuries

And that's why England will always fail. Players picked on reputation and the clubs they play for.

Britton and Dyer should have walked into that squad on form.

Not good enough simple, much like Rio himself.

Well Roy didn't agree with you nor capello and I can't remember anyone talking about how England were missing them. Apart from the bitter and twisted egotistical Rio of course. Seriously though Sinclair and Britton? Really?

Re: Why no Swans players in the England team

Sat Jun 30, 2012 11:12 pm

Dyer is good but better than Oxlade-Chamberlain? :lol: Dyer played better last season, but he's not a better player. One of my closest friends is a jack and he doesn't think much of Sinclair. As for Graham, indifferent. Britton? He'll only be of any use to England in about 20 years' time when their new football coaching and national centre will have started producing any results :lol:

As I said, on form Britton and Dyer should have walked into that squad.

Britton completely ran games against the likes of Man City, Arsenal and Liverpool last season and Dyer was head and shoulders above any right winger in the country.

Dyer - a bit of an exaggeration. Got in the team of the year did he?
