Our England prospects?

Mon Nov 25, 2013 12:32 am

How does everyone rate our players' chances of getting an England call up this season? For me Caulker will definitely be an England regular in a year or two, he's just fantastic. There's also been talk of Ben Turner being involved, maybe it could happen, probably not though.

Whitts and Mutch could get a call if they keep up the good work. Whitts showed today with his passing accuracy that he would be a good shout for them, and Mutch has been excellent this season and I don't think I need to explain him.
Fraizer already has a cap, could he get another? Some people saying he's worth a shout. I don't see why not.

And another which has been mentioned on here once which I was thinking about. Ashley Cole is at the end of his England career, WC2014 will be his last. What other left backs do they have? I can't think of any better than Taylor. A long shit I know but I just can't think of another English left back.

I'm not saying these should all be regulars, but maybe a friendly call up wouldn't be too much :ayatollah:

I dont think Taylor will appreciate you calling him a long shit.

Taylor will never get near the England squad. They are well stocked in that position.

I think Mutch might if he continues to develop like he has since the start of the season.

Turner may pick up a few caps in the future but Caulker will be a regular starter in a few years for them.

We need to create more chances for Campbell to score if he wants to get a look in again. He is a player who thrives off of chances with his movement off the ball.

Never knew Danny Rose and Luke Shaw were left backs, forgot about Gibbs.

Never mind :lol:

They would need cover, as Cole should be calling it a day soon. But Shaw and Gibbs definitely fit the bill so they're alright there
