I find myself agreeing with Reg again.  Sturridge is "ok", he is most certainly not an intelligent player - he is a very selfish one and is quite often blind to what is going around him within his own team on the pitch.  Nothing wrong with a selfish player, in the right position, but he drops too deep.
Sterling, right now, seems like just the next in a long line of players who have their best year in their breakthrough year.  Little vision, poor finishing, poor final ball, getting worked out.  I hope I'm wrong on that, but the past provides an insight into his future.

Well I fucking disagree with Reg and his lazy regurgitated stereotypes.

Wales isn't a principality.

It bloody winds them up though, which is why I keep saying it is.

Bit late, so apologies, but Sturridge was the only England forward to look for, find and exploit space in and around the box during the entire tournament. In the one half he was allowed to play as a centre forward anyway.

Obviously I'd love to see Charlie pull on an England shirt, though, so if we're advocating that Sturridge be dropped for Austin then count me in ;-)

Just occurred to me, but wasn't Big Sam rumored to have offered his services for 6 months when we were between managers a few years ago?

Think it was Fitton who said no, something about too much potential media attention.

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?

 So Sam, calls up the failures from the summer for the WC qualifier  Sad  I had hoped for a sign that he might have some players from lower down the pecking order in mind....like Flint and Charlie Austin.

 I suppose he thinks if he can let loose his sports psychologists on them they might remember how to kick a ball properly etc.

Sterling looked less than useless today. Perhaps Pep has had a positive influence on him, a pep talk if you will?

Luke Shaw is going to be our left back for years so good to have him back fit again. Antonio seems like a decent utility player also.

Briliant find.  Should get Joe Hart to do the Pep talk.

Wasn't Allardyce embracing all this stuff years before many European managers were anyway..... or was that spin? I remember various interviews about such things when he was at Bolton?

One game reign? Nothing massive incriminating in there but all a bit embarrassing isn't it!
