Am i alone in thinking he is fast becoming one of the best players in world football.
In my opinion if he stays injury free for the next few years he really could become a great in the game.
Was brilliant tonight..his temperament and workrate is superb and for me he could go on to be one of the best.

For me, he'd be the first name down in my England midfield.

Personally think Adam Johnson on the other side has as much if not more potential, but boyh are a step up from our wide options of recent times and should form the main stay of the midfield for the next couple of WC cycles.

Indeed. I know Dave has been calling for Adam Johnson for England on here for a while now and you can see why. Always seems to cause no end of problems for the opposition.

This. Both are quality. Johnson seems to get better by the game.

He is over-rated and gets found out against better teams

Don't they all

Milner is so consistent and just keeps improving. He will never be superstar class because he lacks real pace.

I will take this into consideration when you are selling one of his shirts.

 :)

that made me laugh a little too much.

The guy never seems to have a bad game and can play any position he is asked to to a good standard its ashame there arent more players like him in our England squad.

Watching England now, compared to watching England at the World Cup is like watching Pat from Eastenders present 'This Morning' compared to watching Holly Willoughby presenting 'This Morning'.

Fully expect England to finish group with 100% record while looking world class and then let us all down as normal during the Euro's.

Milner is really starting to come on at international level but as others have said the potential of Adam Johnson is pretty damm exciting.

You can get 11/2 for England to have a 100% record in qualifiers with William Hill. You can have 7/1 with me if you want.

Isn't it ironic that we get a naturally left footed player...and he plays on the right of midfield.

The current 2 performances are a breath of fresh air compared to the shite in the summer, but with the realisation that Capello will bring back in Ferdinand and co., when they don't deserve to.

With Milner suspended for the next game, I'd put Johnson on the left, with Theo on the right, and see how they do.

Agreed. I'd bet money that Gerrard ends up on the left though with Fat Frank coming back in.

Bugger me thats a good price, last night was the hardest game on paper IMO.

I'd be tempted to put Shaun Wright Phillips on the right. He played really well when he came on yesterday. Agree about johnson on the left, he can't do much more than he has.

Capello seriously can't start Lampard and Ferdinand next game... i can maybe understand Terry in for Dawson/Lescott.

Seriously?! He was dreadful...

Surely, presuming Walcott is fit, Adam Johnson just replaces the suspended Milner, and Terry comes in alongside Jags? Why make any other changes?

My judgement may have been clouded by the fact I was sober but I thuoght he gave us a useful outlet last night.

Would rather we gave that young Villa winger (Albrighton?) a game rather than Wright-Phillips.

If Walcott is injured, i'd have Young on the left and Johnson on the right.

I'd rather give any other English player a game than Wright fucking Phillips.

Terry must never darken England's door ever ever again and Lampard and Ferdinand for that matter.Jagielka and Cahill/Lescott must be given a chance to cement their partnership.Midfield is working far better without Lampard.

i concur

You obviously missed the 2 on 1 situation, where all he had to do was square the ball to Bent at he had a tap in. SWP passed it to the only Swiss defended which made me post :

SWP is shite.

He was shite also at the World Cup, and Johnson has proved over the last week that he should've gone in the first place.

Think Capello only put SWP on so that we could laugh at an England side having 6 Man City players in it......Micah Richards must have done something really really bad.

agreed, he's decent
