This exact reason is why so many English players have missed out on caps despite doing more than enough to get there over some hack playing second fiddle in a “top” side. It’s also why England have failed at every opportunity. I'm all for picking players on form, especially going into tournaments. But I just think that form needs to be longer than a month. As I said though, it shows how limited our options are in that position. If we had fit and quality leftbacks I'm sure he'd have been held back longer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Games against bumfuckistan aren't really helpful for anyone to assess anything though. UEFA are too eager to scoop as much money as possible, regardless of the quality and legitimacy of the competitions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holden McGroin 6918 Posted November 8, 2024 Share Posted November 8, 2024 Let’s be honest. He’d normally have to sustain this level for a longer period of time to get into an England squad. However England have a lack of quality at LB. It’s either play Colwill or a RB there or try Lewis Hall. I heard Leif Davis (of Wallsend Boys Club fame) is getting mentioned as well. I haven’t seen enough of him to comment. Hall also seems to have a good rep in the game and has gone through all the England ladder. I think Tommy T also gave him his club debut which bodes well.

Davis can certainly finish going by last weekends game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 14230 Posted November 8, 2024 Share Posted November 8, 2024 I’m glad he’s getting some recognition but it’s all for nothing really until Tuchel gets in. If he doesn’t fancy him then he’s on a hiding for nowt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wykikitoon 21486 Posted Wednesday at 09:40 Share Posted Wednesday at 09:40 Surely he has to be, one of the best LB in the country right now? Some of the close control he had yesterday with 2/3 players around him was class. He's mint. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His improvement since the start of the season is Joelinton-esque IMO. He's comfortably the best English left back now, I don't even think it's remotely close. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the other options theres no one close to him on current form. That said he's still only a kid, he'll have ups and downs but his ceiling looks to be incredibly high 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
