Every one of England's teams at all ages won this week. The home nations are doing well in their groups and teams like Germany, Holland, Italy and Spain are making hard work of it all.1

I'll tell you what the issue is for those Nations... they need a longer winter break!!... Players of that quality shouldnt be expected to play more than two / three times each seasonValleyGary said:Every one of England's teams at all ages won this week.

I am instinctively against having too many foreigners (though how many is too many) playing in the English leagues .. BUT, if their presence is setting a good example to young (or old for that matter) English players in terms of skill and professionalism, then that IS good for the English game and the future of the English national team.1

Am all for the best foreign player in the English Leagues as well... i.e. Thierry Henry / David Silva / Yaya Toure / Didier Drogba / Angel Di Maria / David Luiz for example but then when you get the likes of Kleberson / Eric Djemba-Djemba / Quinton Fortune / Stéphane Guivarc'h etc... playing here and surely being worse than our own youth, thats where we need to sort out the problemsLincsaddick said:I am instinctively against having too many foreigners (though how many is too many) playing in the English leagues ..

It was a deliberate action by all the English teams to crash out of the Champions League and Europa League early to keep our best players nice and fresh.ValleyGary said:

We should do the same next season, and let the Spanish and German players tire themselves out before the Euros!0 -
Pretty decent team if they all go.0 -
Why have they asked Pearce? Bloke is clueless.0
-
Would remove... Jones / Wilshere / Sterling / Shelvey0
-
They all need more tournament experience.0

Was there last night at the Riverside - I thought Carl Jenkinson had a slow start but then really improved. The whole team did well in the second half - some of the Germans probably technically superior especially when holding possession but the English boys fought hard and deserved what they got. If I was Southgate I'd stick with this team and forget some of the 'stars' who don't seem sure if they want to be there.
Hope Danny Ings doesn't go somewhere like Chelsea or City in the summer as well. He needs regular football to develop - would fit in well with Brendan Rodgers style of play at Liverpool.
Also would have been nice to see Joe Gomez and Jordan Cousins in the squad last night, or on the pitch.0
