I'm honestly not remotely bothered that Maddison and Chilwell haven't been picked. I don't think it's focused on that, admittedly that's what the fury is being vented over. However, think this fury is about years of players being picked due to their club rather than their form. That we stick with players with little to no creativity and unless they're a hugely hyped player, they aren't getting played.

Southgate was always unlikely to give him a starting debut in a competitive game.

I'm honestly not remotely bothered that Maddison and Chilwell haven't been picked. Not too bothered about Maddison per say but as a spectator and England fan I’m massively underwhelmed by a midfield that is totally devoid of creativity. It gives the impression that we’re more or less relying on pace coupled with break outs and set pieces to score any goals. I like to get my entertainment by seeing creative football not free kicks, corners and penalties.
ARTY_FOX Posted 10 September 2019 Posted 10 September 2019 Maddison plays for any of the big 6 and he's an England starter. Criminal. For a selfish point of view yea dont play him so he shows southgate on Saturday what an absolute moron he is.
bmt Posted 10 September 2019 Posted 10 September 2019 I know people are saying they don’t care but this actually is a big deal. Why would players want to be part of the Leicester project if they won’t get picked for their country?

If this continues he will definitely go next summer, maybe before. He may well want to go anyway, but this malarky with England isn't helping us to keep him here.
orangecity23 Posted 10 September 2019 Posted 10 September 2019 Ross Barkley has never been good. Plenty of technical ability, but his entire career he's been let down by appalling decision making on the ball. Why we are continuing to pick him I don't know, there is a genuinely exciting crop of young midfield talent starting to come through, but Southgate seems intent on ignoring it to shoehorn in a man who doesn't even get in Chelsea's first 11.
oxtonfox Posted 10 September 2019 Posted 10 September 2019 This manager habit of playing safe has gone on for years. Le Tiz only played 8 times as did Frank Worthington. Both said they would have earned more caps if they played for fashionable bigger clubs rather than provincial ones like Leicester.

Bryn Posted 10 September 2019 Posted 10 September 2019 Barkley has no business being in thile squad let alone the XI and Maddison has done far more than Mount. It should bother Leicester fans because players should feel they will get recognition if they play well at Leicester or they either won't come or will come and only stay a year or two.

But my concern is whether he’ll get it in his head that he needs to go to a big team in order to start for England, and start getting itchy feet.
Nod.E Posted 10 September 2019 Posted 10 September 2019 There's something about how much of a teacher's pet Southgate seems that really grates on me Sings every word to every national anthem. Loves the queen. Hates Sex Pistols. Only drinks water. Grow up, Gareth.

Southgate was always unlikely to give him a starting debut in a competitive game. He gave Mount a debut in a competitive game. He also gave Maguire, Winks and Chilwell debuts in competitive games. Its not like hes scared to. And if you aren't prepared to play a player, why call them up?

Maguire became England's number 1 centre half while here.
