Hope he's not injured. FFS He posted a picture up training yesterday so hopefully the not being in the squad on Sunday was because some players couldn't be selected due to numbers and he was one of them and not because of injury. Wouldn't seem to be the case if he was in full training yesterday. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As long as he’s not injured 🙏 I will be going on a stream to watch Turkey’s match to check on Cengiz again - such a joy to watch against Russia the other day.

RowlattsFox 2,497 Posted 14 October 2020 Report Share Posted 14 October 2020 Barnes was always there to make up the numbers. I'd rather him sit out to be honest. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ric Flair 21,719 Posted 14 October 2020 Report Share Posted 14 October 2020 Looks like several have been omitted which is understandable as its a squad of 30 and only 22 are named in the matchday squad. Given they are all going back to their clubs after tonight, the 7-8 not on the bench tonight might as well go back today. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RowlattsFox 2,497 Posted 14 October 2020 Report Share Posted 14 October 2020 As much as I like Barnes, I don't think he's ahead of those in the squad so no surprise he's not involved. He will have to have a stunning season to be in contention next summer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Agree think he’s behind the likes of Sterling, Rashford, Grealish, Sancho and Greenwood for 1 of the winger spots so will need a very good season/ injuries to others to displace any of them in the Euros squad. Still good experience for him to be called up and get his first cap. Also keeps him fresh and raring to go for us this weekend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Commentators were making excuses for him every time he had a bad touch or gave the ball away. Riles me that the 'big 6' bias always shines through. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Harvey isn't a wing back. its pretty simple - saka is able to play there. and saka is the only left footed player able to play wide left. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sunbury Fox 1,595 Posted 14 October 2020 Report Share Posted 14 October 2020 Cags not even on the bench for Turkey - what is going on with him? He's missed all 3 games for Turkey in this break. Cengiz is starting, though, as is Youri for Belgium and Evans for NI. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Brendan has obviously used his Turkish language skills to have a chat with the coach and ask him to rest him for the games as we’re a bit short at the back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Let's face it if you play in the Premier & are English the chances are that you will get at least 1 cap Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Turkey has a few good CBs at the moment and Demiral was class last game. I think Kabak plays better with Demiral. Demiral is calmer than Cags, who can be a little short tempered and emotional, which can be contagious, especially for a young player. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Paninistickers 2,344 Posted 14 October 2020 Report Share Posted 14 October 2020 I wonder if players really do think it's their 'proudest moment' when receiving an international call.up? I get it for championship plodders like David Healy or Stuart Dallas or Robert Earnshaw. It's their only chance of big time football. But after the buzz of the first 5 caps, I reckon top level players secretly find the whole thing an absolute ball ache Quote Link to post Share on other sites

darko2k7 288 Posted 14 October 2020 Report Share Posted 14 October 2020 Why do we need 2 keepers on the bench ? Surely better to have a extra outfield player, not just Barnes but any outfield player would make more sense 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pliskin 2,783 Posted 14 October 2020 Report Share Posted 14 October 2020 Southteeth really is a scrubber. Phillips who’s barely kicked a ball in the PL gets straight in, Barnes not even on the Bench. Farce. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TK95 2,291 Posted 14 October 2020 Report Share Posted 14 October 2020 They asked Steve McClaren on 5 Live this morning if the criticism Southgate gets for playing defensive is understandable. His response was England don't have the attacking midfielders to play another way. Guy is an absolute plonker and a reflection of what the FA recruit Quote Link to post Share on other sites
