Raw Dykes Posted 3 September 2014 Posted 3 September 2014 Correct, Carl Jenkinson and Wilfried Zaha can still play for Finland and Ivory Coast, respectively, because the only game they have played for England so far is against Sweden in a friendly. In fact, Diego Costa was capped for Brazil 2 times before he changed allegiance and decided to play for Spain instead. Surprised no-one's mentioned Giggs. Surely the most famous example. Played for England u-21s. Also surprised about Diego Costa. Is that really true? I didn't think you could change nations once you got your first cap.
yorkie1999 Posted 3 September 2014 Posted 3 September 2014 This and the fact that he's not on the same level as Rooney/Welbeck/Sturridge/Lambert.Rooney? He's scored 1 goal in 3 world cups.
Jimmy Posted 3 September 2014 Posted 3 September 2014 Had Arsenal bout Liam instead of Chambers he would have played for England tonight
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 3 September 2014 Posted 3 September 2014 Surprised no-one's mentioned Giggs. Surely the most famous example. Played for England u-21s. He didn't, he played for England Schoolboys which is a different thing entirely.
Carlos88LCFC Posted 4 September 2014 Posted 4 September 2014 This and the fact that he's not on the same level as Rooney/Welbeck/Sturridge/Lambert. Rooney/Welbeck/Lambert as goal scoring strikers are not on another level. Rooney is on another level as the number 10 yes but the other 2 are shite. Sturridge - yes your right... But other than him in England's number 9 shirt.... Who's a better option than Vardy? I honesty can't think! Vardy is electric and gets the team playing to his tempo... I personally think he would do pretty good. Would be a well deserved call up as well from how he's blossomed from non league to being one of the best players in a that won the Championship.

Merging Cultures Posted 4 September 2014 Posted 4 September 2014 there's no reason why Roy won't give them a chance. There is, we are not one of the big clubs. The selection policy for England has been rubbish. It is, are you English? Do you play for a 'big' club? They don't ask if you are any good.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk We should probably wait for him to actually play a full match in the premier league before judging him against players like rooney, welbeck, lambert and sturridge, I have confidence that vardy can do it in the premier league and possibly at international level but at the moment he is unproven at a high level so doesn't deserve a call up until he at least scores a few goals in the premier league.
chris_lcfc_85 Posted 4 September 2014 Posted 4 September 2014 Liam Moore will have a great chance if he continues to play well for us and START for England under 21's regular. As for Vardy, for me its all down to goals. If he plays and scores regular then it will be hard for Woy to leave him out. Withoutn the goals, i cant see it. Drinwkater/James are both 50/50, again depends on consistency. The position they play is harder to be recognised, a bit like Delph. Can play well without beign stand out to others. The Southampton lads managed to show they can jump from league 1 to Prem and get in the England squad with hard work and consistency
Guest Posted 4 September 2014 Posted 4 September 2014 Danny will be in and captaining England before the end of the season. Can't see how you guys miss the class easing from his every move. Danny then bossing the England midfield will give Hodgson the cohones to bring in James, Vardy and Moore and Leicester will be the most represented team in the England starting 11. Well....
SlaneyLCFC Posted 4 September 2014 Posted 4 September 2014 I said Jamie Vardy during the world cup period and subsequently got laughed at on here. Think him and sterling would be a nightmare for opposition.
midland_red Posted 4 September 2014 Posted 4 September 2014 Moore unquestionably, think he is the only one who will be looked at whilst playing for us sadly. agree....yet ive got mixed feelings here. It would be nivce for Hodgson to start looking around a bit more, and it should be an honour to pay for your country. Yet if I'm honest I dont want a key player to get some injury through which could put him out. I think a lot of clubs and players thinks the same way these days - witness 'Arrys comments last night about the dire England performance
Silverdaz Posted 4 September 2014 Posted 4 September 2014 There is, we are not one of the big clubs. The selection policy for England has been rubbish. It is, are you English? Do you play for a 'big' club? They don't ask if you are any good. Look at Shawcross if he played for a BIG club he would of been a England regular by now
Marky mark Posted 4 September 2014 Posted 4 September 2014 Vards Danny or Liam I personally think one of then will make it in a England squad this season
ElsieLC Posted 4 September 2014 Posted 4 September 2014 Nick Powell - played at under-16, 17, 18, 19, 21, so in with a shout!
GingerrrFox Posted 4 September 2014 Posted 4 September 2014 If Jack Colback is getting in the England squad then it's only a matter of time till Danny Drinkwater gets a chance in the England set up.
Merging Cultures Posted 4 September 2014 Posted 4 September 2014 If Jack Colback is getting in the England squad then it's only a matter of time till Danny Drinkwater gets a chance in the England set up. The 'Ginger Pirlo'? smh
DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 4 September 2014 Posted 4 September 2014 I'm old enough to remember Gordon Banks making his debut, and I can also remember how proud of him I was. I would suspect that Moore will be our next England international, as he possesses the quality and charisma, of an ideal international. This season will tell us a great deal about our players, and it is possible that their is a another gem in our midst.
Sgreen56 Posted 4 September 2014 Posted 4 September 2014 Trying to remember the last City player to play for England got us wondering who might be the next. Drinkwater? Vardy? Liam Moore? They'd all be more lively than most of the bunch running around tonight. pearsons son you watch
LCCFox96 Posted 4 September 2014 Posted 4 September 2014 Liam Moore. The fact he was earning high praise from the England set up while playing in the championship says something of their intentions for him. If he can keep his level of current form up I can see him being included within the next couple of seasons. He always has had the makings of a top centre half and those attributes, like pace, strength and reading the game have developed well since breaking into the team If players like Fabian Delph playing at Villa can earn a call up I also see no reason why Drinkwater couldn't soon rather than later either. Marc Albrighton was mooted for a call up whilst a youngster at Villa too.
