Title: Transfer predictions
Post by: The Blue Blooded Maniac on June 25, 2015, 09:17:30
Which England under 21 player will be paying over the odds for in the next few seasons to warm our bench in the league cup?

There does seem to be a disappointing lack of skill and desire from English players at all levels. Has there been a true potential world class England player since Gazza? Gazza definitely had the potential but it was in the main wasted.

I think Joe Cole had the potential but England wasted him by trying to turn him into a left winger, which Chelsea also tried to after as well...

The video of that Patrick Roberts kid looks promising.
Chelsea have a few decent England kids up and running...

We just need to start having a bit of faith in the kids

Rooney, Terry, Ashley Cole, Fat Frank, Stevie G, Scholes

He's certainly got drive in midfield that we've been missing

Its all opinions Gav but I think those would have got in the top club teams, Frank got 147 goals from midfield at Chelsea

Hard to see any world class talent now from British players. Almost distinct !

extinct ?

Bale, Wilshire........ thats it

part of the reason why I think if we need  HG players we should get get a couple of freebie bosnans, squad type players who dont cost much, Micah Richards wouldve been ideal

Could we be signing two top class players next week. I have not seen much of either, but Pogba and De Bruyne look possible. They both have points to prove against former clubs in the league, which can only help. I have decided Toure cant be kept if Pogba comes in, please.

Burgerstain is apparently at the Copa America - hope they help out those with visual impairments -if he takes his white stick he should be alright. One or two must be coming in from Latin America, hope they are more Pelles choices than Burgerstains.  The work rate/will to win of some of those teams and players is something some of the Brits need to copy.

Someone told me that we will sign DeBruyne, Pogba and Sterling in the next week. Not convinced myself.

True, and we cant even do that as well as the rest, except Toure.
