Lets ignore Iaspas, "The Welsh Xavi", Borini, Kolo, Assaidi, and Sahin,
Transfer market is a crap shoot.. If you can get three players like Sturridge, Coutinho and Mignolet then you

I don't know why the FA just wont destroy and rebuild. They've seen what happened with the Spain and Germany national teams once their FA's saw that their national team was becoming(in spains case being larry holmes indefinitely)
It's such an obvious move, but it seems there is too much politics and cowards getting in the way of England building a team that can actually challenge for an international trophy. This generation of English footballers are fuccing horrible.
While the FA are a bunch of idiots, after all they did shut down Lilleshall
they aren’t the main problem. The issue is, the PL and its clubs have more power than the FA do and until they start seeing a drop in their revenue, they’re going to continue to give zero fukks about the NT. Hopefully Greg Dyke can do something along with this commission hes put together can come up with something fresh and game changing.England just aren’t producing keepers, defenders or strikers anymore, its like the only thing we can get right is midfielders and even then, we only get 1-2 really really top draw ones in the generation, the rest are good players but just don’t have that something special.
One a separate note, 92 professional teams and the league cup is just far too much, its such a drain on the resources. You can see why Wenger doesn’t take the league cup seriously as a competition, those dates could be better used for the league.
By the time France 2016 comes I want the team to be younger, average age of 24-26
no i'm not saying they are as good as the invincibles. what im saying is that if you can sign quality players, it does not matter if you whiff on a 2 or 3.hold up, this Mignolet thing is real?
