He's probably played more games than Maguire lately and Phillips who both play for northern clubs, yet get called up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's 23 though, I'd want to be starting him every single game if I could! Pep rarely gives anyone regular game time except Haaland In turn Southgate probably wants someone who plays every game I'd say the lack of consistent game time is more likely the issue than the lad himself But at some point he must think playing every week is important Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you're saying he only gets called up because he plays for a London club? Ok Maguire and Phillips play for Manchester clubs yet get picked It still doesn't make your point any more understandable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a huge fan of Maguire but I also recognise that he's never let Southgate down and is obviously one of his most trusted tournament players like Pickford is, regardless of their club form/appearances. That's why they both keep getting selected and start games, it's almost not even worth people arguing about, that's just how it's going to be until he leaves the job. In years to come we might be watching a 39 year old Foden still ripping it up and say I'm glad we didnt burn him out in his youth by smashing him through every single club and international fixture. I just wish we could watch him play more! Edited September 10, 2023 by Marc505 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L/H White Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 Maguire just needs out of united, his confidence at club level is absolutely shot He's probably been England's most consistent player for the last few years along with Kane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanderlust Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 I didn't think it was the right selection to take on Ukraine but I hadn't banked on so many playing so badly. A few were steady but not one of them had a great game. Even Rice - who I rate - was ball watching for their goal. Maybe Kane even though he was forced into a deeper role? Kyle Walker? But Maddison, Saka et al were way off it and should have been hooked before half time. Not a big fan of Raheem Sterling but if there was ever a time to pick him it was this game as his league form has been so good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's because our options in defence are far more limited and a Maguire who never plays is still better than Tomori or Dunk He's always picking Saka and Kane, and now Madison is playing well in a winning team it's getting the best out of him And then you've got Grealish, Foden, Rashford And Wilson And now maybe Eze With Gallagher coming on for Saka yesterday Lots of competition for basically one starting place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't give a constipated monkey's shite what the Krauts are doing. We now know, via Henderson, what a pile of hypocritical, band-wagonning bollox it's all been but Southall and his core group don't know how to stop it.
