Raheem Sterling and Gomez - "bust up" at England camp

[SebastianBlue]

Gomez was the only Liverpool player there at the time so there wasn't a gang of Liverpool players for starters. What's your actual source here? Some bloke off twitter. People seem to be shit stirring this to epic porportions

Quite an ironic post, not that it should be surprising from someone with that username.

Gareth fucking Southgate, who’s tactics consist of the piece of lard Pickford smashing it down the field to ‘wonderkid ‘ Rashford who promptly knocks it out of the stadium ...Guardiola he is not .

If this information is correct it needs leaking to the press, not that they will probably print it. Fuck Liverpool, fuck England and the FA and fuck Southgate!

skysports said what happened in the tunnel and its there in recording so should be easy to pick it up, and city coaching staff was going mad and they asked the sky people because nobody told them why even the match officials said nothing

Henderson not there apparently as suspended on Thursday and will join the squad later in the week

5 live just now suggested he was there, he went after Sterling, who was all set to pack his bags...

clearly a lot of this is behind the scenes and something else is bubbling ? and for sterling to get a match ban smiles fishy ? some stories about sterling cutting gomez face and the liverpool players in the england sqaud are not happy with sterling and was ready to pull out if the manager did nothing

Pep prepared the team to stand firm and play our football at Anfield for which all us Blues should take heart and be proud. On message Raheem played with honest aggression especially in the second half (in sharp contrast to how Nasri used to wilt at Arsenal away). When Gomez came on he twice elbowed Raheem on the sly to provoke (probably in line with LFC coaching staff instruction). It would have suited LFC if Raheem got a red card and miss Chelsea.
With all the background Southgate should recognise that Gomez played his part in the “handbags”. By just throwing Raheem under the bus he has undone the turnaround of the media and England fans towards Raheem and for that he is culpable. Away fans will be booing Raheem again and the Daily Mail/Talkshite/BBC/SKY will renew character assassination portrayal of England’s best player.

Only caught a couple of moments of reporting of this incident on the tv, well, I have seen a less serious atmosphere at a mass shooting. They are not letting this go now until the nation reverts back to how they were against Raz.He has obviously reared up and if thats through being provoked then well done him.I just hope he can keep himself together for us, I dont care about his England career( I think he does though) but the media are making sure he is portrayed as the culprit here. I always say, if someone takes the trouble to light your fuse,then the least you can do is go off in their face. Come home Raheem, be amongst the people that love you, and get your revenge on the pitch.

true
the dirty work the media are going to say is, its all sterling fault ?? but gomez and the liverpool players are the villain in all of this, they was laughing and talking about sterling so anybody would not just stand there and take it, sterling did what all of us would have done and gomez is a gobshite

I don't think that's true. The current SS site says this, which tallies with how it was reported earlier:

That is when Liverpool captain and senior England midfielder Jordan Henderson is believed to have stepped in to play peacemaker, after Sterling had packed his bags and was preparing to leave the camp.
Henderson, who was yet to arrive at St George's Park, was tipped off by a member of staff at Liverpool about the falling out, so arranged for both Sterling and Gomez to meet in one of the players' bedrooms.

It makes sense - Henderson probably knows both reasonably.
