Isn’t he thinking about playing for Scotland?I’d actually have called up Gordon who I think has been better than both of them and more consistent.

At the time England, under waistcoat, played the two holding midfielders. Phillips and Plodder. I couldn't split them and at the time we had an ancient player in Fernandinho, on his own, doing the job of those two in midfield, in a tougher situation. Phillips actually got England's player of the year which indicated he was the better of the two (I thought both were rubbish and have presumably been proved correct with Phillips). However, one signed for City so automatically became worse and one signed for Arsenal and morphed into the dogs bollocks.Pep tried to sign Rice..I'm pretty sure our manager is not interested In average, one paced players.
To be fair.....I like the cut of your argument Sir.;)At the time England, under waistcoat, played the two holding midfielders. Phillips and Plodder.

Fortunately we only spent £40m on Phillips and not £100m+ on a plodder.
