England should of sent Wilshire, Chamberlain, Rodwell and Jones to the U21 Euros.

With them playing we by far have a better chance of winning, these players need to develop winning mentalities at national level.

What is the point in them just playing pointless friendlies for the first team, some just maepke the bench?

Look at Hollands team today, some of them players could make the first team but its clear the Dutch FA or Van Gaal wants them playing and winning, developing that winning mentality.
 
Watched a lot of Guidetti at Feyenoord and was hoping tonight would be another opportunity to watch Clasie. Quality player. van Ginkel linked with Chelsea recently, I think.

Maher is really, really talented too.

I think playing in this would probably have benefited him more
 
Netherlands-Germany was quite a good game, shame they won it at the end. But the Netherlands do have some talent at that age group.
 
without Draxler, Schürrle, Gündogan, Götze, Jung..surely that is a german B-team of that generation.
