I still find it bizarre we didnt take Barry or Carrick. Also wonder who will take up that role in future.

Agreed on both points. Not got a clue really for a future player in that ilk. Nathaniel Chalobah, maybe? Jack Rodwell? :D George Thorne (WBA youngster)? No obvious choices to take over by Russia...

Do you mean in an England shirt or this season? Because Henderson's done far more this season than Wilshere has in every season he's had put together :D

Wilshere's break out season was far more impressive than anything Henderson has done tbh.

I hope you're kidding!

Don't get any of the fuss made over Wilshere. Seriously. Just an aggressive footballer with little man syndrome. Capable of a great performance now and again but generally speaking nowhere near as good as he's made out to be.

Wilshere's never better than Henderson :D

I may be a bit biased as an Arsenal fan and admit Wilshere hasn't had a great season, but for England he looks better than Henderson. Better technique and range of passes as well as more tempo dictating as opposed to just running around alot.

Oh **** off....ITV have rights for next 2018 & 2022 World Cup Finals.

It'll probably be BBC and ITV for the rest of time. Hope Sky never get their paws on it anyway. And this is coming from someone who pays for Sky (begrudgingly!). Same for BT.

Henderson had a better season but there's no doubt Wilshere is a better player when not injured.

This. Henderson is in form, but Wilshere is and will be the better player of the two.

Sturridge annoys the **** out of me. Love Welbeck though, he's really underrated.

So, 0-0 v Honduras. Not the best prep is it. We're gonna really struggle v Italy and Uruguay at this rate, regardless of what Townsend says.

He may be right in what he's saying but what he's forgetting is that England aren't that good/are probably worse.

We were much better (effective) with Rooney and Gerrard on the pitch. Barkley might be an exciting prospect, but he has no idea what he's doing half the time. People saying be otherwise are just wrong.

We really weren't. Rooney has done nothing to deserve to start.

Ridiculous heat and humidity, 1 week before the world cup, big disruption halfway through the match, we ould well end up pony next week and the week after...but there's a few reasons there why we might only be a shadow of what we might end up like possibly.
