That the squad is the strongest in a generation is debatable.
Which players would you have started with today? Most of the 11 were obvious starters.

Well this thread should serve as a nominations thread in that case. I nominate Ashley Cole!
Then bragged about it in his autobiograpy. He walked off before the red 'like a man' but he was smirking. The absolute animal.
One minute I'm disagreeing with [MENTION=31796]alfredmizen[/MENTION], the next minute I'm agreeing with him. I'm so confused!!!

refresh my memory, wot did jt do to get banned from the final?
you live in a self-fabricated dream world
It's totally understandable why Gareth went with the 3 he did. Barkley is playing well for Chelsea, Delph offers more defensively than Lingard, and Walker is a starter for the best team in the league.
Beckham, cos he thinks it cost him his knighthood.

I wouldn't read too much into what Rooney thinks, he isn't the sharpest tool in the box
Very few of his generation were likeable characters but I doubt many of them are jealous
Jealous of what anyway, we haven't done sweet fa
Only winning counts in football and only France can come up smelling of roses recently

Sorry but Alli over Barkley any day of the week, understand regards Walker. I like Delph but would want Lingard. My view is that Alli and Lingard offer a much more cohesive unit. The other issue I have is that we threaten when we go forward, these two bring the flair. The period before they came on we appeared devoid of any ideas.
The one point to take from this is that we have a great depth in the squad. My one concern (actually two) is the role that Henderson and Dier fill. I’m not convinced with either of them tbh.
JT was a class act from day one. Abusing relatives of the 9/11 dead an early example.

The current squad seem to love him. And despite no GCSEs he seems like a shrewd lad, and humble with it.
Some of that golden generation, Terry especially wanted to make it all about him.
If they had the attitude of the current lot they may have won something.

Listening to Gary Neville on the Quickly Kevin pod last week, I would say every England player since Euro 96. It just sounded like a really misrrable exprerience. Too much pressure and expectation, club rivalries, shite managers and set up generally.
Southgate seems to have the environment right and these boys have totally embraced the experience, you can see they’re loving it.

Beckham has never struck me as a jealous type.
Not just Southgate. By all accounts the FA finally got its act together. Loads of praise, even before the WC matches, of the base in Russia - location, media access, players treated like grown ups, fun activities.
