Indeed, but his England record is up there with the best. Well, the best currently available. No Arsenal bias here, as I think he is a 3rd choice there by miles, but given his record for England, he is way ahead of Rashford and Vardy.

Kanes clearly top class (and not one of their own ;) ), Vardy has recent form and does it against the top teams on a decent basis, the rest are a long long way back for me. Rashford may turn into a decent player, this prob Wellbecks last hurrah before he slides down the leagues. The real curates egg is Sterling. Im not his biggest fan but based on his City form England really do need to get more out of him if they intend to go deep in this tourney

get in Rebic :)

But not on recent form. Plenty of England managers in the past have been criticised for picking players based on reputation not on form but you seem to be advocating that by putting Welbeck above the other two.

I am no great Welbeck fan, far from it, but he is not getting a mention on here, whilst other players who also are a bit meh do. If Rashford was any good, he would be a guaranteed starter at Utd. He isnt.

Oh, and if they want 100m for Martial they are deluded.

Surely you can just replace Rashford with Welbeck and Utd with Arsenal in that statement? And even more so given that Utd are a better team than Arsenal.

For sure. You can. If you want. But my point remains, only one of them has a boat load of goals for England. And its not like Welbz is ancient, past it, banjaxed. He is an option. With a proven record. Albeit for scoring scuffed goals.

Sorry, on the beer, Modric is Croatian. Idiot.

Think I might have found the reason for you suggesting Welbeck should be in the team ahead of the others mentioned. :whoo:
