Tariq Lamptey is a very good RB talent. His chances with England are still not clear for now but he is quite balanced in both the attacking and defensive sides of the fullback role. He may get a chance Post-Euros when Walker and Trippier give way.
If not, then Ghana awaits.


As for Wan Bissaka, it's the same thing with our Anglo-Naija lads. They have a dream to wear the Three Lions shirt which shouldn't be scoffed at really but when it's clear that they won't be considered or taken seriously and they still wanna hang on to that "dream" then we leave them to it.
In truth, he and Masuaku could catapult DR Congo into the conversation of Best Fullback combos on the African continent in International football. But for now, seems like it's not to be until Bissaka "understands the handwriting on the wall".


Eizzy003:
I wonder what Wan Bissaka is still waiting for, that guy should have had more than 10 caps for Congo by nw, and I think Lamptey of Brighton should also follow suit, if the whole Arnold no fit mak England squad na Wan Bissaka and Lamptey wn mak am.
I wonder who da advise this guys sometimes

Mason Greenwood pulls out of England squad due to an underlying injury. So maybe Saka might replace him. There's still hope for Saka. We wait for the official announcement.

I disagree about Kane

But I can say these 2 teams might fight for the epl

I will have my final say after 15 games

1st favorite mancity
2nd favorite Chelsea
I beg to disagree, imagine Kane given any of these 2 teams 20 goals next season and some of these goals will be crucial and match winning goals, tell me how his goalscoring prowess won't help the team. Who were Chelsea and Man City EPL top scorers in the just concluded season and how many goals did they scored?

Meanwhile France's U-21s crashed out of the U-21 Euros yesterday at the Quarter final stage losing to Holland's U-21 side (two goals by Dutch-Ghanaian, Myron Boadu).

Now I rate the French pool of talents because they are really good but the hype overdrive from others here was just ridiculous.

I remember how this french U-21 side was hyped to the heavens in here by some even saying they are gonna slap our Super Eagles if they played us. Some outside here even said they are so good they could win the Senior Euros. Lol

Yet they couldn't defeat their mates at U-21 level.

Its possible that Saka can now make the team with Greenwood pulling out but I still see England going in attack with Sterling, Foden, Sancho, Rashford, Kane and DCL.

He is good going forward, but wat does he has to offer in defense, u can't expect the center backs to be covering for him always
If u want to win matches your CB must cover for him. The boy is special talent. Of course his defense surfers this year being that Liverpool had to use children in that position but one would think England have enough good CB's to be able to do the covering job.

Karlovych:
I think their national team prefer those with Caribbean backgrounds, till date only only Welbeck and Alli with 42 and 37 caps respectively have the highest caps for those of African origin. Majority of the Nigerians in their side had less than 10 caps
the only reason why they struggle to get game is none of them were good though for the English NT

This is so unfortunate, this talent may end up not playing for either of Nigeria or England. I actually wonder if they have good advisers.
As an adviser will you tell the boy that 'you know you aren't good enough for England why not go for Nigeria '? Not sure it will be nice for anybody to say such to a young and upcoming player

You think he doesn’t rate him ? But Arnold was taken to the World Cup then

I think he was dropped because of Reece James and the Chelsea guy did well this season

Walker and tripper are better to me ,walker will be playing as a CB in a 3 man defence with what I am seeing
Yeah but since then he's barely used the guy. Think it has more to do with player profile like you said.

Seems he digs Reece James (Champions league winner) and Kieran Trippier (Champions of Spain, more versatile) more than TAA....
Yep. Then again, when you look at England's midfield, It does look like they could do without the creativity he'd offer from RB.

That is very true, even Reece James could offer similar creativity from the right back.

I don't think TAA would be missed.

Just a little illumination on level 3 Quadriceps strain, Grade 3 strains occur when there is a complete tearing of the muscle (quadriceps) with associated severe pain and complete loss of strength.
On examination, palpable defect in the muscle tissue can frequently be felt, especially if examined at the onset of injury prior to hematoma (blood collection within a space) formation.
It takes about 8 to 10 weeks to heal.

We wish him a speedy recovery.
