It's like Southgate watches our games from 6 months ago... Konsa? Ings?

Southgate quoted as saying Ramsdale is showing he can do it after a move to a 'bigger club'. Wanker.

Good on Watkins.

I'm pleased for Ollie that he's back in the England squad.

Ollie's relentless hard work is always going to keep him in favour with Southgate - it's like the exact opposite of what happened with Jack before his call up - and as long as he's scoring a few along the way I think he'll be there or thereabouts with the England squad unless there's another English forward getting 20+ goals.

Hmmm, if he does well though watch out for the growing media calls for him to join Spurs, especially if Kane does eventually get away to Oil City!

Is that really all that egregious? He was picking him regularly when he was at Sheffield Utd.

He's not saying that he's picking him because he's now at Arsenal, he's saying that he's playing well at Arsenal.  Which he is.

I think he's been lucky with this call up but there again so has Kane.  One thing it does show it is not so much about the Villa that Southgate has a downer on.  Rather his style of play or what we call safeball

WBA bigger than Sheffield Utd and Bournemouth though -the 2 Clubs Ramsdale been at in the Prem
And Johnstone a Premier league keeper . He's been one of the better keepers who consistently improved and not fallen away like say Jack Butland or John Ruddy

Thats my view

Premier league history WBA been bigger over Prem era 13 seasons in with Sheff Utd and Bournemouth only having 5

Overall history WBA 82 seasons in top flight  1 league title 6 cups.
Sheffield U 62 seasons. 1 league title 4 cups
Close in that respect of trophies won

Then there is Sancho…..

Tbh there are not many goals at all in the front 6 in the league this season. 3 I think in the league between them.
