Delph ?

Anyone want to come with a logical explanation for his selection.

[Juanco20]

Welbeck over Kane. What is that all about?

[mickk]

Roy doing what Roy does, I can't understand why he's not starting with Kane instead of Wellbeck.

[London424]

It would appear that 29 goals doesn't even get you a start against Lithuania...pathetic Roy, pathetic.

[soad]

Lithuanians will get absolutely hammered, surely? This isn't ice hockey (or basketball).

If innovative team selection is what you're after, don't bother with England while Roy's in charge!
Not sure Delph is international class. I am sure that Henderson & Jones aren't!

Problem is he is playing a 4-3-3 so means Kane would need to play out wide as Rooney plays up top. In the formation Welbeck is better. Kane should get 30mins I reckon.

Henderson is doing so much to drive this perfromance - that's his game, typically. Not sure you really understand the game to be honest...

That wasn't predictable was it? Confidence in a player is everything...

Sure is!

[Juanco20]

Let's just hope it isn't a flash in the pan like Townsend was

[hornetrider]

Andy Townsend awards MOTM to Wellbeck!

No wonder ITV have sacked him.

I don't even think he's that good.

I know - I give him too much credit. I'm just a generous soul.

[anonymous-user]

I agree about Townsend - surprises me how much an ex-pro can show so little insight - but look at the game's decisive moments - and look at where Wellbeck was in amongst some of them...

Remind me who we were playing again? Henderson has a decent "engine" and scores the occasional goal, but not much more.

Point proven, you really haven't got a clue, have you? Thick as pig st.
