This.

I'm glad Bridge has decided not to make himself available for England, because basically he's garbage!

I assume he's going to duck out of the game on Saturday as well. If not, his timing is really strange.

Can someone set up a 50-50 between Bridge and Terry please

Exactly! Haha, TBF I don't think anyone will give s flying f-ck.

Baines in!

It's got absolutely f-ck all to do with him. There won't be a problem.

I'm glad Bridge has quit. There should be no problems within the team now. Had he gone, I think there would have been a 50/50 split in the camp. Team Terry - Team Bridge. Which would have just been typical of us.

Are you and Everton fan by any chance?

Baines is not better than Bridge at all. Don't be daft. Even Capello the other day said that Bridge and Cole are the best two English left-backs. I'd take his judgement ahead of yours

I will credit you for your humour.

Milner has played several games in midfield while Arshavin has been forced to play out of position because of Van Persie's injuries.

If we are going to go on stats, Anderson is the worst 'attacking' midfielder in the history of the Prem. How many Prem goals has he scored?



If managers made decisions using that logic, then Gary Neville would never have reached 10 caps.

Sgain, I point you in the direction of what Capello said. Bridge is/was rated by Mourinho, Sven and Capello. Sorry, who are you?

well shut the boards down, opinions outlawed by EE.

Rated as the best of a bad bunch after Cole?

But you won't take Alex Ferguson's judgement ahead of your own on right wingers? He doesn't seem to bad at that manager malarkey so I'm going to take his opinion of yours.

Fair enough.

Just when has Bridge made all these star performances though? His girlfriend had more interaction with the first team than he did there. Something like 80 games in 6 years there.

He signs for City, not playing well enough to warrant a call up IMO then retires from playing for England. He's hardly playing in a way that suggests England would miss him and IMO he wouldn't be under consideration by Capello had he not been playing for Chelsea. He certainly hasn't lived up to the promise he showed early on in his career.

Baines is playing brilliantly and is fully fit. His performances in the victories over Man City, Chelsea and Man United were fantastic. Their wide players got very little change from him and he was very involved going forward too. I don't see what more he has to do. If he carries his form on until the end of the season I don't see how he could fail to be in the squad. If the World Cup was next week he'd surely be playing. Cole will obviously be first choice if he gets back from his injuries and the devestation of losing Miss Tweedy.

If i was Bridge, i would have gone to the first England camp and snapped Terry in half.

Cos you iz rock hard ye?
