Wow. England under-20s squad has 0 Arsenal players. Where's our fabled yoot?
Putting their feet up somewhere, I think.
Jack and Alex could've played.
Last I heard we had 2 twenty year olds in the U-17 squad :gofigure:
I believe our U17 squad is rather fancied to bring through a few decent players
U20's is a bit of a nonsense, imo. If you're not in the U21 set up by that point you're probably not going to make it at a top club
Let's face it,this under-xx thing is a load of auld bollix
Either do it or don't do it.
It's not just us anyway. I understand there's a whole team of youngsters from around the Premier
League who could've gone but didn't, for one reason or another. You'd think England would have had half a chance if we'd been able to call on this little lot*:
1. Jack Butland (Stoke City)
2. Kyle Walker (Tottenham)
3. Luke Shaw (Southampton)
4. Jack Rodwell (Man City)
5. Phil Jones (Man Utd)
6. Steven Caulker (Tottenham)
7. Raheem Sterling (Liverpool)
8. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (Arsenal)
9. Danny Welbeck (Man Utd)
10. Jack Wilshere (Arsenal)
11. Wilfried Zaha (Man Utd)
*From the Beeb.
Forget the top clubs, what about playing for England?
A friend of mine who is a friend of a good friend of SAF
Told me it was Alex's last act as manager.
"You're not ****in going,you are injured or some ****e"
They're all German these days. Eisfeld, Gnabry and Zelalem
In fairness, I guess we'd have to see how it works for Premier League youngsters
who play for other countries too. I can't imagine any manager having different rules for different players.
