England- Exciting Future or Lacking in Quality

Blog Article

We are currently in the middle of the international period in the season, where England are playing two fixtures. While the 8-0 thrashing of San Marino was expected, the upcoming game against group leaders Montenegro will surely be a tougher test and a closer insight as to how England could fare in Brazil next year.Ever since Roy Hodgson became England manager, the national call has been for the England squad to include more young players, as the supposed old guard of Terry, Lampard, Gerrard and Noah Hanifin Jersey co enter the twilight of their careers. This plan of action saw promising signs with the inclusion of Jack Butland, Alex-Oxlade Chamberlain and Danny Welbeck in the Euro 2012 squad. However, the side still only managed to reach the quarter finals, crashing out to Italy on penalties.And so on to this campaign, with the latest England squad showing more signs of youthful exuberance. Tom Cleverley, Ryan Bertrand and Daniel Sturridge, after impre sive performances for Team GB at the Olympics, have continued the progre sion from the U21s to the first team, leaving the national side with an average age of 26, compared to 28 at the 2010 World Cup.All this focus on youth and bringing through young players is all well and good, but questions remain over the quality of the youngsters coming through the ranks in the national side. While playing well for your club side week-in-week-out is worthy of meriting a place in the England squad, international football is a completely different kettle of fish. Take Aaron Lennon for example. The right winger is a constant thorn in the side of Premier League defences up and down the country, with his speed and trickery an absolute nightmare for opponents. However, the nippy winger has failed to hit this Klas Dahlbeck Men Jersey form at International level, and is still to open his goalscoring account for the national side. Although there is more competition for places with England than at Tottenham, with Theo Walcott, Raheem Sterling and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain all pushing Lennon for the starting right wing spot, questions must be raised as to why the winger is so obviously not as effective for country as for club. Having a squad full of International experience is e sential to any side, and putting in too many youngsters at once could see the team lose focus and shape, especially in tough away fixtures such as the upcoming games against Poland and Ukraine.The main debate though, is whether or not the current England youngsters have the quality to be a force at International level? Tom Cleverley has come under severe criticism from the media in recent matches, whereas Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has showed quality in Jordan Staal Women Jersey patches, but much like his pace merchant team mate Theo Walcott, fails to produce on a consistent basis.Overall, I think the signs are positive for the future. The latest few England squads have saw more youth brought into the squad, with Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere and Tottenham defender Steven Caulker both showing signs of promise on the international stage. Throwing in the re-inclusion of Michael Carrick following his international exile, we have a strong batch of experience in every position on the pitch, which should allow the youngsters to come through and learn, while of course bringing their own styles to the international stage. Personally, I still think the World Cup in 2014 is a tad too soon for England to show their true potential, but the longer term future looks a very exciting prospect indeed.
