seriously lol.. think last game might have been his last shot. he was dribbled on his ass before the goal, created a should-have-been-penalty, and got hart injured. Then he was subbed off for a midfielder (who took defender position) after 53 minutes with no subs left.

And he's been a total liability for the past two years.

Hehe whilst that might be a popular opinion and view of many fans english as well. It won't happen just because those two players have international goals and experience. Just a bit too soon for young Rashford im afraid.

I also agree that rashford should start over rooney. Sturridge is great when he doesn't break. And if Carroll deserves a place then that disproves the idea of England no longer having a striker problem, he sucks.

Still, Kane and Vardy are both legit, and Welbeck and Sturridge might be safer, more proven and somewhat similar players. Rashford absolutely looks great - but he has only played 8 matches total. Keep up the current streak though, and it'll be hard to justify not including him. Rooney on the other hand has to avoid keeping up his current streak to justify his position.

I haven't seen numbers but I think it's premier league and by quite a margin. Now I will try to google.

Whilst South America might watch more La Liga, the rest of Asia is heavily invested in the premier league.

If Rashford keeps it up he'll be in Spain or Germany in a few years.

yeah seems like average PL match has almost 6 times more viewers than average La Liga match.

A lot of people watch barcelona vs real madrid, quite some people watch most barcelona matches and quite some people watch most real madrid matches, but very few people watch games not involving either.

This is the key. Asia has 2/3 of the world population (1/3 in the other continents all together). So if you have Asia you win always.

I thought he wasn't good enough for a champions league squad when he was playing for Bayern. Unreal how certain players stick around and other players that are better have a hard time getting a shot at being a center back for an champions league side.

You only have to win 2 countries really. India and China. Premier league should already have an advantage in India.

It'll cost way more money then anyone is willing to spend. An English home grown player is a godsend for those UCL quotas and for local PR. If CR7 took 90 a few years ago to get pulled away I can't imagine how much it'll take to pull away from united.

Hodgson will just start Rooney upfront because he's dumb like that. Kane, Welbeck and Rashford deserve it more

rooney was in great form before his injury actually. unless by current streak you mean his current injury, in which case yes, he should avoid it if he wants to play any football

I am predicting a quite "easy" win of England against Germany coming up. Like 2-0 or 3-1. And then in the Euros meeting again in Quarters/Semis and Germany winning it convincigly

Germany sucks at friendlies.

yep I also think that England is in better shape at the moment. German defense sucks without Boateng (as does Bayern's defense). Also Lahm leaves a huge gap.
