Anybody think Ross will start against Holland?

If he does I might put a fiver on him to score... Be nice to see how England work with him running the centre, especially so if the likes of Vardy etc play.
 
Barkley, Alli, Vardy, Kane
Best attack force England's had for 10 years.
Would love to see the four of them get a whole 90 against a good team.
 

Another area he has developed over the last couple of seasons is his ability to impact a match as a substitute.

Used to be that unless he started the game or came on at half time he struggled to adapt to the pace and tactics of a match, whereas he seems to get up to speed much faster now.
 
Thought Ross looked excellent when he came on. Showed for the ball all the time and used it very intelligently when given the chance.

Not wanting to get into a discussion about Martinez in this thread but is it unfair to say Ross looks a better player for England than he does on occasions for us?

So pleased he plays for us.
 

Against Germany he made himself available gave it short when there was no space available and drove forward into areas when space was available but hey he aint no Lallana or Henderson

I think all that is missing for us mate ( in Barkleys game) is the defensive side of things and I'm 100% confident that he has strict instructions not to track back, tackle etc. Our whole front line never do it and it's plainly obvious that they are told not to. Like you said, it'd not about trying to Martinez bash it's just as clear as day isn't it that Ross is given no responsibility whatsoever and is just told to try and impact the game offensively.

Funny Sunday people I'm reading marked him 5/10 England's worst player. Absolute joke. Even hodgson admitted after the game, the introduction of Barkley, nullified the influence of Kroos on the game. As you rightly pointed out, used the ball really intelligently.
