Today’s Football 2021/22 Season

I’d say England do have some really strong depth- more than most international sides out there. I agree with Kane being the obvious standout.

But attacking wise Foden/Grealish/sancho/Rashford/Bellingham/sterling/mount / Smith Rowe / greenwood/ DCL…

hope he won't be appearing any time soon

Mate - I have never said they are all ‘world class’…name me any international side with more than one truly ‘world class player’ in there atm.

A front four of
Kane
Grealish mount foden

With Sterling/Rashford/sancho/greenwood backing that up …no other international side has that attacking depth…

Back that up with players like Pickford. Stones/Walker/Bellingham/rice. That team should be winning championships imo.

Agree to disagree.

give it a rest lad,pickford Walker stones mount Foden and grealish world class. The games gone cheap.

Pearls of wisdom. So lucky you post here. We are all enlightened. Cheers mate

Same - sounds like he’s back in United squad pretty soon by all accounts though.

I didn’t you said define world class, they are my definition of it, top top players.

There is no specific definition.

So solid English pros that won trophies. We have lots of them like Sterling etc. World class isn’t a term for me anyway but to think we have Kane and that’s it is just mad.

It’s not mad, he is the only world class player we have at the minute.

To me world class is a player that gets in any side in the world. He’s not as good as Lewandowski, he’s not as good as Benzema, so he can’t be world class.

So 442 there is only 2 world class strikers in the world, 4 world class midfielders and 4 defenders.

For the past 10 years Ronaldo and Messi have been the best two attackers in world football, no one takes their place. Are you saying Benzema, Lewandowski have only just become word class now they have slipped.

No, because I don’t use the term world class myself. Kane gets in as many top teams as Foden does.

Sound mate.

My definition of world class is being consistently decisive in international tournaments or the upper echelons of the champions league. So Kane and maybe Sterling for England. Then you've got Foden, Mount and possibly Saka who are close but not there.

Edit: in defence you've got Walker, TAA as much as I hate to admit it. Reece James not far off

 

[GP_Monty]

Rooney has got them playing some decent stuff.

Unreal job he's done. Not sure many had him pegged as a manager.

 

[GoldenToffee]

What a massive goal that was in injury time for Reading last night, what with Derby winning over Fulham. Derby will be heartbroken, as that's them as good as gone now even with that away win against by far the best team in the division.

13 yellow cards in the Luton Forest game lol - but they'll both be in the playoffs and hopefully Forest come up.

 

[GoldenToffee]

Kane, 29 in the summer and you'd have to imagine isn't going to win any huge silverware with Spurs before he turns 30/31. Kind of a wasted career really due to his loyalty as a player of his quality should be winning trophies regularly. Does he twist now and go for a move? He'd have plenty of takers. to
