Best English Wingers/Wide MF's (In Order)

Milner isn't the worst, he has a tiny bit of everything in his game and not being a regular for CIty doesn't make him any less of a player. He works hard but that's not what his game only is, that's a description for people like Cleverley and Fletcher.

Townsend is a threat he may be 1 dimensional in the sense that he loves coming inside and shooting but he still does that effectively. Sterling is average though and any defender with at least half his pace will snuff him out as the wind is enough to tumble him over

Lallana has been the best attacking midfielder in the league this season, English or foreign. Mightily impressed with the guy. So intelligent, dynamic and versatile.

Hopefully Gibbs plays next week ahead of Monreal to silence him. Monreal can make any rubbish winger look good at times.

He's lucky Puncheon had an absolute mare yday to be honest

He doesn't do it effectively, though. He's scored twice for Spurs this season.

Quite a strong statement, don't think he's the best, but a great player, definitely needs to be on that plane to Brazil.

As for Sterling, he's still quite raw, but has a lot of potential. I'd take him over Townsend.

People blatantly only watch Sterling on MOTD to get such ratings providing a fully fit Gibbs is available my point will be proved next saturday I hope

Raw or not you can still tell the talent of a player, and I'd say Ox and Zaha definitely have more about them than Raheem does, Raheem at best will be like Lennon. Beat his man cut the ball back across the box, I don't see nothing spectacular in his game though. Then again hard work on the training ground could make the sky the limit for him as well as anyone, Ronaldo and Bale have shown that

Of course the top English scorer of last season wouldn't top a Spurs fans list .

I've actually been fair with Townsend and Lennon couldn't expect that from you though, for goodness sake Jarvis??

Routledge is ahead of Zaha on current form.

The original post is a classic case of somebody having no idea what they are talking about.

I just threw Jarvis in there cause I couldn't think of any more, and by the time you get to 11th in line, it doesn't matter on the order.

Walcott not top because he seriously underperforms for England. If he took his Arsenal form into his national team he'd be top without a doubt. He's also injured right now, which is going against him in regards to current form.

You clearly don't like Sterling as a player. Fair enough, people have different opinions. It's a bit much however that when various neutral fans (Arsenal and Utd included) say that you have Sterling too low your response it they must just watch MOTD?!

So because they have a different opinion to you then they must be wrong - the highlight watchers! Rediculous.

Maybe they're seeing something you're not, thought of that? Sterling is a long way from the finished product and for the first few months of this season he really didn't perform, however the last (circa)10 weeks he's been great. His finishing hasn't, that's still woeful, but link up play has been top class.

If fit Walcott would be the first winger on the team sheet for England but he's not. I don't see a totally compelling case for any of the others and I think Sterling has as good a chance as any of making the plane to Rio. If nothing else it would be pace off the bench, something that can change a game.

Sterling's awful.

If we witness the clueless Woy from his Liverpool days, then yes this is possible. On a good day for him he might not give Raheem a look in. Won't bring anything to the table at the WC would be a big gamble, if you're going to take risks you should do it on players who have that raw spark in their game like Townsend or Zaha, Sterling would be pointless.
