I haven't moaned about Cook just Livermore, may as well get Scholes out of retirement than have him.

I’m talking to the op
I'm happy to see Hart in the World Cup squad if he is good to have around off the pitch, we need three keepers after all. I definitely don't want to see him starting though.
Worst inclusion is Tarkowski.
Says he won’t pick Smalling because he’s not comfortable in bringing the ball out of defence and passing it - fine...
... Burnley have played the fewest passes in the league this season (10,583) and have played the most long balls this season (2,362). Do people expect me to believe he’s bringing the ball out of defence like Beckenbauer in his prime whilst the rest of his teammates just hoof it?
I don’t rate Smalling, but at least show some consistency in your reasoning.
What a mess of an article
Whinges for picking young who lets be fair has probably been the best English left back this season then bangs on about sessengon who yes has been good.........in the championship

He has helped a relegation threatened side a top 8 side. Him and Pope were called up correctly IMO. That said, I understand your point about the reasoning behind it.

It makes no sense even taking into account the limited options he has available to him. He wants to play a certain way, he’s been vocal about that, but Burnley don’t play in that style at all, so how can he possibly have shown he’s got the credentials he’s looking for - a ball-playing defender?
We’re no closer to winning a WC or EC so let’s just enjoy being at a major tournament

What’s the alternative to Livermore though? Especially as you’ve already moaned about Cook who is a decent up and coming player?

Harry Winks? Mark Nobel?

Winks has dropped into the U21s and again the op has already moaned about Cook being given a chance so he’d obviously do the same with winks.
Nobel is about the same level as Livermore

I'm a big Winks fan but he's been trash when he's played this year and isn't getting the minutes to justify a selection.
Noble? Are you joking?
