We sure it'd.nit the U21's?

No, they've promoted him to the seniors

posted on 19/3/24

He'll probably get a late sub appearance to lock him into playing for England, as he is also eligible to play for Ghana

No where near ready enough for international football. Another daft decision from Southgate.

I don't think you can get tied down by playing friendlies

He'll probably get less game time for the seniors than the U21s so perhaps this not a bad thing from a United perspective.

He is a talent and a prospect but at present, IMO, he really shouldn't be our go to guy in midfield at this stage of his career. We could really do with a good, solid, athletic pro in there for that role.

You cant. You can still leave even after playing a few games.

Well deserved. He'll have a good view of Henderson from the bench.

Embarrassing how easy it is to get a call up these days. If he was Brazilian he would be washing cars on the street somewhere. Very average player

I think experience counts for a lot in international football, but I also feel stylistically he's the best suited to playing alongside Rice, and Gallagher is the only real alternative.

laughable.

If Southgate wants to look at a young ball playing central midfielder over these friendlies then I don't really understand why he's not giving Angel Gomes a go. He's been a mainstay for his teams in senior football in both Portugal and France as well as for the younger England teams.

Drafting Mainoo in seems a little premature to me, though international football may suit Mainoo's game more at present/this stage of his development than the PL.

Antony, Andreas Pereira and Richarlison have Brazil caps.

Brilliant talent but way too early.

Really? How do you explain Richarlison.

posted on 19/3/24

That’s surprising given it doesn’t look like anyone’s dropped out.

There’s a good player there. Last time I checked he was also scoring for spurs now.

If you are good enough, you are old enough.

Bellingham has 27 caps by the age of 20.

Well done to the lad.. He must be buzzing. What a season he's having.

Congratulations, Mainoo. Congratulations to the Utd academy too for nurturing this outstanding young talent, hopefully even more to follow.

He tore apart the bestest, kloppiest team ever in the entire and whole universe just a couple of days ago, so it was inevitable.

Tore apart . Apart from one lucky dribble he did nothing else and got dragged off when you were losing.
