Future England Players

[Tarbie]

In light of recent comments made by John Salako regarding Wayne Routledge being good enough to play for England, does anybody reckon any of our current crop of young English players will be good enough to go on to play for England?

Obviously in recent years we have had very few players come through the ranks to play at the highest level, Peter Crouch being the only one that really springs to mind.

Do we reckon the likes of Wayne Routledge, Jay Simpson, Ben Watson, Matthew Connolly or even Hogan Ephraim or Tom Heaton will be good enough to wear the 3 lions one day?

Well,Routledge has played for England at pretty much every level up to 21's....so not beyond the realms of possibility.

There's not a glut of good English keepers, so who knows about Heaton in a couple of years' time?

How will Heaton get his chance when a superfit and pro in Cerny just keeps doing no wrong? He has another season for me, he has been probably the best free signing ever.

A 4-0 win at home to Preston and people think we have future England players

Only Watson and possibly Routledge could cut it in the Prem let alone playing for England

Agreed. That's why I said 'in a couple of year's time'

Rangers W12......read the post again. Does it say anywhere on there that I think we have future England players? I was simply asking the question following John Salako's recent comments about Routledge being good enough for England.

Sheesh.....sometimes I think some people just come on here to pick a fight!
