Surely Trent is a better midfield option than Jordan Henderson or Kalvin Phillips!

He’s absolutely incredible.

Darius Vassell and Phil Neville our first options off the bench in that Euros…

International football > club football.

As much as FIFA and co. have tried, international football still hasn’t been ruined by money. It’s still basically the same as it was 50 years ago.

Club football has been so distorted by money. Literally oil clubs buying up all the best players; super teams where even their reserve players are world class.

International football still has an authenticity to it. The squad make up at the top level is a lot more interesting. World class players have to line up along side shitters. Teams have incredible strengths, and glaring holes. And you can’t just buy a player for £100m to plug that hole. It’s not as easy as that. Genuinely find it better.

And stuff like a superstar like Gareth Bale leading a tiny country like Wales to relative glory is incredible. It would be like if he stayed at Southampton for his whole career and had them challenging for trophies. All the best players in Europe being funnelled into the same 10 clubs is so dull in comparison.

Only 6 clubs in England ever having a chance of winning the league is not fine.

Just because it’s better than it is in Germany or Spain does not make it good.

American sports have us beat here, no two ways about it.
