Marcus Edwards. Here's an article with quotes from Poch. Big mistake imo now he has to come through with that kind of expectation.

Can't be true as we all know (as we've been told so often) that we are a one man team.

People should start to realise playing for England isn't a barometer for how good a player is.

It's quite possibly the opposite.

You just want one of the bland pundits to shout "cos the national team is gash" when the not playing for England card gets used.

Only England thinks England is even a second tier international team. 1 trophy, 50 years ago. Years upon years of early exits from tournaments. Spineless managers with teams picked by the London media.
I'd rather Everton players not play for them. I just think, unfortunately, that it does matter to Ross.
Theres actually a headline on the bbc about alli being better than gerrard, lampard and beckham combined, he's not even better than ross, who has a far rarer skill set and doesn't have the wonderful erikksen doing all the difficult stuff for him so he can toe poke one in and grab the headlines. Ross is by far and away the best english midfielder in the league, we need to show him that respect with our contract offer

Different players really. Alli is a great talent but he doesn't have the potential to run a game. He might decide a game for sure. I won't play down how excellent he has been.
But Ross is the best pure talent England have produced in a long time. He has everything and can achieve anything. And he's slowly realising that potential.
Lads. Come on. You know you said it.
Rag them lad. Dead hard.
Alli's passing and vision are hugely underrated because of his goals tbh.

I include myself in this as I've been a big critic of his, but if he leaves it's the fans' fault. Too much pressure and expectation, and too much criticism when things aren't going well. He's young, he's seen football through very different eyes to most of us. All that will matter to him is champions league and playing for England, and it seems we can't offer him either, along with a huge weight on his shoulders.
He seems a confidence player, and objectively I think for him it would be best to leave and start with a clean slate.

I do agree and rate alli as a very good player, but players like Ross are much rarer, almost unheard of as english talents (possibly beardsley or hoddle being close to being that sort of player), and the rarity of having such a player, as you say one who can run games, him being scouse and an evertonian, I honestly can't remember enjoying watching someone play for us so much when he is on song

Who's more important to your side...Alli or Eriksen?
