Mantis Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 What are Herd's chances of making the World Cup squad? Maybe if he got called up and by some miracle a Hodgson stopped being a stubborn word removed and called up a Villa player we could have a group of Villa with USA, Belgium, Australia and England.

Are you his bodyguard or something? not really just respect him for his achievements in the game, think its bit pathetic to keep calling for a guy to be fired becasue he wont pick players you want especially when he has never lost a game as manager for England Edited November 21, 2013 by Zatman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, his "achievements" in the game are irrelevant to his performance as England manager - which is what I'm judging him on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 How on earth are Holland in pot 4?! This is a team that reached the world cup final last time out and have blitzed qualification for euro 2012 and this world cup. Yes I know they flopped at euro 2012 but Swiss didn't even qualify. Was going to have a whinge about France being randomly in pot 3 aswell but that means they'll probably draw another strong euro teams like Croatia or Russia and will probably get a South American team as you can't have 3 European teams in a group I don't think so another first round exit looks on the cards.

Mantis Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 you know friendlies dont count, if that was case people would call for Lambert head after we lost to Luton We still lost in Euro 2012. It doesn't matter that it was on penalties it was still a defeat. I also think looking at it purely from that angle is a bit simplistic really. You say I'm always making "unnecessary digs" at Hodgson yet surely you read these posts properly as well? My main gripe (and I'm not the only one) isn't results it's about how we play and his bizarre selection policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other 3 pots are not done by rank. They are by geography. Italy are in that pot too, its the unseeded European pot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we didn't lose the game then how come we were knocked out of the tournament? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 because of a penalty shootout, nobody counts penalty shootouts as victory they are practically a lottery. no bookmaker does for example Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
