California Ram. Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 thanks to Curtis Davies tweet Welcome @camjerome33 the gaffer is trying to get our England U21 squad back together it seems ??? #DCFC #DCFCFans we now have 6 of that squad - Carson, Davies, Huddlestone, Nugent, Bent, Jerome watch out for sightings of Leighton Baines, James Milner, Aaron Lennon and Stewart Downing in the Yard Don’t think Carson’s goalkeeping company from that squad Lee Camp’s on his way back soon though...

Waffle Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I can’t help but think that GR is succession planning. He’s bought in players that lead by example and are respected professionals who’ve had long life spans in football. I think that for whatever youth we may have in the team, they’ll learn a lot from out old heads. Would love a couple signings along the Nick Powell ilk to now come and grow for next season.

SaintRam Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Got mentioned to GR in the latest interview: "What year was it? 1994?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Harford Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Most I can find on pitch at same time was this 1-0 win away to the Netherlands in 2006. England: Scott Carson, J.Hoyte, Leighton Baines (L.Rosenior), C.Davies, M.Kilgallon, Tom Huddlestone, W.Routledge (J.Welsh), James Milner (P.Whittingham), David Nugent (N.Onuoha 85), Ashley Young, Theo Walcott (C.Jerome) Whilst looking through also seeing Camp,Grant and Bywater as keepers in and around the same time period.

kash_a_ram_a_ding_dong Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 I can't help thinking that(if we do get promoted)hopefully most of our current and somewhat elderly squad aren't on long contracts....we certainly won't be mobile enough for the premiership with our current line up without a big injection of youth.
