“The stats back me up,” Lee Clark once said. “They tell you I shouldn’t have been dropped. From the beginning of January, we won five, drew one, lost one, scored 12 and conceded five. In the 11 games that followed without me: we won five, drew two, lost four, scored 14 and conceded 12. We’d only lost four in the previous 27 Premier League games so ...
There was no clamour for a teenage Mark Noble to make Sven Goran Eriksson’s 2006 World Cup squad, although he did have five Premier League appearances to Theo Walcott’s none, as well as 21 caps for an assortment of England youth teams. The Euro 2008 ship sailed with Steve McClaren at the haphazard helm. The Capello Index failed to correctly identif...
Allardyce, of course, spent much of his time in charge of England trying to figure out if he could call up future France World Cup winner Steven Nzonzi. “We did explore it, but it was impossible, and it’s dead now,” he was soon forced to concede. It was the sort of question so often asked of Carlo Cudicini, who was publicly advised to “choose Engla...
‘One player who I expected to be in the squad is Bolton’s Kevin Nolan,’ wrote Alan Hansen in February 2006, suggesting the Bolton talisman ‘could muscle his way in’ ahead of that summer’s World Cup. The 23-year-old had no such luck and would, in truth, never get particularly close at any point. Six years later a more seasoned veteran would open up ...
One of the last players to win a trophy with Tottenham remains one of the best never to be capped by their country. Malbranque ostensibly had three chances to gain international honours but, rather typically, faltered when the time came to convert them. If only Tony Blair had been in charge. Malbranque captained France to the final of the U21 Europ...
While England scramble around for three competent centre-halves, France float serenely in a ludicrously deep pool of talent. Dayot Upamecano finally became a full international earlier this year but Abdou Diallo, Ibrahima Konate, Dan-Axel Zagadou, Willy Boly, Benoit Badiashile and Wesley Fofana are among those waiting for that honour to be bestowed...
It is unknown whether Paul Alcock secretly sat on the board of the Italian Football Federation during the late 20th century and early part of the 2000s. That would go some way to explaining how Paolo Di Canio never got his shot with the Azzurri. There are a couple more obvious explanations. The striker notably struggled in Serie A in the nascent st...
One thing is for certain: Sylvain Distin would not have been short of character references had he decided to relentlessly pursue an international career. The Frenchman played for a wide variety of managers in the Premier League, from Sir Bobby Robson to Kevin Keegan, Stuart Pearce, Harry Redknapp, Tony Adams, Paul Hart, David Moyes and Eddie Howe. ...
“We were probably a centre-forward away from being contenders for the Premier League,” claimed David Moyes in September 2018, before reeling off a list of Everton players that included Distin but started with Mikel Arteta. More than six years on Merseyside earned the Spaniard a move to Arsenal in August 2011 but his home country never took much not...
There will forever be a strand of football supporter that rages at a player for their club not being given international recognition while those at more illustrious teams are automatically selected. Steve Bruce exists as a perennial counterpoint to the suggestion that one game for Manchester United is enough for at least five or so England caps. Ga...
