I'm not watching England because I have some self respect. However, just seen that Justin has started and come off injured for them.
Justin should never have been allowed to join the England squad. He spent almost a year recovering from a bad ACL and then he has struggled to regain his form since returning.
In my opinion, he hasn't played well apart for 20 mins here and there since his return. He has been playing well within himself and looks in desperate need of a few weeks on a beach before preseason. Typically, BR overplayed him on his return which didn't help him.
Southgate is a complete idiot if he thinks Justin has been in sufficient fitness and form to play on for several weeks after the end of the season.
And yet, many, many pundits are arguing that he was England's only bright spark in the first 45 minutes.
I can see why he was chosen, he's been very good since his return despite the odd defensive brain fart here and there.
I couldn't give a flying **** about international football but I'm sure he could and I'm happy for him to be in that squad and feeling that he is achieving something.
