JH had a steady game at RB.
JB started off a tad nervous but grew into the game, making some decent saves.

Both very solid. Not spectacular but very comfortable at that level.

Dortmund’s Gittens was able to destroy their entire defence, at will. Then shoot into row Z.

Some great passages of one-touch football there. Bodes well.
Who does he ply his trade with?
I saw England made 8 subs - Hinsh and Beadle were two of the three NOT subbed

Absolutely this. Well up to the standard.

They've gone under the radar, but Villa's academy has been producing some fantastic young players in recent years. Up there with the best of them.

Villa...started at West Brom and made his professional debut against us in the FA Cup. Villa bought him from Manchester City.

In this case though Rogers didn’t come through their system, he came up through the ranks at West Brom and Man City.
Villa signed him last season from Middlesbrough. Contrary to what the Palace goons think, he along with Joao Pedro was the best signing from the Championship. In fact with Alex Scott going from Bristol City to Bournemouth, Wharton wasn’t even in the top 3.
Rogers is the real deal though, great talent.
Bought from Boro.

I'm sure we've been saying this as a nation for years now about the u21s!

I know Rogers didn't move directly from WBA to Aston Villa, but over recent years Villa have ransacked the Baggies' academy of most of their top talent (staff as well as players).
We have which is probably why we have reached 2 finals recent years

So have the senior team, but that does not stop people complaining about them!

I very often agree with your analysis of football, but think you're wildly off track on Wharton. He's some player which is why he got called up for the Euros, and is better than Scott. Rogers has seized the mantle and looks a great player, and we all know about JP.
I might not have been entirely serious about Wharton.
