Watching Chelsea v Watford it looks like Chelsea could do with him.
He's too good for England.

He has really matured as a player in the past couple of years and if he keeps that level of development up, no reason at all why he couldn't graduate into the full England squad in due course. England don't have a bottomless pit of quality central defenders as they have had in the past and with a number of friendlies coming up before next summer, he is doing a good job of getting noticed.
Betting now suspended ffs. Was just about to lump on.

I'm not so convinced playing for England is that bigger jump. He's as good as Stones, if not better
Dunk should definitely get a chance, he is an outstanding defender.
Surprised by how many people are talking Stones down though. He is quality.

Stones will be the first CB named in the team and is apparently playing very well for City. He is better all round than Dunk.at the moment.
Bu88er! - not even listed on William Hill!

They suspend it when games are being played. You sometimessage have to remind them to put it back as it's a quiet market.

Stones? He was horrific at Everton and at fault for most of their goals.
Dunk linked with call up in the daily mirror today.
Dunk is better in the air and better at defensive positioning. Dunk is also stronger and 2” taller.
What part of Stones game is superior to Dunk’s?
Why the **? I can't tell if you're agreeing or disagreeing with the notion that Stones is better.

Today's Sunday Mirror says Dunk will be in the squad for next months friendlies

The thing is, how would the Sunday Mirror know?
Seems to me they've picked a name out of a hat which nobody will remember if it doesn't end up being true, but if it is they can claim they have inside knowledge.
He undoubtedly is and much as it would be great to have a Brighton player in the England team I don't think people should be advocating it to happen because once it does he will be gone.
When I first started watching him fairly regularly I thought decent player but a total liability. Not a liability any more. When Fulham offered £5m I remember saying to someone that I would have taken the money and they said he was worth more. I didn't see it then but I do now. He is a minimum £25m player now. He has massively improved under CH but that may have come anyway with age and maturity.
Many offers have been turned down and every time I see a new improved contract reported in the Press I think ''****ing hell there must have been another offer'' - The lad is absolutely superb and I have no doubt he will be gone in one of the coming transfer windows but when it does happen he will bring in mega funds to adequately replace him; however I wouldn't want to hasten that by an England ''call up''.
Brighton need 2 seasons in the PL to stabilise the club financially and I would like to see Dunky here at least that long to help do that because he is very important to that ''Cause''.
So YES I would love to see him play for England but just not yet.
