During the first half last night Hudson-Odoi cut inside about 15 yards outside the penalty area, looked up and saw Sterling running on the other wing. He then played an inch perfect 35 yard ball to Sterlings feet, who killed it stone dead with his first touch before taking his man on. It was so perfect, I rewound it twice watch it again.
To think I had hope watching England teams with Geoff Thomas, Carlton Palmer and Keith Curle. It's like an alternate universe when you take into account how far the Albion have come as well. Credit to the FA. So many young players coming through.
And credit to Southgate for giving some of the good young players a chance. What is wrong with Sarri that he can't see why to start Hudson-Adoi? Shit manager. I hope he stays at Chelsea.
And like many, I have concluded that Southgate is a perfect fit for the national team. Maybe not the best club manager but ideal here. It is surely no coincidence that he quickly dropped all the twats, continues to pick up-and-coming talent with good attitude, and the results come?
