AJ 1,218 Posted February 19, 2014 If you score 1 goal in 17 appearances then you simply aren''t doing good enough.Imagine the outcry if England called up a striker with those stats! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
City 2nd 191 Posted February 19, 2014 He has a long way to go to become a recognised premier league striker - yet alone international striker.To do that you have to score goals - regularly! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Molly Windley 76 Posted February 19, 2014 Im surprised that Fer is in there, had a decent season but nothing to force his way into the Dutch national side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tetteys Jig 830 Posted February 19, 2014 He was in before, and it''s a 33 man squad. Not surprised at all. He''s been much better than RVW as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used to hate him, as he''d always score past England or english teams. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tetteys Jig 830 Posted February 19, 2014 In fact even closer to home, Danny Welbeck kept his place despite getting 2 goals in 40 games last season! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
