£3 Million Striker good enough for England but not Coyle

Sordell's been picked again for the under 21 squad AGAIN!

The best finisher at the club - didn't Coyle say at the fans forum a few weeks back? Olympic player.

Coyle's fourth choice striker behind the likes of N'good the scorer of 3 league goals in THIRTYSEVEN appearances.

Only at Bolton, only under Coyle do such thing happen - nowhere else, nowhere else at all!



Full squad for games versus Serbia on 12 and 16 October:

Goalkeepers: Ben Amos (Hull City - loan from Manchester United), Jack Butland (Birmingham City), Declan Rudd (Norwich City), Jason Steele (Middlesbrough)

Defenders: Ryan Bennett (Norwich City), Steven Caulker (Tottenham Hotspur), Nathaniel Clyne (Southampton), Craig Dawson (West Bromwich Albion), Tom Lees (Leeds United), Jack Rodwell (Manchester City), Danny Rose (Sunderland - loan from Tottenham Hotspur), Adam Smith (Tottenham Hotspur), Andre Wisdom (Liverpool)

Midfielders: Jordan Henderson (Liverpool), Tom Ince (Blackpool), Henri Lansbury (Nottingham Forest), Jason Lowe (Blackburn Rovers), Josh McEachran (Middlesbrough - loan from Chelsea), Nick Powell (Manchester United), Jonjo Shelvey (Liverpool), Raheem Sterling (Liverpool), Wilfried Zaha (Crystal Palace)

Attackers: Nathan Delfouneso (Blackpool - loan from Aston Villa), Marvin Sordell (Bolton Wanderers), Andros Townsend (Tottenham Hotspur), Connor Wickham (Sunderland)

I know what you're saying, but he's not being picked for England on recent form - he's been awful.

I agree that he's been awful - have you seen his twitter page?

Yeah he's been awful in his 2(?) starts, his sitting on the bench in street clothes and then his 10 minute sub appearances.

why hasn't he scored 30 goals by now?

Can't be put any better than that.

How can anyone say he's been awful when Coyle won't even give him a chance. It's his signing he should be desperate to see him perform not stunting his development and crushing his confidence.

Why does that sound so familar to how Megson treated the team?

I thought Sordell looked to have struck up a usefull partnership with Afobe in the Barca B game

His persistence with the old guard in favour of younger, potentially better players irritates me more than the fact that he doesn't know what he's doing tactically.

So the England manager is dafter the Coyle ...... or he can see something in Sordell that our Scotman can't see.

I don't know myself ...... haven't seen enough of Sordell to have an opinion..... he scored more than SKD/Ngog/Afi all put together while at Watford. OC has me baffled.
