    He'll definitely get offered one, don't know if he'd accept it. According to a German journalist Southgate has spoken to him, probably not any truth in it though.

    To be honest I think we can write him off. Hes destined to play for Germany

    Why? There has been nothing yet to suggest we have lost him yet. Apparently he was called up to the last squads but Bayern didn’t want him to travel during these times for a pretty pointless friendly game for the U19’s from what I heard ( can’t confirm if that’s true though tbf ) but there’s been nothing written as far as I can tell that he’s destined for Germany.

    Gut feeling. Hes playing in Germany now. Speaks German at home as his language. Just think a few German players will whisper in his ear. Hope I'm wrong

    I dunno, let’s just wait and see, we might lose him, maybe not but I think we might have a few things that go in our favour. He’s already in our system and he knows it so he is familiar with it and all the players plus I think there’s a better chance for him to establish himself with our seniors for the position he plays. I think Germany are pretty stacked for attacking midfielders where as ours blow hot and cold and I think our pool is a lot thinner than the Germans. I think we might have to try and get him in the seniors before he really becomes established though as if he starts starting a lot of games for Bayern and not been playing for our seniors it would become a lot tougher.

    Isn’t that deep though plus Alli has dropped off a cliff at the moment so wouldn’t include him.

    He's a wide player. Well, he has been for Bayern anyway.

    Ronaldo Vieira scores his first goal for Hellas Verona. Has started & played the full 90 in their last 3 games so he looks to be doing well.

    Bellingham with an assist
     
  12. Madueke learned European matches can be hard work. He has the satisfaction of an assist in the 1-2 win in Cyprus over Omonia Nicosia.

    Bellingham had a good game today for Dortmund, uses the ball very well and was involved plenty. Good platform to work on.

    I must say, I'm really surprised of the amount of game time he's getting at his tender age. Fair play to Dortmund though, they keep their word and are fantastic for youth.

    Its quite funny though, over on the German forums they have a real issue about Bellingham starting in midfield despite him actually playing very well today but they are reluctant to give him credit. There is even a ‘ England fan ‘ who is always complaining about him despite actually never seeing the guy on any of our of forums so quite why it says he’s an England fan is a mystery and quite odd I must say.

    Probably similar to the 'england fans' on here who are actually Irish and Welsh to feed info back to their forums.
    From a German perspective, I can see why they would take issue. Why start a foreign 17 year old over a home grown 17 year old? In the prem, no one blinks an eyelid if a French 17 year old plays. In Germany, they have a big focus on bringing youth through the system. I think that may be why.

    Yeah from a German prospective I can understand the concerns as it’s what we have had to endure for god knows how long having an detrimental effect on our own youngsters but that England fan is odd if he indeed is an England fan.

    Tough. How many Spanish. German or French kids get picked up by English clubs over English Youngsters. I still say there should be a minimum of 5 or 6 English players in each match day side. Same applies to every league

    No I agree hundred percent. I'm just saying over the last 15 years or so, German football has put alot of emphasis on youth development and has invested a hell of alot of money to become more inclusive within their multi cultural communities. From a German point of view, I could see why they would take issue. From an English point of view, I'm just glad that a champions League club is giving more minutes to English players then a mid table English club (wolves)

    I'd be willing to bet he isn't English. I'd guess he's probably a salty Scotsman. They've forgotten what it's like to experience tournament football. They got beat 3-0 last year by Borat :)
