Right now (I know, I know..) I was thinking of Steve Hodge, which had me immediately humming the above Kerry Dixon chant.
Apart from the diminutive Forest and Rangers midfielder, and the expert penalty-taker from South-West London's Finest Racists, what other players of yesteryear were incredibly lucky to play for England?
"The opposite of love, after all, is not hate, but indifference."
Were it not for injuries, I think Wellbeck would have been a top, top player for England. The kid had it all, just needed to develop physically but injuries cost him. Shame for him and us. Pleased he’s having a late swansong though.

I remember when Sven started I thought it was a breath of fresh air to see a manager willing to pick outside the Man Utd, Arsenal, Spurs, Liverpool, boys club. I think, famous quiz question, Chris Powell got a cap in his first international in charge at Villa Park.
But over time I thought he completely degraded and destroyed what it meant to win an England cap and one of the reasons I gave Southgate so much leeway is he brought that back.
Evidence for the prosecution… Jermaine Jenas has 21 England caps Phil Neville 59 (!!!) (Gerry Francis got 12) Emile Heskey 62 (7 goals, amazed it was that many tbh) Danny Mills 19 Kieron Dyer 20 Zat Knight has 2 England caps Paul Konchesky has 2 England caps Anthony Gardner. Gavin McCann.
Always liked Heskey as a striker, good hold up play, knew where the net was, hard as fùcking coffin nails. Very much like Helgusson was for us. And he scored against Germany in the 5-1 win ( although I reckon most posters here would have got a couple in that game).
Anyways, Tony Daly. Possibly the fastest, most untalented man I've ever seen at Loftus Road (you're getting a massive hall pass here Tony Scully).
