I have not the time to waste reading into it but if this kid can play for England and then he can decide IF he wants to play for us again smacks of delusion to me.

Once you play for the senoir side that should be that. He has been honoured with a call up. Either make sure he fully appreciates that or otherwise clear off!

Its because its only a friendly mate, he can still play for who ever he likes until he plays in a competitive match

The thing is it smacks of desperation to me. Seems like they're only capping him to stop IC having him. It should be his country of birth should have first refusal in situations like this, where the player is undecided

not sure about desperation. hes a talented up and coming youngster who has apparantly in the past indicated he would prefer to play for England. Id get him in asap, we're hardly blessed with a whole raft of quality players.

Saying that there does seem to be a few more decent younsters about than we thought a couple of years back; Sterling, Cleverly, Wilshere, Smalling, Wellbeck, and Forsters playing well for celtic

My point is that when ever you pull on a shirt to represenbt 'your' country then that is that, friendly or not. We (the FA) must decide if they want him, can convince him and keep him or don't pick him in the first place. It makes a mockery of representing your country if you can simply switch allegiance.

I agree but some peoples situations are a bit different/complicated than most. Carl jenkinson is another. I think Zaha will stick with England, thats what has always been suiggested in the past.

I'm going to do the same with my taxes.

Pay them once and then if I don't like it I'll pay my taxes to another country instead ....... albeit an off shore account.

But how do you decide to not pay VAT and use an offshore account? I thought you were talking about income Tax and tax on interest.
