Same here, I am not feeling like that he should be playing.

The main thing is, he’s not amazing. I don’t think – CL performance aside – he’s much better than say, Rob Green. If he was, I’d be thinking that we should snap him up. But I don’t see why we’d bother when we already have players of around the same good-not-great quality.

If he wasn’t a goalie I’d instantly say hell no. But unless someone manages to collectively cure all English goalies of their suicidal tendencies when asked to play for England I’m open to the idea. Would much prefer us finding a young English born goalie who’s half decent obviously, preferably before 2010 but it seems unlikely and until that day I live in fear every time James puts on the England jersey.
