England's current LB, Is it just me ?

[TheChipPrince]

If you can't get a game for your club you should have no chance getting one for England.

Bridge playing 15 games a season is still a better option than 15 other prem left backs who play 50 games a season...

That's debatable. But swap the 15 games for 8mins. Is that the figure he's played since May?
No debate.

Ask SWP if he thinks Bridge should stay.

I think he should be dropped purely for lack of bottle.  It's not so much that he doesn't play enough for Chelsea, more that he's happy not playing much for Chelsea.

A Gooner coming on here slagging off England's greatest LB is a bit LOL STFU and GTFO IMO.

When are the goontards going to realise that Wenger wanted Ashley out of Arsenal as he (like many others) see Clichy as potentially a better LB than Cole. At the time, with Judas Campbell turning into a donkey, Wenger wanted another CB captable of playing at the higest level. He saw Gallas was unhappy at chelsea and with him already thinking about Clichy playing a LB he didn't mind Cole going to Chelsea as a swap deal. Otherwise why didnt the Arsenal board give a home grown player, who they've had since he was 12 years old, £5k more a week?

As for left backs in the world atm I would say Evra>Cole>Clichy imo. I haven't seen Abidal play recently, I've heard that he has been playing bad though.

So to finish off, tell me children: How many trophies have Arsenal won since Ashley left?

I'd play Barry at left-back.

I take it you're not English?

I heard that Clichy has taken the left-back spot in the France team from Evra

A quick look on google tells me that Abidal played in the last match against Romania and Clichy played in the game before that.

All I know is that France have too many good lb's atm.

Good post. Problem for Arsenal is Gallas has turned into a bit of liability. Maybe Mourinho had it right that he's a full back after all.
