Sterling & Gomez Bust Up

[Pop]

I seen Bally punch Gordon Armstrong a few times at the Charlie Hurley Centre ... Grow a pair man

Good to know that as Bally punched someone at the Charlie Hurley Centre it is therefore acceptable behaviour.

Imagine dropping a player of Sterling’s quality Just as England looked on the verge of having a really good young team this happens, couldn’t make it up really.

Good management from Southgate in my opinion, we have as good as qualified and he making a bit of an example of Sterling that club football should stay at the club

Let's not be sniffy here - this is a must-win game. Win this and the one on Thursday is the dead rubber, not this one. And Sterling is our best player.

I also think its risky because it unleashes another media feeding frenzy on our best player and this could have a lasting impact given his tribulations with them. We have to be careful with Sterling, he's our best asset.

I don't like discipline in the media glare. If he wanted to punish Sterling then he could have just dropped him and said "tactics". Or "resting him". And kept it all in-house. Especially as it seems like the players are taking a good amount of responsibility for themselves.

In this day and age its impossible to keep things like this out the media unfortunately

Ridiculous that, kick the scouse kernt Gomez out. He wouldn’t be missed

Exactly - people always back the WUM saying the target has no thick skin etc- everyone cracks eventually - Gomez is small time

So all the England squad agree that Sterling should be dropped from the Montenegro game. Imagine he will feel uncomfortable with the rest of the lads.

If I got a had of someone else at work by the neck I don’t think I’d just be getting sent home with a flea in my ear.

If anything it’s a much more competitive atmosphere with higher stakes/reward.

I think you’re resorting to name calling as you can’t justify his actions/what you wanted Southgate to do.

I think you're being ridiculous now.

How so? Running one of the largest companies in the world isn’t as competitive as international football?

Gomez looks a bit sneery on the slo-mo - like he thinks he's better cos he's a bit taller

all seems a bit daft to me but Gareth knows what he's doing

Sterling scratched Gomez like a little girl.

Well they're not running about the board room flying into tackles with reps from Ebay are they? Fuckin' hell man.

You don't take the p'ss when you win especially given Sterling's background so he was sought out.

Competitiveness/extremely high levels of stress and pressure isn’t exclusive to sports.

No, they aren’t tackling people (bit of a childish analogy) but they will be under as much stress if not more and the level they have to perform at to get to that level is just as high if not higher. So my point still stands.
