Whilst we were, avoiding defeat ensured that we didn't get Germany, not to mention that I just didn't want them to lose anyway.
Walcott has only a small amount of games in the championship and
no experience of playing in the top league and I think that the u21's are a bit different to the first team. So dumping him into the first team is asking too much of him. Like I did say, maybe in the future, but I would have liked him to gotten a bit of experience first. The national team is not the academy side after all.
