I don't think there are locker room rumblings but considering he missed half of WCQ and we did ok and the rest of the team seem to up their game when he is not around does tell a tale.
Having said that, the team played well against Belgium with him in the lineup, he creates space and makes the other team plan and worry about him. I knew it was a mistake for him to take the penalty, I still think there is an immaturity to his character, but after all he is still a very young man. There is probably some lingering hurt around the PK which had it been successful could have changed so much, but what's done is done.
Herdman explained why he said what he said, I think you have to have that attitude and be at a level where you have to back it up. The underdog role of 1986, just doesn't suit them anymore, we're beyond that and if we're not we have to get beyond that. This is a good start, the attitude not the loss.
Serbia, Croatia, potato, potata, tomato, tomata.
