18 minutes for QPR in a cup defeat to Blackburn.  Must start against Slovenia regardless of whether he qualifies or not.

FFS I was only asking. You can't say feck all on here without someone jumping down your throat!

What are his Scottish credentials? Apart from his name being shouted by Evening Times sellers...

Ha ha, like this, made me laugh. Nice one. 

Seem to remember an old guy shouting: 

'patch a dooze' 

Dispatch and News. Must have been Edinburgh.

Born in Greenwich and previously trained with Nigeria team. Nothing to see here I suspect.

Harvey Barnes is one to look at though, having a terrific season for West Brom.

Did Barnes not play for England U20's in the summer against Scotland?

He is currently playing for Englands U20's, so possibly.

Malky MacKay had a chat with him about joining up with the squad for the Netherlands game last year, and Eck has apparently met with him since, but came to nothing really (I suspect its maybe aiming a bit high, but can not blame them for at least asking if he is interested).

O.K he'll probably play for England then.

David Brooks actually played for England in Toulon last summer and then switched to Wales two months later.

Wales have been really hot on non declared players in recent years, think Ampadu of Chelsea is another England were looking at. With those two and Harry Wilson they've got another very good generation coming up to join the established core of Bale and Ramsey.

They did not look at Ampadu until it was to late.

Don Hutchinson was getting pretty heated on this on Talksport a few weeks ago, he had scouted him for the FA and said to get him capped as Wales will get him tied down at 17, only to be told “oh, we looked at him, he takes to many touches for our liking and will not fit into our system”

Don Hutchison was commenting in Talksport but he wasn't the scout.   It was - then - Exeter manager Paul Tisdall that contacted the FA as he'd been playing - and running the show - for Exeter's U18 team at 14 and he knew that Ampadu was eligible for Wales and that they were all over him.
