[QUOTE="gingergenius, post: 458773, member: 33219"] I'm not trying to knock George Ford or Christian Wade, because from the glimpses I've seen they look like exciting players. But that's it - glimpses. People (probably me included) were picking Cipriani as 10 for a future England 2011 team a few years ago, based on glimpses, and look where he is now. If we're talking about future, let's talk about short term, and there are a hell of a lot of young English players who may not have the potential of Wade or Ford (or may), but have certainly hit the straps in the Premiership and really deserve a shot SOON. And since I'm talking about a ten and a winger, let's suggest guys around that age, in that position, who have looked quality in the Prem for a while - Farrell, Short, Sharples are right at the top of my list of U22s in those positions.
