[QUOTE="Peat, post: 804491, member: 42330"] Probably would tbh. Think he's only blown his gasket twice in an England shirt and in neither case majorly. Well, three times but without getting caught for one of them. Hartley's big sin always was, and always will be, doing the square root of SFA around the pitch. He got the set-piece right (or at least as right as anyone does) and then flopped around the pitch like a blancmange. A busy blancmange I'll give you, but blancmange never the less. How a man so big can achieve so little sometimes baffles me. He's kicked on a little on that to be fair under Jones but its still pretty painfully obvious that the guy in the 16 shirt is probably just a flat out better player than him. But hey, we're winning, so everything's happy. That he's a bit of a headcase is a failing, and a pretty ugly one in combination with the above - its one thing to pick Mr Boring but Reliable, but a whole 'nother thing if he's not that reliable. And not a good look on the captain. But it works, so all is forgiven. [/QUOTE]
