just to throw a dash of reality out there, he has played very well in friendlies before. It is in the cut and thrust of competitive games that he has been found severely lacking.
Point taken about commitment to the jersey though. Very admirable.

Have to agree with above points. Never been a fan but the lad impressed me last nigt.
To be fair to Green he plays a role he's unfamiliar with for us. He's more of attacking box to box midfielder for his club, at least he was with Derby anyway. I don't think his competitive performances were really that bad outside of the night against Russia where everybody was pretty poor. If I remember right he mixed up the losing of possession and winning it back in the away games against Armenia and Slovakia. I think there was every chance he would have improved with more games, which sadly hasn't been the case with Glenn Whelan over the last five years. I'm not saying he's the best option we have, I just think the dismay at the very sound of his name in unjustified.
Wednesday night's game was a competitive enough game, right until we scored the second.
Would he make it into the next squad? maybe if one of them (Andrews, Whelan McCarthy Meyler) gets injured and Gibson is still hurting.
I'd have to say, he made a case to be in ahead of Whelan.

Green signs for Ipswich; could be involved today.
he's on the bench for this afternoon's game VS Barnsley
Super Paul Green puts Ipswich 2-1 up at home to Bournemouth and, as things stand, Ipswich are in the playoff spots.
Very important goal by Green to give Ipswich a 2-1 lead against Bournemouth. It moves Ipswich into the final playoff spot as things stand.
Whatever Charlie!
Green has barely played this year and Cox isn't even on the bench for Forest this afternoon. Would be sincerely disappointed if they are called up in the summer. Need to be giving other players the chance.
Super Paul Green scores a header from a Stephen Hunt cross to put Ipswich 2-1 up against Sheffield Wednesday, but it's one game too late for them to make the playoffs.
signed for Rotherham, two year contract: http://www.themillers.co.uk/news/art...n-1707884.aspx
signed for Oldham on a one year deal: http://www.oldhamathletic.co.uk/news...s-3212161.aspx
Didn't realise he's 33, thought he was younger
He was still in his 20's when this thread was last used. :)
This journeyman's journey's next stop is Crew Alex after Oldham set him free.
