is he going to get in ahead of jones smalling or keane
i would say the lad from burnley and leicester would get a jump on laselles as well

however playing with better players over a longer period i have no doubts he would be progressing quicker
To be fair, it's a testament to how much progress he's actually made that you think he should be getting an England call-up by this point, if he was being properly coached. At one point, you never thought he should be our club captain (http://boards.footymad.net/showthrea...5#post38224955), and you didn't think he'd be talked about as a £20m player (http://boards.footymad.net/showthrea...2#post38316452), and you used to think he would just make a good bench warmer (http://boards.footymad.net/showthrea...3#post38578113)... so I guess that in the time he's been with Rafa he's made enough progress for you to think he's outgrown what he can achieve at this club. It just goes to show what you can achieve with dumb luck really.
