I think the thing with Woodburn and Wales is he's obviously represented them at younger age groups so it's only natural he makes the progression. However they aren't remotely interested in him contributing in the upcoming games, he's had a handful of minutes off the bench for us and iirc started the wolves game at home? Anyhow he's neither done enough for a call up and he hasn't got the experience of a senior pro who isn't getting many minutes but would be good to have around type thing.
It's not as bad as the Wilson one though, play a minute for your country then get fucked off for a few years because we only want to secure any possible future representing wales.
Wales haven't got strength in depth, Woodburn could be getting genuine minutes over the next few international breaks IF he keeps on getting in and around our first team squad. Thing is with Wilson the time he got the call up there was huge excitement over him at Liverpool and since that call up he's had bad luck with injuries and hasn't really been in and around the first team squad, at least not as much as the other youngsters.
And even if Wales have no intention of playing Woodburn after this set of internationals for a while, do we really think England would? Lets not kid ourselves though; him choosing Wales is better in terms of international game time to improve at a higher level as he will feature more for Wales than he would England. Also the fact that the FAW aren't as incompetent as their English counterparts and we are less likely to get fucked over like we have done in the past with the likes of Sturridge and, well, every single England player we let join up.
Anyway, don't want to derail this thread any further even if it is technically about the young lads. They're doing great and the fact we are even having this argument shows just how good some of them are.
