The legend of Arsenal Ray Parlor revealed that he wanted more Caps of England than 10, which he managed during his successful career, although he still had a good time with the national team.
Despite the regular starter for ArsenalOne of the best teams in Premier League In the peak years, England Managers often skipped the salon in favor of more exciting options.
A Falling Out with Glenn Hoddle certainly did not help – Parlor received the Arsenal Arsenal Award of the season in 1997/98, when he won the league and FA cup double, but he failed to make England’s team for World Cup In France this summer.

Regardless, Parlor still has nice memories, thinking about his career with three lions, while recognizing the quality of players with whom he had to compete.
“The game for my country was my most difficult moment,” says only Parlor Fourfour. “I probably regret the only one that I would like to have more hats, but Alan Shearer He was one of the best players he has ever played for England, and he got only one Premier League medal, so I can’t complain – I got more medals for my club.
“I came up with Glenn Hoddle at the beginning of Eileen Drewery, but Kevin Keegan came in and was a completely different manager – very good with players. Sven had great helpers arriving through Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard and Paul Paul Scholes were still in the team and was younger than me, so it was always difficult to get to the band – and you had David Beckhamwho got 115 hats. If I played in the right middle, I had no chance to play before him! “
Instead, Parlor managed only 10 performances for England during his career, all of which appeared in 1999 and 2000 under the command of Kevin Keegan. He could not celebrate a goal for his country, with a long-range effort, which hit the bar and crossed the line incorrectly not awarded during a 0-0 draw with Finland In October 2000
Despite this, Parlor still looks at the sympathy away from the field – including Shearer’s generosity when it comes to cards.
“If I played Ireland Or ScotlandI would probably have 100 hats, but I really liked the game in England, “Parlor admits” and we won a lot of game cards!
“I played with Teddy Sheringham, Dennis Wise and Jamie Redknapp. Teddy was difficult to overcome – he was a poker – and Dennis was also good. There were also a few bad players and you could throw him all their money from them!
“Michael Owen was not the best. Alan Shearer was like Christmas! It was fun. “
