Twisting your words as usual.

No it was clearly in response to your claim that all Real players get picked or media go mad as a reason for them being called up.

Then you argued against that yourself.

Pretty much you have spoke clueless nonsense from the start.

Dont need to educate you any more on this. Im oot.

Don't think I need to be educated by someone who writes about a tournament called euro 2014.

I'm not sure Odriozola is better than Roberto.

Also if we're talking about performances on the field Roberto has been easily better than Carvajal who has been shocking for the entire season.

Carvajal has gotten back in form recently and even if Roberto is marginally better than Odriozola right now he just isn't rated as a RB while Odriozola is. The experience for Odriozola is worth far more than the one for Roberto.

Roberto is not the one that should be sad for not going to Russia as it was clear from the start that Spain don't rate him as a RB, Marcos Alonso is the unlucky one here.

What's the ruckus here? It's obvious he isn't good enough to be in Spain's squad. Neither as a RB or as a CM. Just because other undeserving players who don't even play in his position have been called, doesn't mean that Bob should be. It's irrelevant.

Just goes to show that the world doesn't quite rate Bob the same as some Barca fans. I personally tend to agree with that point of view.

Well, truth is that he has shown during the season that he deserves a spot as Carvajal's back up.
At the same time, Odriozola is a really promising player and has played his entire (young) career as a right-back...

That's great news for us, as Sergi and Nelson will be in great shape back in August.

If what Cadena Ser reported is true he didn't even make the 35 man list and Lopetegui apparently doesn't like him as an RB.

Pretty crazy to think even if Roberto would be a nailed down starter here for many years, it seems as long as Lopetegui is Spain's manager he will never get a real sniff at being called up for any major tournament by the looks of it.

It all comes down to what the coach wants as well. While Valverde and Lucho certainly rate Roberto at RB it doesn't mean Lopetegui has to either. It seems Roberto doesn't have what Lopetegui wants out of a RB compared to the likes of Carvajal,Odriozola and Azpilicueta and even guys like Juanfran,Mario Gaspar and possibly Bellerin as well.

Tough luck for Bob but Spain is stacked in so many positions.

Maybe the Spain manager is old fashioned and actually wants his RB to have some idea of how to play the role .

Proper old school that ... ..
