There isn't a manager in the game who wouldn't start him against France. Probably the bigger question is whether he gives him a run out against Latvia. Three day turnaround, maybe just give him 10 or 15 minutes in that one.

If Kenny dosent start Fergie for the France game he should be sacked on the spot and De Zerbi installed on a 15 yr contract. LOL

Delighted he scored again today but he is unproven at international level. It’s not worth taking a risk for such a big game vs France when we have established pros available to play up front e.g. Parrott, Keane. Look at the Rugby team yesterday they played experienced international players not kids. Kenny should consider seeing him off the bench vs Latvia but then get him a full game with the U21s to keep the fitness

Poor effort. 0/10 on the trollometer there I'm afraid.

He is 100% ready to play against France - he is arguably superior already to any other centre forward we have. Also, the buzz around him will be electric, could well feed into the entire team performance.

Scaloni wouldn't have started him back in Dec ...

Yes, no need to play him against Latvia. Bring him on with 20 minutes to go and the crowd will go crazy, but then start him against France.

I mean fair enough he did do that. But he didn't even give him a start against Malta (where we just about ended up winning) or give Smallbone any minutes so we could watch the usual players play poorly. Which makes some of us doubt that he will make the right decision regarding introducing young players over his faves. I think he will start Ferguson but he's clearly not above wierd decision making.

Rightly or wrongly, he's pretty consistent in that he doesn't tend to start lads in their first window. I'm not always supportive of that, but it seems to be policy of sorts. Smallbone will hopefully start vs Latvia and I think Evan will start vs France!

Not a hope he doesn't start vs France, would be the closest thing to managerial suicide for SK!

Easy to get carried away since he is playing Grimsby. Did his job and De Zerbi was very much thinking of the bigger picture taking him off straight away. LOL

Can’t wait to see him line up against France. The only possible excuse for not starting him would have been Idah started instead. 
He’s definitely playing and I hope personally Ogbene plays with him. Would be a perfect combination.

We've barely had a striker who can even score against poor teams for years though so still exciting! 

Ogbene as strike partner is a good shout. He's that kind of unpredictable player who can make something happen out of nothing that you need against top teams. Reckon it will probably be Obafemi though. Ogbene seems to have gone down the pecking order somewhat unfairly.

Ogbene is not a central striker. Good option if we change to a 523 with himself and Johnston either side of a ferguson/Idah.
