The Tottenham right back has come out and reflected on a difficult summer that he has had to endure at Tottenham Hotspur after missing out on the 2012 European Championships with England after an impressive season at White
Hart Lane...
The Tottenham right back has come out and reflected on a frustrating summer that he had to spend at home after missing out on the England national team squad which took part in the 2012 European Championships.
Walker had a fantastic season with Tottenham and was a sure shot inclusion in Roy Hodgson’s final squad for the European Championships but a late injury all but erased any chances that the Englishman had of representing his country
in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749’s right back in the 2012 EUROs if it wasn’t for a broken toe that he suffered just a few weeks before the end of the Premier League season with
Tottenham.
England did take part in the EUROs without http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ashley-Cole-c6809
and Ashley Young missed their penalty kicks.
Walker had to watch the agonizing and nerve wrecking defeat from his home which had a frustrating effect on the defender who is known to take the initiative whenever he plays for Tottenham.
Walker said, "It has not been the easiest of summers. It was horrible watching the Euros. I had to watch it at home and it was hard as I really wanted to be out there. It was unfortunate the injury came when it did. I felt my form
was good and I felt fit and fresh. But sometimes things have happen for a reason.”
He added, “I’m still young enough to play in several major tournaments, but you can’t take things for granted. That’s why I was so gutted. I’m looking forward to new season. It’s a new manager and we have to impress him. We all
start from scratch and hope you do enough to play.”
