OMG How is Nardiello infront of Earnshaw for Wales Squad?

<table class="storycontent" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"><tbody><tr><td colspan="2"><div class="mxb"><h1>'Toshack will not pick' Earnshaw </h1></div></td></tr><tr><td class="storybody"><table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="203" align="right" border="0"><tbody><tr><td><div> <div class="cap">Rob Earnshaw has scored in two of his last four Wales starts</div></div></td></tr></tbody></table><p class="first">Robert Earnshaw has been warned he will not play for Wales again while John Toshack remains in charge. </p>

Championship new boys Nottingham Forest paid Derby County &pound;2.65m for the 27-year-old striker on Friday. </p>

But Earnshaw has been told he will not earn an international recall even if he hits the goal trail for Forest. </p>

Former Wales team-mate Iwan Roberts said: &quot;I don't think Earnie will play for Wales while Tosh is in charge, he's his seventh or eighth choice striker.&quot; </p>

Boss Toshack has ignored Earnshaw for Wales' recent friendlies, stating a lack of games for relegated Premier League side Derby as the reason. </p>

To add insult to injury, Toshack even named players - Mark Jones and Steve Evans - that had been relegated from the Football League in his initial 35-man squad for their current friendly double-header in Iceland and The Netherlands. </p>

Ched Evans' goal-scoring debut and Sam Vokes' encouraging first Wales cap has knocked forgotten man Earnshaw further down Toshack's striking pecking order. </p>

He was already behind captain Craig Bellamy, Freddy Eastwood, David Cotterill, Jermaine Easter, Daniel Nardiello and Craig Davies. </p>

Earnshaw, who has scored 13 goals in 40 Wales caps, is desperate to endear himself to his national team manager before the 2010 World Cup qualifiers start in September with a double-header against Azerbaijan and Russia. </p>

But BBC Wales Sport pundit Roberts said: &quot; Even if he gets off to a flier at Forest and starts banging in the goals, I get the feeling Tosh will take more convincing than that. </p>

&quot;Things didn't work out for Earnie at Derby. Billy Davies broke Derby's transfer record for him when they got into the Premier League then immediately disregarded him. </p>

&quot;Then Paul Jewell replaced Billy Davies and he didn't give Earnie a chance. Three managers can't be wrong - Earnie must not blame other people and take a look at himself. </p>

&quot;On his day Earnie can be a top, top centre-forward and he hasn't become a bad player and stopped scoring overnight. </p>

&quot;He seems to have lost his trademark desire and enthusiasm, perhaps complacency has crept in.&quot; </p>

Earnshaw - who has cost clubs approximately &pound;13m in transfer fees - has a proven goal-scoring track record in the Championship for both Norwich and Cardiff City. </p>

But his one goal-season for doomed Derby last term was one to forget. </p>

Now Forest boss Colin Calderwood has signed Earnshaw on a three-year deal with the hope to can fire double-European Champions Forest back into the top flight. </p>

&quot;Earnie must knuckle down and work hard at Nottingham Forest,&quot; said Roberts. </p>

&quot;He is now playing for traditionally one of the biggest clubs in the land. </p>

&quot;Forest have a huge fan base but Earnie must produce the goods because he is entering last chance saloon territory.&quot; </p></td></tr></tbody></table>

 

Fallen out with the manager?

Where have we seen that before? ff
