I would not be having that lumbering fool Heskey in there for starters. He has to be one of the worst players to wear an England shirt.

 

And Carragher, although a good defender in his pomp, now has the turning circle of a channel ferry. If i can get a bet on him giving a penalty away at decent odds i am taking it as its money in the bank

Even as a Scotsman i want England to do reasonably well this year. I'm astonished that Ashley Young is nowhere to be seen yet Walcott and Wright-Phillips both make it.

 

Think three goalkeepers will all go, even with the prospect of a suspension or injury being a very small one it's still too big a chance to risk taking two.

 

Baines or Warnock will be there to cover Cole so it's a toss of a coin over which one will get the chop. Personally i'd have Warnock over Baines every time as he's a better defender but would admit Baines gives more going forward.

 

Dawson, Upson (if King's fitness holds up), Baines. Thats three; other four in midfield as i think all five forwards will all go. Huddlestone, Lennon, Wright Phillips and Parker to miss out.

pick your 23...... :search:

 

That's what I reckon Capello will submit.

 

Why Leighton Baines

 

Backup for Ashley Cole

 

 

 

But who will pick up "the" metatarsal injury.....?

Don't agree with a few of the 30 but if I had to choose from it....

And you can now scratch Terry from the list

 

Ok, maybe not.

 

I am amazed the SWP got in ahead of Walcot, they are both useless dollops that cant cross their T's but Walcot has a bit more class about him. Johnson omitted when he is our only left footer and in excellent form. And the final insult is that lumbering donkey Heskey being picked ahead of Bent.

 

No balance in my opinion and yet again no left option and we are stuck with the Lumpard and Gerrard quandary.

 

I feel like quoting alot of anglo saxon but whats the point.

 

Fed up! :(
