England National Team Watch

by Gil Mon Oct 03, 2011 6:03 pm

Goalkeepers
Scott Carson, Joe Hart, David Stockdale

Defenders
Leighton Baines, Gary Cahill, Ashley Cole, Phil Jagielka, Phil Jones, Micah Richards, John Terry, Kyle Walker

Midfielders
Gareth Barry, Stewart Downing, Adam Johnson, Frank Lampard, James Milner, Scott Parker, Theo Walcott, Ashley Young

Forwards
Darren Bent, Andy Carroll, Wayne Rooney, Danny Welbeck, Bobby Zamora.

I know I say this almost everytime but surely THIS is the worst English squad in decades?

I know the likes of Wilshere, Cleverley, Gerrard, Ferdinand, Smalling etc are out but *bleep* me. No idea how Sturridge didn't get a call up either (not that I'm complaining.)

Gareth barry, james milner LoooooL

If Greece can win a Euro with 11 dudes most people never heard of then England can get by with that squad.

The English always have an excuse ready don't they Very Happy

(I still want them to do well though, they deserve a moment in the sun again after all these years.)

by Guest Mon Oct 03, 2011 6:15 pm

Surprised at Exclusion of Sturridge as well especially because of Zamora.

Also think Defoe has been good....but fook me, that Central Midfield is dire.

Thank god Capello was smart enough not to call Gerrard after playing 45 minutes in 6 months :bow:

by Ganso Mon Oct 03, 2011 6:16 pm

how is sturridge not there?hes the 2nd best English striker :coffee:

by michael1 Mon Oct 03, 2011 6:17 pm

To be honest the little i have seen of johnson he impressed me a lot more than sturridge but i wpuldve selected both of them.

Cant beleive garry and milner are still playin lol

For me i think englands problem has been that use really havent had a solid 11 to choose from use are constantly changing line ups.

Capello just like the previous coaches doesnt have a prffered 11 and he needs to decide one soon.

And then he can go from there.

LOL @ all those England haters.....who then wank on Argentina or Brazil who are as bad if not worse than England in internationals Laughing

by B-Mac Mon Oct 03, 2011 6:22 pm

if he plays Rooney as lone striker again.... :facepalm:

by Zealous Mon Oct 03, 2011 6:22 pm

Argentina won something that wasn't in black and white.

And Brazil wankfests are usually justified. Afro

by Magricos Mon Oct 03, 2011 6:24 pm

What England haters ?

So true.

Most English fans are man enough to admit we're *bleep* awful atm but Argentina, Brazil, Italy etc are no better either.

England are no Greece though

by B-Mac Mon Oct 03, 2011 6:26 pm

team needs to look like this

Hart
Richards Cahill Terry Cole
Parker Barry
Walcott Rooney Young
Welbeck

cringe at the CM tho

*bleep* it throw Jones in at CM instead of Barry lol

by Magricos Mon Oct 03, 2011 6:29 pm

Italy are better though.

by Zealous Mon Oct 03, 2011 6:30 pm

Why isn't there more love for Parker? Sure he isn't the best player but the man will bust a lung if you tell him to.

Really love his hustle.

How so?

by Amar Mon Oct 03, 2011 6:33 pm

What starting lineup would you guys want to see for the Euros?

Its hard finding a place for Gerrard or Lampard cause I doubt Capello will play without a targetman. I would go with this though:

Hart
Walker Ferdinand Terry Cole
Parker Wilshere
Walcott Gerrard Young
Rooney

by Zealous Mon Oct 03, 2011 6:34 pm

@Gil

Four world cups etc etc

by RED Mon Oct 03, 2011 6:39 pm

Milner, Barry, Carrol ............. :facepalm:

will agree with brazil and argentina being crap right now.

But not italy we have come on in leaps and bounds since the world cup, dnt think england can really say the same.

Espc when the coach after 3 years still doesnt have a preffered line up.

Italy shouldve of beaten germany and we beat spain, yes i know they were freindlies but still cant they dont count for anything.

I mean can u honestly england couldve done better
