We all know we could do a better job with the England team than Crapello, so who would you pick for the starting eleven? Plus seven subs? No apologies are offered to the non English members! GK - Joe Hart RB - Micah Richards CB - John Terry CB - Joleon Lescott LB - Ashley Cole RW - Ashley Young CM - Scott Parker CM - Jack Wilshere LW - Adam Johnson CF - Andy Carroll CF - Wayne Rooney Subs - Robbie Elliott Gary Cahill Leighton Baines Stewart Downing Dale Stephens Tom Cleverley Darren Bent I've had enough of Lampard, Gerrard, Joe Cole, Ferdinand et al. They are ****e for England.
GK - Hart RB - Richards CB - Shawcross CB - Terry LB - Baines RM - Young CM - Gerrard CM - Huddlestone LM - Johnson ST - Carroll ST - Rooney Subs - Carson G Johnson Cahill Wilshere Lennon Bent Crouch
GK - Joe Hart RB - Micah Richards CB - John Terry (captain) CB - Chris Smalling LB - Leighton Baines RW - Ashley Young CM - Jack Wilshere CM - Scott Parker LW - Stewart Downing CF - Wayne Rooney CF - Darren Bent Subs - David Stockdale (who else is there that still wants to play?) Gary Cahill Phil Jones Theo Walcott James Milner Danny Welbeck Andy Carroll Nice inclusion of elliot and stephens Ponder
I certainly think young Dale could do a better job than Frank Lampard. I am sick of seeing that overpaid Chelsea-bun lumbering around in an England shirt.
Must admit I get a bit fed up with England games especially when FHB jnr. sticks his England flags all over the place.
They only say that when there doesn't seem any chance of an England call-up. Look that at that Frimpong fella at Arsenal. He wants to use our Under 21s as a stepping-stone to the full Ghana team. That rule is a bloody disgrace and makes a mockery of the England youth set-up. Stuart Pearce shouldn't touch him with a barge-pole.
Robbie did play for the Irish under 19's but is still eligible for the full England team, probably at bowls, or maybe even pie eating !
My mate Ray is the World's greatest conker player. He represents England and thrashes the other countries on a regular basis.
Lovely performance tonight - Scotty Parker Man of the Match IMO, and he took some real fierce stick tonight - with Rooney not far behind. Kit hideous beyond belief, like a girls hockey team. Bulgaria, even with both the Petrov's in midfield, utterly inept and completely outplayed. Brilliant result for Wales as well. Should be entertaining on Wednesday.
Aaargh - my pet hate, Rocky - it's what God made Yellow Pages for... Very well thanks, very happy with our start and working hard on coming down to Stade Wycombe for the midweek game.
i have just been made redundant so have time on my hands,hopefully i will find a new job soon,but it has given me time to sort the jobs out around the house.hopefully we can have a pint when we meet your lot,if i have got a job by then i might even buy you one
With the Euros starting in a couple of weeks, I thought I’d resurrect this thread Disappointed that Gomez will miss out, and Pope looks unlikely to play with his recent operation. A couple of years ago it was quite clear what the starting eleven would look like, not so much now. Id like to see Grealish unleashed, I really rate him.
