The Next England Squad

Johnson is bloody terrible.

Cahill   

Nice two younger players coming on

Our defenders looked like a bunch of happy hobbits after that third goal.

Lallana top man.

Who was it that said England's best chance was through set pieces?

Who cares, Puriliation.

Johnson looks safer on the left

Would look safer at home.

Flanagan or Smalling would do a better job than Johnson. Suarez is going to destroy him.

Am I forgetting someone or has the RB situation always been grim, other than the amazing Gary Neville ofcourse? I seem to remember Danny Mills and Luke Young getting a fair amount of games.   

Ross Barkley for Rooney will be a common replacement hope he gets to start some games.

Kyle Walker was actually having a very good season for us this year before getting injured. Certainly good enough to have been in the squad. Like Johnson though, both seem to step down a level confidence wise when playing for England. Tis the curse of the white shirt.

Anyway, only English fans could moan about our team after we just thrashed Peuruo. Miserable c**ts.

Welbeck I bet can out ran any player in the team after playing 90 minutes.

HUMILIATION of them INCAS FFS MES AMIS!!!

This made it even worse :

Likely line-up for tonight (Milner as rightback, could do ok as long as he doesn't have to deal with height):

Foster/Forster

Milner - Jones - Smalling - Shaw

Lampard (c) - Wilshere

Chamberlain - Barkley - Rooney

Lambert

Are people going to blame Lampard if "England's best midfielder" has a bad game (if he survives not getting injured of course)?

Surely we're not going to play the B team???

Reports I read said that Rooney is the only one likely to keep his place as he tries to build on his fitness, lampard to be captain, milner to be right-back.

Rickie with a chance to impress tonight - should anything happen to Wazza he needs to be England's saviour. Hodge isn't going to start Sterling at this WC is he? A bit baffling.

Secret weapon - he wants the opposition unprepared   

How many players in this game might be starters against Italy?

At most 3.

Rooney, Wilshere and Shaw? Though Shaw is unlikely.

Thanks.

Wilshere should be up for debate too.

Who would have thought this defence might get caught?

Bring back Matthew Upson   

Ecuador seem to have decided they can give us the ball all night and we won't score ....

always possible he'll fit in Milner somewhere.

Surely not if he has any more touches like he just did.
Front lot are doing okay

what's the point of playing the B-team when you need to train your A-team for the WC?

and what's the point of training penalties so soon?

In the link below, Gerrard says England are already training penalties with the help of a psychiatrist.
