MunKy Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 Shit, I'll be at Download when the 1st England match is on. Also the squad could have been better. Lets hope theres a couple changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaggle64 Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 So they are taking Rooney. I like the look of the squad, it's got a good mix of young talent and experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fields Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 Theo Walcott? Sven has got to be having a laugh there. He hasn't even played in the Premiership for goodness sake. I'm sorry but this is a disgrace, there must be at least 20 more suitable strikers than him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramar Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 What the hell is Jenas and Hargreaves doing there? Wright-Philips and King (if he isn't injured) are so much better, even Kevin Nolan is better. The selection of Theo Walcott has annoyed me. How ever much I like Arsenal Englishmen (however limited) appear in England line ups, a 17 year old lad who has never played a highly competitive match should not be selected for the worlds biggest footballing competition. Much more experienced goal scorers are needed, his time will come but its not now. I shall eat my words if he does play and is amazing and wins us the competition.

Monopolyman Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 Defoe should be a forward instead of Walcott, and Wright Phillips should be in there aswell. Also, I doubt having Rooney in there is a great idea, seeing it is doubtful he will be able to play before the world cup. Otherwise, I have no quarrals. As for Hargreaves being in the squad, I think that's a pretty good decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platty Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 Lennon deserves his place but walcott over Bent ?? whats that all about? hargreaves over richardson? damn sven damn I reckon we gotta play 5 in midfield cos lets face it rooney isnt gonna be fit. We could have Carrick in the holding role with Beckham, Gerrard, Lampard and Joe Cole going forward to support one up front...owen or crouch (crouch can hold the ball up, cole, gerrard and lamps can run off him and get the goals) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fields Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 I wonder how much of a say David Dein had in the squad selection... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nekunando Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 ..Nancy picked Theo Wallcott and Hargreaves ovre SWP and Defoe.. oh dear.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noodleman Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 Darren Bent must be pretty pissed of right now I mean 18 goals this season for a Charlton team that have been on holiday since January. At least Defoe was named as a back up and will blatantly replace Rooney. And Haregreaves ffs other then that no real problems with the team.

gaggle64 Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 I don't get what this thing is everyone has about Theo Walcott's selection. Sure he's inexperienced but he's young, talented and has been shown to display exceptional ability. There are plenty of experienced premiership players who suck ass in comparison. Besides with Rooney looking set to play after all it's not as if we don't have enough reliable players, though I still question his fitness. then again, we may probably not need the big guns until the 2nd round with our grouping. Not so sure about the defensive tactics that the line-up suggests, but it is a workable stategy. Serbia and Montenegro wiil make it to the finals, just you wait, we'll show you how much we rule... not. The last time someone said something like that, Korea reached the semis'. It doesn't do well to underestimate anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mario114 Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 It's not the final list right?, doesn't it have to be slimmed down even futhure, latter this month? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaggle64 Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 It's not the final list right?, doesn't it have to be slimmed down even futhure, latter this month? Yah, he still has to name his final squad, but it's certainly an intriguing insight. Why not take an additional striker instead of one of those defenders?

Athriller Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 We had a sweepstakes in our form at ye olde sixth form the other day. There were 25 of us, so some of us got 2 teams. Out of the hat, I got Portugal and Germany. I understand how unpredictable this whole affair is, but what chances do you guys reckon that either of these teams have of winning? I get 64 quid if one of them wins. Basically, I want you to tell me that atleast one of them will win so my ego can masturbate go in the corner. But if you must, feel free to be realistic.

Shino Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 You're a lucky lucky man! Portugal never played this good and Germany is the hometeam so I guess there's a high propability that you'll win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monopolyman Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 Meh. You got a pretty good draw there with Portugal, atif. Hell, I've been thinking about putting money on them winning it this time around. That's all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roostophe Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 Serbia and Montenegro wiil make it to the finals, just you wait, we'll show you how much we rule... not. SAVO! SAVO! SAVO! SAVO! Owen Hargreaves? There should only be one person named Owen in the England squad! Sven's taking a big gamble putting Theo Walcott in the squad. Is he really going to risk an inexperienced player? Walcott would be better off waiting until South Africa 2010. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
