Pilko

He's currently in filming; he's a guest on Would I Lie To You on BBC1.

Yeah, I reckon Lennon >> SWP at the moment, and I think Green deserves to keep his place for the moment.

Ridgewell > Cahill is a fucking ludicrous argument

These two weeks without games could be blessing, imagine if we had three games and we won the lot, it might scupper any bid entirely.

I agree with the bold, not sure about the underlined though. Ferdinand has looked quite shaky for club and country for a little while now, I reckon Upson has done very well in his absence.

Although Capello always says he picks his squad on form, I reckon the likes of Rooney will always be in there even if they're playing shit, and there'll be some who'll never get in no matter how well they play.

Busquets deserves his place in there imo. I reckon you could do with a fourth striker too.

The bloke waving the notes at Barry was brilliant btw.

I just don't think he's very good. Other options, Micah Richards? I reckon Jagielka might be there instead if he was fit.

Full England squad to face Ukraine and Belarus: Goalkeepers: Paul Robinson (Blackburn), Robert Green (West Ham), David James (Portsmouth) Defenders: Ashley Cole (Chelsea), John Terry (Chelsea), Glen Johnson (Liverpool), Wayne Bridge (Manchester City), Joleon Lescott (Manchester City), Wes Brown (Manchester United), Rio Ferdinand (Manchester United), Matthew Upson (West Ham) Midfielders: James Milner (Aston Villa), Frank Lampard (Chelsea), David Beckham (Los Angeles Galaxy), Steven Gerrard (Liverpool), Gareth Barry (Manchester City), Shaun Wright-Phillips (Manchester City), Michael Carrick (Manchester United), Aaron Lennon (Tottenham) Forwards: Gabriel Agbonlahor (Aston Villa), Emile Heskey (Aston Villa), Peter Crouch (Tottenham), Carlton Cole (West Ham), Wayne Rooney (Manchester United). Wes Brown ffs.

Tevez was fucking shite btw, as was Santa Cruz. Both of them utterly atrocious.

As much as Dunne got all the plaudits for his goal and being an ex Citizen, I thought James Collins was outstanding tonight. He made probably over twenty or thirty crucial blocks and interceptions and dominared aerially. Lots on here said he was average when MON signed him, he's had a good start to his Villa career from what I've seen of him.

There's always the old organizing some 5-a-side pitches and doing some training at soccerdome alternative?

That bloke waving the notes at Barry, priceless. oh, and FATTY DUNNE, unlucky you rich shitbags

Or Hell freezing over.

Ooh, its on ESPN (HD ) isn't it. Cracking post that Enrique, reminded me to go downstairs and watch the fucker.

Which is a bit pointless considering this Saturday we carved out one or two decent-ish chances for him and he failed to hit the target with them. It brings back the whole Owen-type argument again, why bother playing the player who does fuck-all else but take chances when we're not making good chances? We've done that to death though, so we'll not do it again, unless you want me to talk about Martins for a bit. Having said that though, I reckon Lovenkrands was bullied out of the game this Saturday. He'd be more effective in the hole (ie where Nolan played against Ipswich) in front of two physical strikers, two of Carroll, Ranger, Shola and Harewood.

I'm not fucking arsed about watching a dead rubber England match. I'll probably go out and play football or some shiz like that.

11am? That's the time I normally go for a massive poo, seems like I'm going to miss the big news.

We were linked with Annan a while ago, were we not?

Carragher is the weak link in their team, without a doubt

601 soon.

Stanislas is good.
