Deuce

Very classy that. Much better than their current get-up.

Yessir, you've got it.

Cabaye will start, HBA makes the squad but off the bench.

Made of 100% Chinese silk and the tears of Tibetan children. The Sheikh wants only the best for his lads.

Terry is in better form than Ferdinand. Case closed, Rio. Maybe you should have stolen Ledley King's bionic leg.

Luckily the biggest competition so far is Georgia. They have exactly one stadium larger than 30K. Turkey will probably jump in again if they haven't already, but I'm not too sure how keen UEFA is on giving them a tourney right now.

With Walker and Richards presumably to be left at home, would anyone else be surprised if Simpson gets a call?

JT, come on down...

TBH, Cabaye does seem a bit of a prick. Love him to death. Sexy bitch that.

Because that's not at all ambiguous.

Imagine traveling to an away in Georgia or Latvia or something.

-----------------------Krul------------------------ Debuchy----S. Taylor----Coloccini-----Santon -----------------------Tiote----------------------- ---------Cabaye-----------------Gutierrez------ Ben Arfa------------Cisse------------A. Johnson Simpson and Guthrie good as gone. Won't be surprised if Ba jumps ship as well. Adam Johnson is likely on his way out of City in the summer. Would be a better natural fit at LW than Ba. Third signing is Douglas, comes off the bench and starts for Taylor every odd match or so.

A few serious squads in that lot. Atletico, Sporting, Lyon, Napoli (though they'll probably lose their Trifecta this season), Leverkusen.

Where did you hear this? Fergie can f*** off. My mate who's a Man Utd fan - has some good contacts. He thinks Scholes will end up going should Hodgson tell him what he wants to hear and although it isn't what he wants, Fergie accepts he'll probably want to go too knowing it's his last chance for England. Ah right, fair enough. I can't imagine his demands will be too great really. Surely just "play me in the middle, not on the left". Considering their lack of finesse from anyone else in the middle, Hodgson would be dumb not to play him there.

Not very creative with the single stripe across the chest, but a smart-looking kit. Toon would look good in something similar as an away. Pretty much the same as this seasons away kit for them isnt it? Nah they had the blue away this season. http://76.my/Malaysia/[email protected]

He hasn't played internationally since '04. If England were projected to fare pretty well, I could see him coming out for one last hurrah. But I don't think he'll come out for a squad not projected to get much past the quarters with or without him.

Aye, doubt Scholes goes at all. Best bet might be to shut down the middle with Carrick and Parker and attack up the lanes. One thing they've got in spades is speed on the outside.

Well done sah.

Rio in the new ManU kit. Looks better all together, imo. http://twitpic.com/9ju724 I can't embed worth a shit, if someone wants to do that.

Sadly, he's still England's best option, even at 37.

Carrick... The poor man's, nay, the homeless man's Yaya.

Owen is a default 30 game injury handicap for ManU every year. Pun maybe intended.

All about depth. Bolton doesn't have it.
