mrmojorisin75 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Struggling to see why Carroll is a good move, like. Fair enough over the last month he's hoyed himself about a bit but jesus, he's looked more or less hopeless for 16 months. Not that Crouch is my favourite player, but certainly has a cracking record for England. Suppose Hodgson might be trying to install the players thatll be with him for his tenure, but then again can see Gerrard included when he really doesn't deserve it. i can't see why people can't see it we absolutely will not out-football the teams we're going to play so why try? hodgson should and probably will look to be defensively solid and direct, i'd rather have carroll for that every day of the week Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Craig-NUFC Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 I must be missing something with Micah Richards... I think he's absolute class but no manager seems to make him first choice. Aye, same here. Really don't get it at all. Gary Neville talked about him a few months ago on the mnf on how he gets lapses in concentration and gets caught out a lot so Mancini can't trust him in big games? Maybe they've picked up on that? Honestly don't know but he can't be any worse then Johnson.. This. Plus with Neville in the coaching set up, he would have had some say in the selection. Richards looks good against average opposition because he has the pace and strength to get back, but against a good winger he is likely to be repeatedly caught out positionally, hence Mancini plays Zabaleta. Basically just sounds like no one like Richards because he's thick as shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayson Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 There has to be a better right back choice than Glen Johnson man, has to be. He cant be first choice right back, let alone the only one we take. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Quite frankly, Richards aside ( as he should go instead of Lennon ) and the shit choice of Carson thats about as good as we can pick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Carrick should be in the squad. Agree, he offers us the ability to control possession. I would have Richards as well, massive shame about Wilshere too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Despite not playing much for City, I would have had Adam Johnson in there as well. Bit of a wild card that could be useful to throw on if we're chasing a game. Gerrard being there is a fucking piss take. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken Dancer Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Hart, Ruddy, Stockdale. Richards, Jones, Terry, Cahill, Baines, Cole, Smalling. Walcott, Johnson, Young, Scholes, Lampard, Parker, Lennon, Carrick. Rooney, Crouch, Welbeck, Sturridge, Defoe. Would take Jones as he can play a few positions, Carrick as he can keep possession and an extra striker due to Rooneys ban. Not gonna happen like, probably going to be the same old. Genuinely think we will struggle in our group. France will beat us, we never beat Sweden and Ukraine are a home nation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NufcBano Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 This is the best squad: GK Hart, Forster, Ruddy RB Johnson, Richards CB Terry, Cahill, Lescott, Jones LB Cole CM Parker, Lampard, Barry/Carrick, Milner, Gerrard LW Young, A Johnson RW Walcott, Lennon/Ox-Chamberlain FW Rooney, Carroll, Welbeck, Sturridge Dont care about back up keepers. Terry can Cahill are a genuine partnership, kept a clean sheet v Barca. Lescott or G Johnson can cover for LB, Baines is a waste of a space. Rio isnt good enough, whats with the drama? Cant decide between Barry/Carrick. Whoever Woy prefers, not bothered. If Lennon or Adam Johnson dont get in then if its for Oxlade Chamberlain, I wont complain. Carroll to start first 2 games. Bent isnt fit. Peter Crouch can f*ck off. Holt not good enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Baines has to go for me...... he's probably been the best LB in the league this year and if some thing happens to Cole we would be f*cked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
