Dave Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 I don't get why Hodgson has taken the easy route though, given that he's on a hiding to nothing for this tournament anyway. And it's not as though the press are behind him at this point. Should have binned some of the older players and made a go of it with some fresh blood. See how they perform. Move on.

Guest Chubby Jason Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Ah well, I'm not going to obsess about the squad, I'll just enjoy the tournament and hope for the best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Well done Roy. Dreadful squad, looks like is already writing of this tournament. Could it really have been much better given the alternatives? He could have picked a different squad, rather than the same one that keeps failing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Seriously I've never, ever rated Downing but I thought he might be starting to show something after last season and a couple of decent England displays. However this season he has been absolute fucking shite. Not just the statistics either, watch him play. He's a footballing coward who rather than attack a fullback will stop and pass backwards, he has completely disappeared from nearly every game he's played this season which has been far more than he should have been ever allowed to play in. No goals, no assists, no heart and no talent. I can't comprehend how he's been awarded with a place in the squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 And that's why the FA should've hired Harry Redknapp I'm sorry but there's no way Redknapps squad would have been too far off Hodgsons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dinotheprehistoricgeordie Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Can't believe that Sturridge isn't in the squad. I'd have taken Richards and Johnson as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
