I don't know why you'd feel nervy like?

 

I'd go with all four of the English Liverpool front 6, Gerrard, Henderson, Sterling and Sturridge. Probably Rooney and Welbeck in there.

 

100% agree. And I'd like to see Rooney play as a striker and not wander around the pitch ball hunting.

We all know Lallana will be put on the left wing and told to stay there. Thus nullifying his best attribute.

 

You seem like a a good lad but this sounds like a load of crap relayed from something you heard on the bus.

 

:lol:

 

Nah I just don't see him being afforded the freedom he gets at Southampton is all. And I don't go on the bus :lol:

I rate him but just feel he's a bit inexperienced to be in from the start at international level just now. Probably the best of our options given he can play with Gerrard in a title challenging team. Just feel he's comfortable at Liverpool, he knows his role to a tee, familiar faces around him... We'll see. Great turn around for him if he does start the first group stage game. Couldn't have seen that happening when he first signed for Liverpool.

I think there are better options that Henderson, and Sterling doesn't look ready for the step up to an international tournament.

 

Sturridge might get found out as well, but he is a threat so has to be given the chance.

Players will only get found out, or "will not be ready" if they're hoyed into a stupid system and are played out of their comfort zone, which tbh is what I think will end up happening. Sterling is proving that he can play consistently well in the Premiership as is Henderson and Sturridge, no reason at all they shouldn't be ready to, you know, play football.

They do lack fitness and regularly can't perform for 90 minutes, although they do put their matches to bed in the first half. Still I'd be worried with a Liverpool backbone in the heat and humidity of the Brazilian rainforest

Every team will struggle with the heat, it might give us a small advantage to pick more of those players who haven't had the extra cup games, or introduce those who have at a later stage presuming we progress.

So what you're saying is, Pardew & Ashley have given France a big advantage going into this tournament

I think England have been one-paced for too long at international level, both in their personnel and the style of play. Look at how the Germans revived themselves by throwing bairns in and going at teams like they were English :lol:

 

Sterling, Lallana, Barkley, Sturridge, Shaw etc. just throw them in, what have we got to lose?

 

Pardew would be the perfect England manager in many ways, he could spend months convincing everyone the world is against them before picking a team of ageing grafters who lose in the tournament. Again.

 

Throw them in for fucks sakes, there won't be another WC for 4 years.

Think Ronaldo is being overly harsh on AOC. Fair enough Sterling has been in far better consistent form this season but OX has had an injury ruined season to be fair to him and was only other month he was head and shoulders Arsenal's best player against the best side in the world whilst playing CM, a role he may well convert to in time. He's still got a lot of ability in him and will look a far better player if he gets over his injuries otherwise his progress could stagnate like Wilshere's.

CD will be after you for that comment, careers on the line as they might get 'found out' and we've got everything to lose...not sure what, like.

He can fuck off in advance then :lol:

 

Decades of established failure vs. throwing in the best and brightest we have and seeing what happens in a tournament we have no chance of winning anyway. I know where I stand.

                  Hart

Johnson Cahill Jagielka Shaw

 

              Gerrarrd

        Henderson Barkley

    Sterling            Rooney

              Sturridge

 

At this moment that would be my side. With the run up of games left though, form could still shift one or two in or out of that side though.

Not too shabby that. Like the spelling of the skipper's name too.
