The England Thread

If Hodgson picks the team according to the way he's given out the numbers 1 - 11, then it'll be -

 

Hart

Johnson Terry Cahill Cole

Walcott Gerrard Lampard Young

Rooney Carroll

 

It's a fairly predictable first team apart from Gerrard and Lampard in CM.

 

Haven't Chelsea tried Lampard in a holding role for parts of games recently? I'm not sure it'd work, but I'd actually like to see us give it a try against Belgium.

 

That's how I see it. I can see Parker for Rooney in the first 2 games though in a 4-3-3/4-5-1 formation.

Going to be the same old problems this summer, but Roy has the advantage of expectations being lowered so will get a fair amount of time in the job.

 

Everything above getting out of the group is a huge bonus, unless we get a relatively 'smaller' side in the knockouts.

                          Hart

Johnson    Cahill            Terry        Cole

                Parker        Lampard

Walcott              Young                Ox

                          Carroll

Would have to agree, at least when Rooney's out. There are a couple of players not on the plane that I would liked to have seen, but meh.

How likely is it that Lampard will be out for the EURO's now?

 

Nobody knows yet, scan tomorrow.

 

Ok, thought there might have been some rumours already.

 

Hope he can play. Would be a big miss. Especially with the 'alternatives' available.

I don't think Lampard for Henderson costs us much. We're s**** with Lampard , and we'll be s**** with Jordon Henderson..

 

Utter rot.  Lampard is a CL winning quality footballer and Henderson is nowhere near that level.

Even though Lampard's clearly the better better, we might be more balanced with Parker in there with Gerrard and just playing a 4-4-2.

 

Not with the way we plan to play IMO and Lampard has proven this season he can play deep in a counter attacking system and seems to have dealt with getting older a lot better than Gerrard has.

 

Gerrard looks cack everytime i see him play as a CM in the last couple of years and personally dont trust him there if he's going to play ( i dont think he should though) then he has to play AM.

 

But he probably will play CM so we will have to deal with it.
