People seem to be forgetting that you take 23 players to this tournament, so in essence two full teams and a spare.

 

The spare is always a 3rd keeper.

True, but it can be any player of course.

 

I'd imagine he will pick the following;

 

GK; James, Green, Foster

 

DF; Johnson, Brown, Ferdinand, Terry, Upson, Cole, Bridge, Lescott

 

MF; Lampard, Lennon, SWP, Gerrard, Barry, Carrick, Beckham

 

FW; Rooney, Defoe, Crouch, Heskey.

My squad would be- GK, James (no.1), Kirkland, Green, DEF, G Johnson, Terry, Ferdinand, Upson, Lescott, A Cole, Bridge, MID Lennon, Beckham, Carrick, Hargreaves, Barry, Gerrard, Lampard, J Cole, FOR, Rooney, Heskey, Crouch, Walcott, Owen.  Hargreaves to cover RB. Would have jagyielka to replace hargreaves if he has lost it when he returns, but micah r. if he has hit some form. Cover would include downing, wright phillips, a young, c cole, richards, jagielka, milner, agbonglahor(instead of owen if he is in anyway unfit).

James, Green & Foster look like the GK's. So that's 3

The nailed on regardless of form:JT, Rio, Ash, Stevie Gee, Lamps, Barry & Wazza. That's 7

Done nothing wrong: Heskey, Crouch & Defoe. That's 3

Lack of players in their position: Johnson & Bridge. That's 2

 

So I reckon 8 spots are up for grabs/grey area.  I reckon he will take at least 2 of the sprinters in Theo, Gabby, Aaron, A.Young & SWP.

But it never is. Likewise he could pick 23 GK's.

Exactly.  You'd be a tit to not select 3 keepers, as it's perfectly plausible that 2 could get injured.

Might try this on FM.

Whats happened to Wes Brown btw?

 

Im not his biggest fan by any stretch of the imagination, but defensively he pisses on Glen Johnson from a very great height, and has experience playing at RB at the very, very highest level and succeeding at that level.

The amount of injuries we have is scary. No Lampard, Gerrard, Ashley Cole, Beckham, Lennon, Walcott, Ferdinand, Johnson et al.

 

Even more worrying is the article says its Wes Browns chance to shine!

 

Brazil at full strength.

 

Still think we can take them. Wishful thinking maybe.

Don't give a shit about the England National Squad, but I'll watch the youth sides as they actually have some Newcastle players in it. Suppose I'm a bit fickle that I've only really enjoyed watching England when a Toon player has been in the squad.
