Tooj Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 I'd play a right-back at right-back personally. I can't say there are many English RBs who I can think of that should be in ahead of Walker/Johnson... sadly. Richards ahead of Walker when he's fit.

I'd do this.. if he actually gets played for City. Just remembered that Martin Kelly was in our EURO2012 squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Is Richards knackered? Haven't seen him for ages. Reckon my preferred England (all fit) team would be: Hart Richards Smalling Cahill Cole/Baines* Wilshere Carrick Chamberlain Rooney Young Welbeck *dependent on attacking threat of opponent It's not that good but it should qualify at least. The paucity of quality players in numerous positions is startling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Is Richards knackered? Haven't seen him for ages. He's due to return in a couple of weeks. Think he's had a knee ligament injury. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 G.Johnson is much better than Walker. Under-rated by fans at large imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
morla84 Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Hart, Walker, Smalling, Lescott, Baines, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Lampard, Cleverley, Young, Rooney, Defoe. Dreadful that like, looks more like it should be our B-team. There doesn't even seem like any form of optimism developing from anyone coming through Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Would it be fair to say that Glen Johnson's best form was when he played right wing? I remember that being when he was shit hot at Portsmouth and then getting the move to Liverpool, who then played him at right back. That's how I remember it anyway.

Guest firetotheworks Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 What's more important for you: England or Newcastle? Put it this way. I'd rather Newcastle won the League Cup, than England won the World Cup. It's probably even more extreme than that as well, tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TenkoDaLuz Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 f*** you guys are even worse than portuguese fans! :mike: Here there's always the idea that the national team serves the interest of the most influent teams/business man, in order to promote the players they want to make business with.

Spider Jerusalem Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 I'm always behind England and it does piss me off when I see them inevitably get cheated out of a competition or fail to turn up like they did last year. However if it came down to a choice of seeing England win the World Cup or Newcastle winning the League Cup in my lifetime it would be the League Cup for me.

Tiresias Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 The England squad tends to be a club for media darling players, if a player isn't from london or from man united or city then they have to be exceptional to force their way into the team at all (see Baines).

Guest firetotheworks Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 There's definitely a lack of belonging or pride with England. I haven't felt it at all probably since 2004. Even then it was just at the Euros. Probably 1999 onwards I've barely been arsed about England at all. Most of the squad are arse holes. I'm not going back them for being English arse holes. They're arse holes! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
