HawK Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Exciting squad, first time since Keegan I'm looking forward to an international tournament now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Really don't understand the calls for Carroll myself, he's been average at best since he left us and in no sort of form. Forrins don't like it up 'em. I doubt Chiellini etc etc will have much of an issue with a bit of rough stuff tbf. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incognito Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Really don't understand the calls for Carroll myself, he's been average at best since he left us and in no sort of form. Lambert on the other hand has consistently scored and created goals over the last two years. Pretty happy with the squad on the whole, considering the likes of Terry, Walcott and Rodriguez were not available its about as good as it could have been. I'd take Carroll irrespective of form, and tbh it hasn't been too bad of late anyhow. It's because he offers us something different. We saw in Euro 12 that despite him having no form to speak of ; he was, to coin a phrase, a massive fret when he played. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrettNUFC Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Lamps is a debatable one. Has more yellow cards than goals this season.

Yorkie Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Aye, I've got no problem with both Lampard and Gerrard going, providing that both of them don't start. I'd start Gerrard, tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillClinton Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 as a neutral, it's just nice to have a mostly likable England squad for once. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Lampard and Milner were must-picks IMO. There is a danger of picking too youthful and inexperienced a squad; particularly now there's no Cole, Ferdinand, Terry or Barry (shit as he was). There's only Gerrard, Lampard, Milner and Rooney who are 'old heads' in this squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think Carroll offering something different is reason enough for him to go like, think it's a bit of an archaic attitude that you wouldn't see from other teams. Lambert is in much better form and his injury record is a lot better too. Glad he's got the chance to go as he really does deserve it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if we need a goal off the bench you'd rather which unpicked midfielder come on instead of Lampard? Course he should be there. The reason he hasn't got as many this season is that arsehole Mourinho playing him as a DM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
