Village Idiot Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 No Vieira or Benzema in France's 30 man squad. Wow. That's surprising. Heh, he's had a poor season, but not even the preliminary squad? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ameritoon Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Wow, Nasri to me is even for surprising. Just down to the fact that he's had a pretty good season, much better than Benzema. Both are pretty shocking though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Italy's chances just increased ten-fold now that Toni isn't playing for them. Always fails to deliver in the major tournaments, so so poor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorJ_01 Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 France team looks fairly strong tbh, even without those guys. Get Ribery, Anelka, Malouda, Ben Arfa and Henry firing on all cylinders and they are a strong force going forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 England squad: Goalkeepers Joe Hart, David James, Robert Green Defenders Leighton Baines, Jamie Carragher, Ashley Cole, Michael Dawson, Rio Ferdinand, Glen Johnson, Ledley King, John Terry, Matthew Upson, Stephen Warnock Midfielders Gareth Barry, Michael Carrick, Joe Cole, Steven Gerrard, Tom Huddlestone, Adam Johnson, Frank Lampard, Aaron Lennon, James Milner, Scott Parker, Theo Walcott, Shaun Wright-Phillips Forwards Darren Bent, Peter Crouch, Jermain Defoe, Emile Heskey, Wayne Rooney Who said Parker would and should be in that squad? That's a good squad. I'm pleased he's taking Adam Johnson, Joe Cole and SWP. The ones I'd drop are - Warnock, King, Dawson, Huddlestone, Parker, Walcott and Bent. That's assuming Barry is fit, and able to provide cover at CB. If he's unfit, I'd take Dawson. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segun Oluwaniyi Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Domenech took Ben Arfa over Benzema and Nasri I watch Ben Arfa week in and out for Marseille and Nasri is streets ahead of him. I'm very pleased that they picked Valbuena, though. He's been in great form for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 You could name a pretty strong team from the players being left out. The likes of Diego, Pato, Totti, Ronaldinho, Zanetti, Cambiasso, Young, Milito, Nasri, Benzema, etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milito XXXX José Enrique Nasri Cambiasso Arteta Young Benzema Pato Need another CB, and probably a different goalie (Palop's good but hardly a surprise he's been left out).
