Hypothetical England Squad


Optimistic Nut

Recommended Posts

Let's say a new manager replaced Capello after the World Cup and did what Laurent Blanc will do for his next squad, who'd you select?

 

I'd go for,

 

GKs - Foster, Robinson, Kirkland

RBs - Richards, Onuoha

LBs - Baines, Konchesky

CBs - Jagielka, Lescott, Brown, Ferdinand

RMs - Bentley, Walcott

LMs - Young, Johnson

CMs - Parker, Huddlestone, Wilshere, Rodwell

CFs - Bent, Carroll, Zamora, Agbonlahor

Those teams won't make it in to the top six let alone win a major international cup.

 

The England first team can't make it past the second round, so why would the "B Team" do any better?

 

Just goes to show how shallow the talent pool is - that said the same would be true of all but the top half dozen nations...

Keepers: Camp, Robinson, Kirkland

 

Right back: Richards, Onuoha

Left back: Baines, Gibbs

Centre back: Jagielka, Lescott, Shawcross, Cahill

 

Rights wing: Walcott, Bentley

Left wing: Johnson, Young

Centre mid: Rodwell, Cattermole, Muamba, Wilshire

 

Centre forward: Bent, Zamora, Agbonlahor, Jerome/Davies/Carroll

 

The obvious problem being the lack of quality forwards.
