Guest kingdawson Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Just posted this on GG. Want to get another perspective on it... So say the Euros started tomorrow, what would be your 23 man squad and what would be your first 11 for the first game of the tournament (Don't include Rooney). GK Hart Foster Green RB Richards Lb A.Cole Baines CB Terry Jones Ferdinand Cahill Left wingers A.Young Downing Right Wingers Walcott Lennon Centre Midfielders Wilshire Gerrard Parker Cleverly Strikers Rooney Bent Carroll Welbeck Ok having seen that there is no way i would not take Sturridge. Hmmmmm FFS this is rather hard. I think we're going to go with a 4-5-1 so is it smart taking only 4 cm's? who can i drop from that team to put Sturridge in? hmmmmm i was going to drop Downing as Sturridge can play AML but that's not a smart move being that Downing offers something different should we need it. Well i'd def take Sturridge but can't think of who to drop. I think it's time for the Kids to have a go now. If it doesn't work out then fine but at least they get experience and we're not let down by the same players again. Cleverley imo is very good so he's my wild card. I only picked 1 rb because Jones is more than comfortable there. Harsh on Walker but Richards right now is a more complete player. Lennon probably shouldnt get in at this current time but again if Walcott is injured we don't have anyone that could play his position (well Young can but he's more comfortable AML). Team for first game... --------------------------------------------------------Hart---------------------------------------------------------------- Richards---------------------------Jones-----------------------------Terry-----------------------------------------Cole ----------------------------------------------Parker-----------Wilshire--------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------Gerrard------------------------------------------------------------- -------Walcott---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Young----- ----------------------------------------------------------Bent----------------------------------------------------------------- Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Would take Sammy as a wildcard. Oxade-Chamberlain for me. Although I think he'll make the squad anyways. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Even though I like the look of Jones, he's still too raw defensively to be starting at centre back for England. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I would take Sturridge over Welbeck. Ditto. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JH Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I wouldn't be starting Walcott or Parker like, especially if Gerrard/Wilshere are fit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kingdawson Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I wouldn't be starting Walcott or Parker like, especially if Gerrard/Wilshere are fit. Well no, you wouldn't be starting them as nether are in your prefered squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 No matter what formation we adopt, what eleven we pick, or how well we play, we'll get through the group stage only to be knocked out by a better team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I wouldn't be starting Walcott or Parker like, especially if Gerrard/Wilshere are fit. We look a lot more fluid and dangerous when Walcott plays on the right though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I would take Sturridge over Welbeck. Ditto. They should both be there. Our CM options are pathetic. The fact that we're an injury to Wilshere away from playing Parker and Barry speaks volumes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that we're an injury to Wilshere away from playing Parker and Barry speaks volumes. Yup. It's a shame Rodwell hasn't kicked on from the early hype surrounding him. Mceachran's supposed to be highly rated, but he won't get games at Chelsea. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 When does Rooney find out how long his ban will be? If it's three games, I'm not sure you can justify taking him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David28 Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 When does Rooney find out how long his ban will be? If it's three games, I'm not sure you can justify taking him. Of course you can. He'll only be banned for the first two matches (if it's a 3 match ban) and ready for the deciding 3rd match of the group stages. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
