Lenny Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 another cap for Dyer out of position then, unless he is pushed right up of course! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElDiablo Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 That front 3 won't work. I'd prefer Crouchy for Rooney then Rooney for Dyer. That's if I gave a shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Monkey Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Dyer hasn't deserved his call-up, and lets face it, if we rely on him for England in the first 11 for proper games, we'll lose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Dyer hasn't deserved his call-up, and lets face it, if we rely on him for England in the first 11 for proper games, we'll lose. Dyer has the ability to change games, I doubt he will be near the first 11 all fit but he certainly isnt a player who would "lose" us games due to his inability. Would much rather have him fit for us than not fit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has Lennon even scored? Regardless a few goals can't disguise the fact Lennon is more of a potent threat than Dyer. Dyer's link up is better, but he can't skin a man for pace like Lennon even though his is fast. Lennon will stay on the wing the whole game and give us a constant outlet, whereas Dyer will drop further looking for it. If we're playing 3 up front I'd prefer someone who'd stay on the wing and commit defenders than another Rooney-type. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest andynufc84 Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Is it only me, but am I the only one who couldn't give a toss about England games? I really hate these friendly matches, England always seem to dish up crap, boring football. I do consider myself a patriotic person but the England football team havn't been any good for years now, and that world cup was frankly an embarassment for this county. You read more in the paper abouth the players wives than the football - it was cringeworthy. I don't think Mclaren is the man either, but who is? No-one wanted the job when whats his name left.

Nate Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Currently, i would rather have Dyer in our team than Lennon. They're both overrated, by their own fans and the media alike, but Lennon more so. Where did you get the team from, duffy? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Spectrum Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 That midfield is shite. All decent players on their own but theres no balance. Carrick and Lampard are pussies, we'll never get the ball off Spain without more spunk in there. 0-2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it was a friendly and against shite opposition when we were cruising, surely that would be the perfect time for him to rip them apart. Im not saying he doesnt do it because I have seen him do it lots of times (I have also seen Dyer dribble past people lots of times) but I'm saying I have also seen him bottle it for whatever reason.

STM Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I'd go for: Robbo Neville Woody Ferdinand Bridge Carrick Gerrard Lennon Barry Dyer Rooney Lampard hasn't deserved the england shirt in quite a while. I feel the mixture in midfield would have a nice balance of biteand flair. If you have Rooney, Dyer, Lennon and Gerrard in the same team all you need is one player to perform, to get the others playing well. I actually like the team first posted but it relies on Lennon and Dyer supporting Rooney as the one way Rooney struggles is when his back is to the goal.
