We better pray Cahill and Jagielka do not get injured because if they do it's going to be a long hard World Cup.

I might be mistaken but I'm sure Roy was at the Everton vs Man United game at Goodison when Jones and Smalling played centre back together? That one game should have told him all he needed to know about these two!

HT, decent performance so far

Is rooney not passing to ross on purpose? Worried bout his place? It happened with van persie

The main problem as you identified it that you have to shoehorn Gerrard into the side regardless of formation

i wouldn't ha. i would be struggling to put him in the squad after the season he's had, because only one of him and lampard should be there and lampard would be the more fresher and has always been the better player with more to offer. i wouldn't pick a player for a WC squad purely because he can take a good set piece - especially not with italy in the group.

playing 5 at the back allows you to go with an exciting middle three of barkley, carrick and lallana of which you could possibly play oxlade-chamberlain behind sturridge or rooney. but that would go against england's famous 4-4-2.

I literally just saw him pass to Barkley mate.

Hate it when we look for anything like this.

 

[ste d' indica]

Haha! Gerrards just melted, the melt!

I have noticed the two passes Rooney did give Ross were poor passes

Did Barkley not pass to Milner because he hates him?

bit harsh, we all know they did very well to keep us down to 2-0 in that game

Shaw has passed to Valencia a few times. They must get along fine.

did city not give yaya a birthday cake because they're not very nice?

 

[davek]

England.

How does anyone summon up the enthusiasm to support that dog's breakfast of mediocre talent?

 

[rascal]

Eurhh that vauxhall advert

 

[Blue Cheese]

Wilshire spending more time on the deck than a first mate, Milner is no right back and Smalling is bloody atrocious other than that not too shabby, well pretty shabby actually must do better.
