The Final England Squad


Ricky

Recommended Posts

Just thought it would be a bit of fun to see if anyone can guess what Fabio will do today.

Here is the 30 man squad in full

England's 30-man provisional squad for the World Cup finals:

Goalkeepers: Joe Hart (Manchester City), David James (Portsmouth), Robert Green (West Ham).

Defenders: Leighton Baines (Everton), Jamie Carragher (Liverpool), Ashley Cole (Chelsea), Michael Dawson (Tottenham), Rio Ferdinand (Manchester United), Glen Johnson (Liverpool), Ledley King (Tottenham), John Terry (Chelsea), Matthew Upson (West Ham), Stephen Warnock (Aston Villa).

Midfielders: Gareth Barry (Manchester City), Michael Carrick (Manchester United), Joe Cole (Chelsea), Steven Gerrard (Liverpool), Tom Huddlestone (Tottenham), Adam Johnson (Manchester City), Frank Lampard (Chelsea), Aaron Lennon (Tottenham), James Milner (Aston Villa), Scott Parker (West Ham), Theo Walcott (Arsenal), Shaun Wright-Phillips (Manchester City).

Forwards: Darren Bent (Sunderland), Peter Crouch (Tottenham), Jermain Defoe (Tottenham), Emile Heskey (Aston Villa), Wayne Rooney (Manchester United).

So who's for the chop then, pick 7 names. 1 point for each one right.

I'm predicting

Warnock

Dawson

Upson

Walcott

Parker

Wright-Phillips

Bent

The only doubt I have over that is Walcott, common sense would say that's he'd leave out Adam Johnson but I just have a feeling Fabio might take a punt on Johnson.

I may be alone here but why the h*ll should Carragher be in the final squad??!! Liverpool fans are blind to see current shape but even is Fabio too? Dawson is much better and shouldn´t be dropped before Carra.

You think that Dawson is a better option in defence than Carragher? :wacko::unsure:

I think Carra is stone walled to go. As mentioned before he can play anywhere accross the back 4 so he's a very useful player in a 23 man squad. Also I personally don't think he would have come out of retirement if Fabio hadn't given him some reassurance that he'd be in the final 23.

Adam Johnson will go, I just have a feeling he'll be the shock addition.

Can't understand all this rubbish on Gary Barry...They're going on about his battle for fitness like he's Pele or someone....if he's unfit, so what..? Just put Ledly King in there to hold the midfield.

Why would Ledley Kind be so good in this role? Has he played there many times? I keep hearing all these so called experts saying this.

Going to the World Cup with a holding midfielder who has never really played the role would be suicide.

Possibly....but what about parker, or anyone else that is there already can do Barry's job....He's Shyte....what a load of jibber jabber over a very average player.

My predictions and not necessarily my personal preference:

Bent

Baines

Warnock

Wright-Philips

Dawson

Parker

Huddlestone

Although he's thick-skinned I think Capello has painted himself into a corner with the public courting of Carragher but his versatility probably means he can drop two of his three specialist left-backs, and a centre-back, in favour of taking Joe Cole. I don't think Parker or Huddlestone have done enough.

Also think he'll take a punt on King and Adam Johnson.
