The England team sans Rooney, sans Owen, but not sans hope; it lives and breathes!

----------------------------Robinson------------------------

----Neville-------Ferdinand--------Terry------Cole-------

--------------------------Carrick or King-------------------

-----------Beckham------Lampard------Gerrard----------

----Lennon---------------------------------------Cole------

-----------------------------Defoe---------------------------

Holy shit! We'd win the damn thing with a team like that!

Go England!

Go Spurs!

Go Barca!

Well how do you expect to lose when there are 12 men on the pitch??

4-7-1 lol...

Oh, dear. That's a bit silly of me, isn't it?

Here's my 11-man version:

----------------------------Robinson------------------------

----Neville-------Ferdinand--------Terry------Cole-------

-----------Beckham------Lampard------Gerrard----------

----Lennon---------------------------------------Cole------

-----------------------------Defoe---------------------------

There. That's a bit fairer.

I think the team will be...

----------------------------Robinson------------------------

----Neville-------Ferdinand--------Terry------A. Cole-------

---Beckham---- Lampard---- Gerrard----J. Cole------

---------------------Defoe----------Owen--------------

And I would change J. Cole with Carrick to support the defence when going against the better teams..

Also I would bring Crouch on for Owen if things are not going well to add something different up front. I wouldn't take Rooney unless he is fit from the start.

but you'd get all the twats (media) saying Rooney is the best player ever and Sven is a fool not to take him even though he has a mangled foot, and England have no hope without him.

Rooney is a very good player.. no doubt about it.. but is a 50% fit Rooney better than a 100% fit Defoe.. or a 100% fit Bent.. I think not.

Lennon should go to the World Cup, amazing young talent.

Agreed.. IMO he should have got the PFA young player of the year award.

I feel bad for Rooney and England because he could miss out on the World Cup. 🙁

😆 James Beattie thinks he will get a call up 😂

sorry but this made me laugh.

Sven'll take Rooney even if he has to have his leg amputated.

James Beattie is a good striker, and i would take him ahead of Crouch anyway, but if Owen and Rooney cant go then **** yea he should.

He is an all right striker IMO.. he will never get called up ahead of Defoe/Crouch or even Darren Bent..

should do though... Beatties in some small amount of form, Defoe isnt... Crouch is rubbish and Bent is overrated imo.

IMO Beattie just isn't good enough to play in the World Cup.

imo you're wrong.

IMO I am not. He doesn't have the pace of Defoe.. He doesn't have the physical presence of Crouch and he isn't as good a finisher as Bent..

he's better in the air than Crouch, crouch has no presence, he's a gangly sideshow attraction.... Defoe is supremely off form (im a spurs fan) and doesnt deserve a spot on the plane... and Bent, well, i dont like Bent much.

Beattie is incredible in the air and decent on the ground, he's a much better option for changing it up from the bench than Crouch.

Crouch IS going to the world cup.. for certain IMO.. and I just don't think England need to take someone like Beattie who plays in a similar way.. I agree though that Beattie is better in the air than Crouch.. I have only ever seen Crouch score 1 goal using his head.. (against Man Utd 😠 in the FA cup)

Defoe has tons of pace which is why I think he will go. Bent will go IMO if Rooney isn't fit because he is in form.. which you must agree on even if you don't like him..
