    England World Cup Squad

    Well even though I did not think we had a chance of winning the thing, the squad has in my mind resigned us amongst the also ran's. Welbeck, Rose, Delph, and Cahill are not good enough. 3 keepers with 9 caps between them! No real flare in midfield, who is going to supply Kane and Vardy?

    It is a bit of a conundrum Alf but I would have taken him as insurance as 3rd choice. Look what happened to Scott Carson against Croatia!

    5 out Alfie - which is less than last season so far.

    Every season for a while now I have to use my aging memry skills to know who we have playing and then there's the nicknames given just to confuse things. By the time the season ends I am getting used to the names only to have to start over again.

    We have had some good home grown players who wanted to play for us let go. Instead we get players from here and there - mainly lower leagues who have ability but are not consistent and - if I'm to believe rumours - are darn lazy, i.e. turn up late for training etc

    Piss poor ethics these days

    Unlike other teams we would not underestimate the contribution of all players in a World Cup Final winning team!!
    It is nice to have so many players in the squad though.
