I like it EE. Against Peru that should be fine.

In the tournament I would be wary of teams targeting Johnson - which they are bound to - so would slip Milner in as cover.

If Rooney is anything like his usual average best, swap him for Barkely.

Big problem we have is the "Hodge". A bit like HamsterCheeks at West Ham. He will always f.uck something up.

Looks more like it, but be surprised if he left out Ox.

Why didn't he take Adam Johnson? Only real naturally left sided player we have and had a great end to the season.

We do have a few options, so Milner in if we're playing a better team, Ox and Wilshere can come in off the bench.

On Hodge, I quite like him, he's not the most interesting of blokes, but he won't do any worse than those who've come before.

Well the main sticking-point is Wiltshire. universal useless. No speed,no tackle,falls over,fouls,passes to opposition,zero workrate,can't beat a player.

But the Hodge rates him. Expect him to feature and expect Gerrard to do all his work, before tiring and being replaced by Lampard.

Game of opinions mate, I think he's one of our best players.

Watching the Hodge being interviewed on the wembley pitch. His tortoise-like jowls, flapping over his shirt collar as he mangles the queens diction.

If SG takes a free kick I just hope that someone in the crowd tells him what to do

And a guy with a Mars bar goes in goal for penalties.[/quote]

I was wondering if I was on my own
