How do Walcott and Downing

get in the England squad before Lennon. And Cahill before Dawson. And if Frazer Cambell can get in the England squad, why not Livermore or Rose?

And Cleverley has jumped the pecking order despite being injured all season. Rooney not even available for the first two games of the Euros gets picked, Why?

I know England are not going to win the euros, but what is the actually strategy for picking England players, is it players on form? players that have played 1 or 2 games this season only? or just players that happen to have a connection with Man United, Liverpool, Chelsea or Arsenal?

Very strange selection policy.

Even if Walcott were dropped, the obvious choice in his place would be Sturridge; then Nathan Dyer and even AOC. I've not been impressed by Lennon in anyway.

Wum or just deluded?

Sturridge is too selfish to play as a winger, as I'm sure you Chelsea fans can vouch for. Play him but in attack.

Dyer really is no better.

AOC has hardly played on the right has he?

By your logic then Defoe having scored more career goals than RVP is better. Thanks for your admission.

I for one am delighted none of them were selected Tottenham players always get injured playing for England.
I wonder how the Woolwich would cope if Walcott got injured

Don't know where I even hinted at anything like that but you've been saying Defoe, Crouch, Keane, etc are better than RVP for a long time so why should I even bother arguing with you about it

I don't expect the likes of Lennon, Defoe, Livermore to make the England squad but it is criminal that the likes of Downing, Cleverly, Campbell et al get in ahead of them.

It cannot be because of lack of game time because Cleverly and Cambplel have played the sum total of 7 games between them. Downing is only there because he is left footed, to hell with the fact he's cack, he's got a left peg to draft him in. Johnson (City) I like but he also has played little this season.

Lennon has proven himself on the left this season and scored 2 of his three goals when playing left-field.

Defoe must be looking at the squad and thinking CAMPBELL.....FRAZIER.FCUKING.CAMPBELL

Just face it sandy, even though Downing, Cahill, Walcott, Campbell, etc are all cack, they are better than the Spurs players who were omitted


Is that why all these teams they play for having been owned and taken to the cleaners by Spurs this season then.

Downing played in a team that lost 4-0 to Spurs
Cahill played in a team that lost 4-0 to Spurs
Cambell has only played 2 games in 18 months
Walcott

Your normal stupid logic never seem to have any actual substance. Just hot air.
