Only a few months left until Euro 2012 kicks-off and the hopes of a nation rests on the shoulders of another bunch of useless, overpaid nancy’s.
So who to take to the tournament? Here’s my preferred 23 man squad
Goalkeepers:
Joe Hart
Robert Green
John Ruddy
Defenders:
Micah Richards
Kyle Walker
Phil Jones
Ashley Cole
Leighton Baines
Rio Ferdinand
Gary Cahill
Phil Jagielka
Joleen Lescott
Midfielders:
Theo Walcott
Ashley Young
Jack Wilshere (If fit)
Frank Lampard
Steven Gerrard
Scott Parker
Adam Johnson
Strikers:
Wayne Rooney
Jermain Defoe
Danny Welbeck
Alex Oxlaide-Chamberlain
No John Terry for me. His controversial trial and resignation of Capello means that I would prefer him to keep away from the squad. A surprise call up for AOC, assuming Darren Bent is injured. He’s an exciting young talent who can bring something new into the squad if given the chance.
How about your preferred 23-man squad?

Wouldn't you go Gerrard in the hole for the games without Rooney? Especially since one of those games is vs France.

Serial WUManiser - maybe you're right, but would you also exclude AOC, Wellbeck and Sturridge?
They're hardly proven at international level. How many tournaments have they played in, how many competitive games have they had? x

Is U4074 a female poster? Or a resident of one of the 'clubs' of Soho? I am just wondering why U4074 signs off each riposte with an 'X' or does it signify something else?

----------------------------------------------------
Wellbeck has shown consistency with Sunderland and the league leaders. Sturridge has shown his worth with Bolton and Chelsea so they're hardly risks.
The only real gamble is Oxlade-Chamberlaine. It's worth a punt though, especially after his performance against Milan and United.

At least people seem to care and have a good discusion regarding this England team. It could go one of two ways, I just hope whoever takes over has the minirals to drop all the players who haven't done it for England over the last 10 years.

It's an 'x' not an 'X'
I use it because being completely illiterate, it's the only way I know how to sign my name x

LOL UnitedRedMacca, not at all. I am just curious!
Maybe it is a new sign of being down with the kids ≤laugh≥
