I really can't understate how good Carrick has been for us this season, really kept our midfield together and you'd think his game would suit International football
Very surprised Oxlade Chamberlain is going to, especially over Sturridge
richards it seems still has a problem with following instructions, as mancini still plays zabaleta for the big games, so not surprised hes not in the squad.
and johnson has been one of our few plus points this season, fantastically defensively, and our best wide player going forward
id have preferred him not to be in the squad though tbh, he isnt going to get utilised, as will neither of the cms, he just lumps it up from the cbs so expect carroll and wellbeck to start
You look at that squad and it isn't a patch on any of the others released thus far
Not sure who your comparing with punting because Czech, Swedish squads have been announced and Englands is obviously better.
Why is SSN focusing on Ruddy when he is going to be 3rd choice goalie? Especially when Hart will be no 1 for years

The Germans, French, and Dutch (I think) have all announced squads that I think are stronger
And the Sweedish squad, is pretty decent in Midfield + up front
I don't think it should be a surprise that the German squad is better.
Don't think theres much difference between French, Dutch and English squads personally.
Portugal have announced a decent one too, good XI anyway but perhaps lacking depth
Gerrard given captaincy.
No surprise for me really.
i am, they didnt really have the best relationship when hodge was managing us
Some weird choice for england squad. Downing offers like nothing to me just seems like players have been picked on reputation. Especially Defoe and downing they've done nothing all year!!
AOC although a good player doesn't start for arsenal very often so why is he in England's squad? Johnson, Lennon, Sturridge surely currently better options?
But there you go
Told you Ruddy was good enough for england lol
None of you agreed..
Bet the bigger teams are bricking it lol
Cant wait to see downing and carroll in the first game lololol
You ain gonna qualify from the group
Hart
Johnson Cahill Terry Cole
Parker Lampard
Walcott Gerrard Young
Welbeck
Something like that not exactly bad fan it's just the squad overall
He's good enough to be England's 3rd choice Fan, going to be nowhere near dislodging Hart.
I don't agree with the choice of Downing but he isn't as bad as people are making out. Would be surprised if he started as well.
Its still a very good XI. On their day could easily beat most sides in the world.
Yeah hart no1 by a long way but good to see ruddy in there
And Jones wahey
Kenny out at Liverpool as well.
i think its a brave decision by the owners in all honesty
dont you dare go after bobby
i do think that may be who we go for, i like him as a manager, but hes going to need time to shape the squad how he wants, and alot of fans may see this as another hodge type appointment and not give him time
Hart
Johnson Cahill Terry Cole
Parker Lampard
Walcott Gerrard Young
Welbeck
--------------------------------------
But isnt the point that the likes of Sturridge, Richards and Carrick could all be considered to improve the above?
Its a brave decision, who could they get to replace him? Not sure who would go there + be sutible
Rafa anyone?

this may offend you but i think bobby might still turn you down... i think he might turn you down because of the short time fans might give him which if he is sacked could put him back down the leagues...
If Martinez is offered the Liverpool job he should take it.
Wigan if he turns it down for that reason (fear/lack of trust in his ability) then he doesn't deserve the job. Liverpool are a big club and if you're afraid of failure then you're not going to make it there anyway.
as punt pointed out, alot of fans do want rafa back, and if a new manager does have a poor start, they will be chanting his name in the stands, and we could have a similar situation to kennys appointment
