Come anticipate Roy Hodgson's three months in charge og England with me.

terry is a retard

he probably looks like that when he runs out of jelly beans

the condition of a gilded age epl superstar is pretty much constant fulfillment blighted by occasionally disturbing interludes

I'll take what i can get. His failure to win the Champions League eats away at him i can assure you

so jermaine pennant gets a three year driving ban and has to trade in his 911 for a chauffeur driven maybach with a fridge full of krug so he doesn't have to spend a single moment of the offseason sober

oh man

rio stays home, ebjt to ukr

unless they're both going to be left out of the squad. seems unlikely obv.

welp.

guardian says micah richards is out too? what's the logic behind putting phil 'not actually a right back' jones and glen 'glen johnson' johnson ahead of him?

wait what is there a squad?

i'd assume, tbph, that k walker is ahead of either johnson or richards, and prolly jones too at rb?

ah shit, walker injured

johnson for me, the best attacking fullback out of the lot of them

johnson has been the first-choice. don't see that changing.

well if Phil Jones is his only competition...

Harsh on Rio though

ferguson assured the public that rio wouldn't be fit enough

johnson ahead of richards sounds about right besides

but it's Jones ahead of Richards really

johnson ahead of richards sounds mental to me too, i suspect i rate richards higher than anyone else on the planet does and i've no idea why.

should just play Neville tbh

you liked the video of him and some other dude roasting someone in a mcdonalds toilet?

that is unfortunate

richards is the more complete player but he's not getting enough games at citeh- i'd rate him potentially better than any other young english talent tbh

oh it was a hotel toilet apparently, apologies micah

the ho did not tell the identity of the other dude

well u c i have good reasons for supporting micah.

idk, who cares which b+ player plays in which position, it's all about the race war from now on

it's part of the long-term plan to follow the dutch model

which other racists are there to pick besides terry?

are we going to speculate?

sure, it'd be fun if j** h*** sued ilx.

I'm sure Pearce has many lively discussions about race with his 8NP activist brother.

Goalkeepers Hart, Green, Ruddy

Defenders Baines, Cahill, Cole, Johnson, Lescott, Terry, Jones

Midfielders Barry, Downing, Gerrard, Lampard, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Parker, Walcott, Young, Milner

Strikers Carroll, Defoe, Rooney, Welbeck

when you see it written down like that...

Standby: Butland, Jagielka, Henderson, Johnson, Sturridge

so, who's Butland?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Butland

weak at cb, rb, cm, rm, lm, and upfront

Is that Adam Johnson on stand by?

Or Andy Johnson!! lol

That midfield! Jeezus.

lennon doesn't make the standbys, lol

I mean an entire midfield with at best 2 players who've had decent half seasons (Parker and Barry) And Barry is still forlornly chasing Ozil in my mind.

On the other hand Roy's done a good job of dampening down expectation there. Getting out of the group would be a Mourinho level of achievement.

England shouldn't be boring. Not a great start.

Midfielders: Bastian Schweinsteiger (Bayern München), Toni Kroos (Bayern München), Thomas Müller (Bayern München), André Schürrle (Bayer Leverkusen), Lars Bender (Bayer Leverkusen), Sami Khedira (Real Madrid), Mesut Özil (Real Madrid), Marco Reus (Borussia Mönchengladbach), Sven Bender (Borussia Dortmund), Ilkay Gündogan (Bourssia Dortmund), Mario Götze (Borussia Dortmund), Julian Draxler (Schalke 04), Lukas Podolski (1. FC Köln)

the two must meet

tbf any selection is deckchairs on the titanic stuff, a cm of cleverley and guthrie with thudd as registra is gonna get biffed off just the same

yeah deffo. It was more like, as number none put it, when you see the squad written down you see what meager pickings Eng have.

Vindication for Dalglish tho, we really have signed the cream of English talent over the last 18 months. Hendersen on stand-by to make it a clean sweep.

yeah but picking form players from outside top four would at least be an acknowledgement of a willingness to try to fuckin change it

Carrick really should have made it. I've thrown a lot of bile the guy's way over the years but i honestly think this has been the best season he's had for Utd
