England's Problem: - No solid goalkeeper (Correct) - James, Green, James, no wait, Green, let's try Foster, no wait Robinson, hold on James, OMG Make your mind up. Well at least Fabio will choose the form keeper for 2010 if we make it there. - Right back an issue - Ok we have Glen Johnson, he looks potential, but he needs to sort out his marking internationally. If he does what he's doing in the qualifiers against someone like Brazil, he will get beaten every time and it'll be horrid times. Gary Neville is also hitting an injury spell, so who's our 2nd right back? Micah Richards, Luke Young? Hmm... - Left midfield - We actually only have decent left winger that's left footed, Stewart Downing. Joe Cole and Steven Gerrard can also play but they will cut in and not natural left winger, and neither are left footed. Suppose Wayne Bridge can also play there but he's a Left Back by trade. - Centre Midfield - Gerrard and Lampard have always had a problem? And now there's Carrick, Barry & Hargreaves (if he comes back). Something has to be done. - Forwards - Who will go up front? Do we play one or two? Personally I'd like to see Rooney as a lone striker but that's just me. anyways I'll be supporting England and Japan and SOUTH Korea...for obv reasons. They're Asian. Hope North and South Korea aren't drawn in the same group, otherwise there will be mass riots on the pitch and stands within the stadium.
England can play like this: -------------------------Robinson---------------------- --Richards-------Terry-------Ferdinand------Cole-- ---Carrick------------Lampard---------------Barry-- ------------------------Gerrard------------------------ ---------------Crouch-----------Rooney--------------
---------------------James/Robinson------------------ -Johnson/Richards---Terry-------Ferdinand------A.Cole-- ---Walcott--------------Carrick---------J.Cole-------- -----------------Lampard-----Gerrard------------------ ------------------------Rooney------------------------- i'd play a tree system to be honest ^^
Micah Richard right back? Hmm, that's happened before in the McClaren era. To be honest I prefer we played that formation, but I doubt Fabio will. Gerrard playing in the hole behind the strikers like he does for Liverpool and Lampard in Centre Mid could work, but the problem surely would be Lampard trying to go forward all the time. To be honest I'd rather see this: ----------------------------Green-------------------------- --Richards-------Terry--------Ferdinand------A.Cole- ---------------Carrick/Barry-----Lampard--------------- --Walcott---------------Gerrard---------Rooney/J.Cole/A.Young ------------ Crouch/Rooney/Owen/Agbonlahor------- TBH I'd prefer Rooney as lone striker, with Ashley Young playing LM, but don't think that will ever happen.
All these talks about other countries. Anyone supporting US? I think they will qualify for the world cup and perform well in it also.
Looks good it is kinda of 433 formation. Today there is a friendly match between Holland vs England. The Netherlands will probably start with following starting eleven: -----------------Stekelenburg-------------------- -Heitinga---Ooijer----Mathijsen--Braafheid-- --------------Mendes----de Jong----------------- -v Persie-----------Sneijder------------Robben- -----------------------Kuijt--------------------------- England experts how will England play tonight?
Holland or The Netherlands ALL THE WAY zowiezo... I mean c'mon if there was no foolish mistake against those rusia players we definitly has won the title of eurocup :( But this year again the Netherlands seems to be good again and also like always accept a certain year... it seems that they can't lose in the qualy rounds...
true but we need to look ad it with a orange sun glasses but their goal keepers aren't half that bad yes it isn't the van der sar level but they are still young
How do you think we could play, especially in our defence? I am thinking about the following players: ---Boulahrouz-----Vlaar------Mathijsen----vanBronckhorst-- They are the best defenders that we have.
hmmm Boulahrouz and van bronckhorst are for sure but the other 2 are still in discussion i mean they are the same lvl as the rest what sits on the bench :(
The problem is in the centre defense. We have some players with great potential like Donk but unfortunetely he is playing in Belgium. It is hard to say who are the most suitable defenders. Now van Marwijk have called up Loovens. He played well against Arsenal. Maybe he is a good option, we will see.
OH i can't wait to see this tournament, so excited. I like Brazil to win, my player to watch is Messi. South Africa is good site for this tournament, so European countries won't have that much advantage over the others.
Cant wait to see it. I hope i would get enough sleep so i would watch all those game. I hate it when we can only watch it like in AM only LOL.
After EURO 2008, I really like the Netherlands. But my fave team is still England! Grew up watching them
