rodders0223 Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Quote Defenders: Gary Cahill (Chelsea), Chris Smalling (Manchester United), John Stones (Everton), Kyle Walker (Tottenham Hotspur), Ryan Bertrand (Southampton), Danny Rose (Tottenham Hotspur), Nathaniel Clyne (Liverpool).

dAVe80 Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 (edited) I think we have a the makings of a decent starting XI, but the squad on a whole is quite poor. I think the keeper (Hart), centre backs (Cahill and Smalling), and Rooney and Vardy are nailed on starters. The rest of the side is up for debate. I'd expect us to line up against Russia as (in brackets, my selection): Hart Clyne Cahill Smalling Rose Henderson (Dire) Wilshere (Drinkwater) Alli Rooney (Vardy) Stirling (Barkley) Kane Edited May 16, 2016 by dAVe80 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted May 16, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted May 16, 2016 I really dislike Woy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Wilshere, rashford, delph and sterling.... What a piss take Noble should be in. No other cbs that could added really. Attacking wise I like it. Hopefully RH lets them attack (he won't) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 That's the worst England back-line in decades. England are going to get absolutely mauled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Is this Hodgson's last tournament? Should've gone 2 years ago in truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KHV Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Allbrighton and Noble should have been in there for me. We really are short of decent cenre backs in this country. Stones, Smalling and Cahill simply is not good enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 The thing is, I can honestly say if Gabby got the call up for the squad he would be gutted. He would have to come up with some excuse as to why he cannot attend. He isn't interested, it would just be a hassle to him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanBalaban Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Much as I detest West Ham, I'm not sure what Noble, Cresswell and Antonio could have done not to be in consideration for the squad. Albrighton and Drinkwater too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czechlad Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 That does not look like a very strong squad. Midfield is going to get overrun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess rooney will start no matter what (which sucks) so probably just go diamond with vardy up top. Kane and vardy seem intelligent enough and got the legs to play diamond and split/get wide for lack of width. Fb's just look equal who ever you play. All are better than creswell so i dont see how its a criticism he didnt get called up? Cant take 5 fb's +1 to taking some other shitty cb instead of a midfielder especially when you got rooney. Did i just read a criticism of a midfielder not being able to head the ball? what Edited May 16, 2016 by gharperr 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
