ENGLAND'S WORLD CUP SQUAD ANNOUNCED TODAY
StrumSolo > 12/05/2014, 11:20
No need to wait until 2 o'clock though, from what we've heard already it shouldn't be too hard to figure out who's made the cut.
So far we know that;
-Ashley Cole isn't going and has announced his international retirement, on account of the fact that
-Luke Shaw is going, along with his Southampton team-mates Adam Lallana and Rickie Lambert
-Which means Andy Carroll will have to settle for a spot on the standby list
-Along with Jon Flanagan and maybe John Stones
-And Michael Carrick too if he fancies it. His spot in the squad has gone to Ross Barkley.
Armed with those nuggets, we can expect the 23 to look something like this.
Keepers: Hart, Foster, Forster/Ruddy
Defenders: Johnson, Baines, Shaw, Jones, Smalling, Cahill, Jagielka
Midfielders: Gerrard, Henderson, Milner, Barkley, Lallana, Sterling, Wilshere, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Lampard/Cleverly
Forwards: Rooney, Sturridge, Welbeck, Lambert.
Other than Forster/Ruddy and Lampard/Cleverly, nailed on.
Sound about right? -

And here it is.
Phil Jones' head = Too small
Jordan Henderson's head = Too big.
Those issues aside though, decent picks? -

Hmm they seem alright. As Roy Hodgson keeps stating, he wants a youth team more so than experience. There's some pretty good players and some mostly in the "Standby List" who I have no idea who they are. Still, I think they probably won't get further than the quarter finals. -

Uncle Roy's liking for youth is very worrying indeed.
Me thinks is looking towards his next job. As a scout leader. Or maybe Pope. -
