Football Banter

Crouch has an excellent record for England so given decent form he would certainly be in the frame.

Barry and Parker was a joke against Montenegro . They pick the ball up from the defence and begin some sideways passing or back to the defence. Play it forwards FFS! Parker has played well for both Tottenham and West Ham, has decent Prem' experience but doesn't look so effective for England. Why so defensive ?

Gerrard

Bent / Sturridge/ Welbeck

Although with a 4-4-2, I would drop Parker, push Gerrard back into midfield, and play 2 of the strikers I've listed

I really hope Barry isn't anywhere near the squad, but unfortunately we all know he'll more than likely start

I ilke the liine - up a lot. now does Crapello have enough gut to seize the opportunity and bllod england's next generation in time for 2014?

I don't think the FA see much point in appealing and risk an increase in his suspension. My personal option is to take him but only as cover for any strikers picked in the initial squad, although I accept there are some people who may say that we are better off without him in the team.

Still in shock after seeing the so-called champions of England go to the 6th best team in England and play for a draw..then scurry off happy with a point.

so called ? as far as i know they lifted the crown last year didnt they ? you both played with uno striker so you were both just as negative as each otyher but with you being the home team and apparently still a force in world football surely the onous was on you to take the game to them ?. they have bigger priorities in the game than you lot as for being in shock, you couldnt even beat a 2nd string united team on your own turf even with the cheat with teeth up front but it seem adams as picked up a few tricks from suarez this season i guess its true you do learn from playing with 'better' players. we'll show you how its done next week.

your probably confused as to why i'm defending utd, the reason is i have a lot more respect from them as i do you basically, i detest everything LFC, you live in the past and gets boring after a while. feel free to bring up our wealth as im sure you will.

Haha wasn't meant to be a comeback! Seriously though, I was genuinely surprised that your a City fan - talking about your 'detest' for Liverpool and having more respect for Man Utd, I would have never guessed your a City supporter.

fair enough, i do have family and friends that are split between the two but ive always gone with the blue half of manchester, i guess 'detest' is quite harsh but it's the devine right some of your fans seem to have to be classed has a major force in football iratates me. obviously your had sucess in recent decades and some of your fans live off that and it gets boring. i cant deny uniteds sucess over recent years because they have done it the right way unlike chelsea and dare i say it us, but these days you need money to suceed and thankfully we have loads of it lol.

Charlie Adam's dive was embarrassing to watch
