Dawsons been called up. Gerrard captain.
Dear me. What a shame.
I think we should be really worried. Sure, King is an able replacement, been much better than Ferdinand this year. However, I am not comfortable thinking that King might not be able to play games in quick succession and we'd have to resort to Dawson / Upson / Carragher who I really don't think are good enough. If King can't play pace is going to be a real real problem imo. Worrying. Our defence has been poor under Capello anyway.
However, these players are in the squad for a reason so fingers crossed.
Rio is a brilliant player, but it could be a blessing in disguise- he's not been at his best lately. Shame though, seems like a nice guy and he is undoubtedly gutted.
He's just so comfortable on the ball, more so than any of our other CDs.
Is this confirmed now? Latest I heard nothing has been fully confirmed, although he did leave the hospital on crutches:

This was his only chance to lead England to a WC. Not gona happen again so I feel bad for him. I don't think we should start Dawson, not experienced enough.
Carra/King to rotate I think.
Yes it's confirmed, Check SSN :)
Not suprised at all. Happy though i really dont like him:eusa_danc
I think this will be the beginning of the end of his career.
I am glad.
