Lmao omg, they were drawn 2 hours ago and then me and you go and
post it at exactly the same time.
I know lmao! :D
If a mod wants to merge them go ahead kthx.
OMG !
WHAT A CRAP TEAM !
I CANT WAIT TILL MACLAREN CHANGES SOMETHING !
ATLEAST HES ENGLISH NOT A STUPID FOREIGN NOOB :@
It's a very good team TurboCharge. Tell us who they could change then? :s
I'm not happy about Defoe being stand-by and Walcott not. Yeah hes meant to be a hot prospect BUT hes scored 4 championship goals and hasnt even played a premiership game yet. Too much of a risk and belongs in the damn standby!
0k then ...Quote:

Stewart downing : um....... , not that particularly good ?
aaron lennox : not experienced enough ?
i am shocked that jermain defoe is on standby :s
and wheres players like darren bent and marlon harewood :P
scott carson is a betta keeper than robert green :rolleyes:
I would have to agree.. but it's from his point of view not ours.Quote:

2. Robert Green is way better than Scott Carson -> check clean sheet records etc. (+ Joe Hart will be comnig up soon - Shrewsbury Town GK and England U19 GK).
3. Harewood isn't even English, Darren Bent has no experience in International football, just 1 match played; we can't mess around at the World Cup!
4. Better strikers than Jermain Defoe for England now.
5. Hargreaves and Green are still some of the bets midfielders in England. :l
Bridge, Hargreaves and Walcott are a joke.
Hargreaves is scared to put in tackles
Bridge no experience this season
Same with walcott :S
Boro whats that forum again?Quote:

Not really, if he was that crap he wouldn't have been picked,Quote:

Who else could take his place huh?
i said before , scott carson :rolleyes:
kirkland would of been 3rd choice if he wasnt injured :rolleyes:
He isn't that much better, maybe this season hes had his performances
but IMO Green is better overall, thats why clubs bid 1 odd million for him last summer. Carson is on loan at Sheff Wed which doesn't say much ATM :p
and It's 3rd choice keeper so the chances of them playing anyway are slim.
any u only say robert green because u support norwich :P lol
I have to say i am happy with the team!Quote:

That Walcott dude hasnt played in the Premiership, nevermind an international game, I think Darren Bent has a bit more experience than him, with him having the most goals to his name for an English player in the Premiership this season.
Hargreaves plays in some German Team? The problem with him is, he wont blend in with the style the men who play in the English divisions. This makes him rubbish Internationally.
It's okay. But from what I've seen of Robert Green this season [a Luton player lobbing him from about 40 yards] I don't think he's good enough.
Robert Green: Very, very talented goalkeeper, should of moved on after Norwhich were relegated. He won't be used.
Owen Hargreaves : What are you gonna rate him on his 10-15 mins performances for England? This is guy is amazing for Bayern. Very good squad player.
Theo Walcott: This guy is immensely talented, i'm chuffed to bits for the guy to see him in the sqaud. It is a gamble by Sven, and I hope it pays off.
Stewart Downing: Again another squad player as Joe Cole will keep him out, good option though, can cross.
Aaron Lennon: Again inexperienced, but has pace and can beat people, good option to come off the bench.
I agree with everything turbocharge sez i absolutly cant wait for sven to leave
thanks for the support :oQuote:

comes to think of it ?
whats the point of the 3rd keeper going ?
lmao :P
I think it's a good squad..Not quite good enough to win the world cup tho.
Then again, if WE DO get both of our keepers injured we need a reserve.Quote:

Stewart Downing is good, yes. If he isn't then why is he in the Middlesbrough 1st team? :rolleyes:
Theo Walcott, i've seen him play in the reserves and he looks wicked, a big step for him to go straight into playing for England but I think Sven can see his talent.
The sides ok I guess but yet again it looks like we'll get to the quarters and go out.
Owen Hargreaves is next to Frank Lampard. I don't support England because they're crap, but Hargreaves is good, better than Andrew Johnson
How can you compare Hargreaves and Johnson? One a defensive mdifielder and the other a striker?
England crap? ....
no..
hardly likey thoughQuote:
