P Nev, Heskey. I thought we had seen the last of Heskey, but McClown brought him back. Siiiiiigh.

Stewart Downing
I don't know, I think he'll keep his place given that he's the best left footed who plays on the left wing that England have.

I imagine we may see Heskey again too.

Nah, Downsyndrome is gone I reckon. Left footers on the left are overrated.

Heskey is gone. We have Crouch who is ********ing miles and miles better. (I can't believe how underrated Crouchy is).

lets hope Downing is gone and replaced by A. Young
Neville will most likely be dropped due to age, shame because he is and has been a great servant for his Country
lets hope that we also soon see the last of Alan Smith, Wes Brown, Jermaine Jenas, et al. Time for some fresh blood to brought into the squad.

but Crouch must continue to score against quality opposition to merit selection. I know he has a great scoring record, but how many of those teams are worth a shyte?

Given that he's not a first choice striker his strike rate is fantastic.

agreed and as you know that is not the argument. The argument arises that his strike rate is great against shyte sides but not very good when we need him to score. Perhaps if he was played more he would score more, which is a simple theory that should be explored. The argument that always arises with Crouch is quality of opposition... not that England are a quality side at the moment btw.

He's scored loads in the CL, plus he has fantastic technique. His heading, ironically, is his weakest asset along with his pace, but even they're decent enough.

If you ignore Rooney's brilliant Euro2004 Crouch's strike rate is better and that includes the quality of opposition.

lets not start the club vs country debate

agreed regarding Rooney but he has scored against some very good sides along the way- Argentina, Holland, Russia along with 2 against Croatia and one against Russia
Crouch- Uruguay, Croatia and 2 against Greece...
