he's still a player of the top class... buti was hoping his captaincy would be taken away recently, but...
Ballack is past it?? ZOMG!!! Ha ha ha lols!!! ROTFLMAO!!!! ha ha ha.... LOL! LOOOOOOOZZzzZ!!! omfg...LMAO!! I lol'd so hard.... Seriously?
According to this article Beckham will remain in the squad. Pretty pointless especially for a friendly game imo. Some quotes from Capello there too. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/footb...ham-in-squad-even-when-unfit-115875-20819501/
Kamikaze Wiese will be our keeper, so your strikers shouldn't even think of coming too close to our goal or this will happen:
Not really as he wont be working with them until very close to the game anyway and will maybe want to watch the final games at the weekend. I guess he wants players to go into the weekend games hoping to impress.
I think it's a likely possibility that Joe Hart will start for England too. So it will be two keepers with little experience at this level.
wiese is just crazy...we can't believe that manuel neuer of schalke has not been called up to provide competition for adler. Adler is more polished and mature, but they are both the 2 best keepers in germany in terms of talent. We need a "junior" kahn & lehmann competition before the WC.
Yes, all the UEFA World Cup qualifiers are done for this year apart from one Czech Republic v San Marino game. I've only seen Wiese in highlights of his blunders in the Champions League so can't really comment greatly on him.
that sucks , i dont really like or get time for club football uefa cup too hes got great reflexes, but has several times made RIDICULOUS mistakes at the worst times...worse than robinson...and is a bit of an oddball character. Not a good distributor either which is important for us like lehmann was. But I think you will see adler and just see that looks comfortable like he belongs in the jersey for a long time. I like him, but rivalry with neuer will make both better.
It's not far away until it starts again in March/April. I remember Wiese getting alot of hype quite a few years ago and I guess he's still young but it sounds like Low wants to at the least give him a chance. Then he'll probably move onto Neuer and Adler.
Actually Colm you are right it will be announced on Saturday. After leaving it until the weekend I thought he may as well have waited until Sunday night.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/internationals/7729516.stm Don't think Heskey is confirmed as out yet as he could still play at the weekend. Ashley and Joe Cole will probably be replaced in the squad by Ashley Young and Stephen Warnock possibly. Joe Cole wasn't in the last squad obviously but I'm just hoping Ashley Young can get a chance. Or he could just miss out again
I think Young is a terribly impressive player and I'm all in favor of him being included in the squad, but over Joe Cole? That's suicide.
