Difficult games coming up against Russia and Israel who can sit back and England will have to go on the attack which they aren't used to doing. I think that they might just do enough to get through as usual.

Of course they will! The call-up of Heskey was a genius decision by SM because he offers us something very different to our other strikers. I don't expect him to start but he could come on and batter down the oppositions defence with his strength.

There are rumours that Steven Gerrard is set to be given an injection to enable him to play. I doubt that Benitez will be too happy with that. <_<

It's looking promising after the 3-0 win over Israel. They played better football and the midfield of Cole, Gerrard, Barry and Wright-Phillips looked more balanced, not that Israel played that well. Tougher game coming up against Russia.

Wow! It's like they are a different team, another 3-0 win. Barry has looked excellent in the centre with Gerrard. Even Rio scored (he should have saved his goal for against Everton though <_< ). What's going to happy when Rooney, Beckham, Lampard, Hargreaves, Neville are fit? :unsure:

Yeah them as well although Lennon and Carrick aren't first choice. Me too, Croatia first I think. Lets see if McClaren has the guts to stick with hte same team.

Croatia are very good, they won 6-0 the other night. Lennon only played a couple of games. Wright-Phillips is better imo. Lennon goes missing too much in games.

i think when both on their day then lennon is better and he was englend first choice right winger since becks was dropped and until he returned so that say something.

Not really, McClaren is manager afterall lol. Lennon played some games on the left wing I think and Gerrard was on the right wing before Beckham came back. :unsure:

Honestly, Lennon played some games on the left wing. You never believe me. :rolleyes:

I would stick with the same team if I was McClaren, make the one's out work hard to get their place back and we all know Gerrard and Lampard doesn't work.

Nothing up with Barry, did you watch the England games? He was one of the best players in both. Playing well in the Prem too. Scholes would have been good but i'm glad he's retired to give him a rest for United.
