Agreed, but while Sterling cannot finish for poo poo him and / or Walcott providing wide pace on the break feeding into Vardey could be good.

Hopefully he doesn't have enough time to get fit for the Euros. Wayne Rooney Injury: Medial knee ligament injury Estimated return date: Setback. Late April / Early May. Having been pictured for the first time without his knee brace, speculation suggested Wayne Rooney was ahead of schedule in his recovery from a knee ligament injury. However, Van Gaal was quick to quash rumours of an impending return. ‘He still has weeks to go,’ he said. ‘He is not close. I cannot say how many weeks, as you never know. It is a conservative healing what we are doing with the brace, not an operation or something like that.’ The setback could delay the captain’s reappearance in the first team by up-to a month. http://metro.co.uk/2016/03/15/manch.../#ixzz43BvWFXrH

He should make Joe Hart captain.

Byolante posted:Hart, Stones, Lallana and Sterling all have no business being in that team Maybe i have just not watched enough man city this season but i still rate Hart as the best england goalkeeper at the moment, unless in truly horrific form you don't want to change them and he has more experience of the big stage than the others, IMHO he should stay unless he is God awful in the warm up friendlies

If you look at how Spain won with a majority Barce side and Germany with Bayern, you'd have to think having that midfield intact would've worked wonders. I've often thought this. opus111 posted:euro 96 always felt like the biggest near miss to me. But maybe its cos I was so young. the England team was incredible in that tournament, we would have beaten Germany if Gazza was a yard quicker.

Can we keep 'Roy Hodgson's time at Liverpool' out of this thread please, it's boring and no-one wants you all to perpetuate the stereotype of whining Scousers, least of all in this thread. If we have criticisms of Roy can we keep it to what he's done / doing as England manager.

"I have to repeat Wayne is our captain and he has captained the team extremely well in the past two years. "He took us through a qualifying campaign where we had a complete success with 10 wins out out 10. It doesn't please me too much that it is suggested now that the moment he is injured and doesn't play he gets jettisoned in some way. He doesn't deserve that." "When he comes back and is fit again he is going to be putting enormous pressure on these players, just like these players will be putting enormous pressure on him - and that is the situation we are looking forward to." Whilst I am worried that Rooney will walk straight back into the squad when he is fit, it does feel good that we have genuine competition for places which is going to hopefully result in everyone upping their game. http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/35908204 "Dele's performance against France in November was a man-of-the-match performance as well," said Hodgson. "He was fantastic in that game and if anything it has pleased me even more that he has come out and done exactly the same again, and what is more he has done it in perhaps even more difficult circumstances. "At the moment, all you can see with Dele is a very, very bright future. It is up to him and his club but he has got to make certain he doesn't think 'I am the complete and finished article'. You cannot be the complete and finished article at 19 - not if we are talking about winning tournaments. "You need a little bit more experience and games behind you. I'm not trying to detract from his performance. We thought he was excellent from the first minute to the last. He is getting a lot of praise and I hope he enjoys it because he truly deserves it." The emergence of a crop of exciting young players, and the brand of football they produce, has led to suggestions that Hodgson is altering his approach to the game. The 68-year-old denies that is the case. "No, not at all," said Hodgson. "Unfortunately - and I don't know when I got it - but at some stage I was told I'm conservative in some way and that will stay with me for the rest of my life. "I don't have it in Italy, I don't have it in Switzerland, just in England. I believe that is what is said. It is not true in my opinion and certainly I have never felt that way. "I have worked for one or two teams, of course, where we have been nowhere near as good as the opposition and we have been put onto the back foot. "But whenever I have had the team that has had the ability to take control of the game, take the initiative and take the game to the opposition, all of my teams have done that." He added: "You can't disprove what people say or think about you, you can only do your work and hope the work you do with the players will give some sort of reward or success. "Then people can have their opinions. It has never bothered me at all - I haven't started thinking 'someone said that, I better do something different'. "I think I have been, not quite a model of consistency throughout the 40 years, but there haven't been many ups and downs or twists and turns. "I believe in playing football, I believe in taking the initiative and you can only win things if you have a team who can take the game to the opposition. It is difficult to win things in the long term if you go on the back foot."

If Kane and Vardy keep scoring during these friendlies it's going to be harder and harder for Rooney to walk back into the starting line up. Also he's not actually recovered yet, this is all predicated him actually being fit.

Wayne Rooney has scored 6 goals at international tournaments 5 of those were in Euro 2004. 1 of those was at World Cup 2014 His best performance at a tournament was when he was young, since then he has done precisely gently caress all to warrant him waltzing back into the starting team.

Rooney should prob be in the squad but def not starting. I think it's a little silly not to take one of Defoe or Carol, but we cannot take everyone. Just so long as that loving band gets nowhere near the stadiums I'll be happy.

Good News Everybody!! Midfielder Fabian Delph is unlikely to make England's final 23-man Euro 2016 squad because of a groin strain, coach Roy Hodgson says. The Manchester City player did not travel with the squad to the North East for Friday's friendly against Australia, and has been placed on the standby list. "Delph is not with us," Hodgson said at Thursday's news conference. "He's stayed in Manchester - that means he probably won't be in the 23." http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/36339159

Drinkwater not going is really frustrating, he links up so well with Vardy and has had a phenomenal season... *sigh* oh well. time to update the OP.

Dier, Alli, Drinkwater and Wilshire would have been a loving good midfield, but Roy would have to drop Rooney to play Kane and Vardy.
