Hart, Forster, Ben Foster

 

Cahill, Jagielka, Cole, Baines, Walker, Johnson, Dawson, Lescott

 

Lallana, Sterling, Gerrard, Lampard, Wilshere, Barkley, Johnson/Milner, Chamberlain, Henderson

 

Rooney, Sturridge, Lambert

 

I'd try fitting Welbeck and Carroll in their as well maybe at the expense of one of the midfielders and defenders.

Not one mention of Shawcross. Disappointing.

 

Personally I think he's one of the best English defenders in recent years. Definitely better than Lescott/Jones/Smalling anyway.

 

I also don't see a win here so may aswell ditch the elders and give the younger lads a bit of experience in a major tournament, get ready for France '16.

 

Here's my 23:

 

Hart. Forster. Steele.

 

Cole. Baines. Walker. Naughton. Cahill. Jagielka. Shawcross. Shaw.

 

Lallana. Sterling. Wilshere. Barkley. Johnson. Henderson. Ince. Ox.

 

Rooney. Sturridge. Zaha. Carroll

 

The Steele thing may be a bit biased but why not get him in the frame, even if he just trains with the squad and doesn't play?

Bit controversial with a lack of strikers this! But I'd genuinely rather we play Rooney & Sturridge up top (presumably in a 4-4-2/4-2-3-1) and opt for one of our other attacking options as part of the two should one get injured...

 

GK: Hart, Foster, Forster.

CB: Cahill, Jagielka, Lescott, Jones.

RB: Johnson, Walker.

LB: Baines, Shaw.

CM: Gerrard, Wilshere, Henderson, Lampard.

RM: Johnson, Townsend.

LM: Lallana, Sterling.

AM: Barkley, Oxlade-Chamberlain.

ST: Sturridge, Rooney.

 

Other options...

 

Ruddy - might be able to force his way in.

Green, Stockdale, Butland & Steele - no chance.

Richards - rate him very very highly, but clearly far too injury prone.

Cole - lack of first team action should cost him, especially with such fierce competition.

Gibbs - too injury prone

Bertrand - not enough first team action.

Shawcross, Dawson & Caulker - only player they could oust is Jones, but his versatility is too important.

Carrick - good player, average form, poor team, better current options.

Cleverley - not so clever.

Rodwell - disappeared off the face of the earth.

Barry - good at what he does, but think his England career has come to an end.

Young - no thanks.

Milner - good, esp to shore it up late on whilst still offering a threat going forward, but doesn't start enough.

Shelvey, Downing & Lennon - all offer something, but come up short.

Sinclair - another disappearing act.

Morrison - blown it with his attitude, niggling injury antics and willingness to jump ship down a division.

Zaha & Ince - excellent prospects, but this tournament comes too soon imo.

Welbeck - just cannot make my mind up about him.

Defoe & Lambert - natural goalscorers, but can't see them finding a spot.

Bent - nope.

Carroll - too injury prone at the moment, but wouldn't rule it out as a different option.

Rodriguez - has done well, but again just highly doubt it.

Walcott - broken, mahoooooosive blow.

I can't believe I'm the only one who would like.to.see Heaton given a chance. No one would have given burnley a shot at promotion this season and I think if they continue to do well be deserves a spot on merit

 

Hart, forster, foster, ruddy are all far superior keepers to heaton and should all be on the plane to Rio ahead of him.

Cole. Baines....... Shaw.

 

You would take 3 left backs to a world cup?

Giving a player a international world cup spot on the merits of doing well in the championship? Surely if thats the case then Schmeichel could be there because his side are top? Robert Green as his QPR side have conceeded less goals than Burnley?

Didn't even realise I'd put 3 left backs in! In my defence I was stupidly tired

I can't beleive people are putting players like Naughton, Shawcross, Shaw, HEATON and Lescott in there final 23. Unless there are serious injury problems then these players will be no where near the final 23. Some of them won't even be in the provisional 30 pre final squad announcement. I know it was a 'who you' would like to see but serioulsy!!!

For me it would probably be:

 

Hart, Forster, Ruddy

 

Baines, Shaw.

 

Cahill, Jagielka, Jones, Liam Moore (a bit oddball but has been fantastic for Leicester this year, would obviously be 4th choice)

 

Walker, Johnson

Gerard, Henderson, Barkley, Wilshere

 

Johnson, the ox

 

Lallana, Townsend

 

Sturridge, welbeck, rooney, Rodriguez

 

Only 22 there, not sure on who else i'd take
