Nothing personal, I just don’t think he should be the captain (as I’ve said many times before), and I think he’s losing it as a commanding center back.

how can you still have beckahm in there?

And richards instead of Terry??
You must really have some personal vendetta against the England CAPTAIN.

england needs speed in their team. plain and simple, beckham and heskey ain’t going to cut it anymore for them to compete. all the great teams have speed all around the field.

abgonlahor—rooney
young—barry—gerrard—bentley
cole—terry—ferdinand—richards

Well.. as long as we are just speculating.. I think England should learn to keep the ball a lot more and attack.. I dont think this has been tried before.. but its worth a shot..
James

Warnock Ferdinand Terry Cole

Bentley Gerrard Barry Lampard Cole

Rooney/Agbonlahor
Bench
Heskey, Defoe, Noble, Young(Ashley), Woodgate, Downing, Hart

The pace of Bentley and Cole can be used to complement Agbonlahor’s own pace with Gerrard, Lampard and Barry together minding the middle and throwing in attacks and getting those long range volley shots
