England Squad to face Holland Announced

by Laurencio Thu Feb 23, 2012 11:00 pm

Goalkeepers: Scott Carson (Bursaspor), Joe Hart (Manchester City), Robert Green (West Ham United).

Defenders: Gary Cahill (Chelsea), Ashley Cole (Chelsea), Leighton Baines (Everton), Glen Johnson (Liverpool), Phil Jones (Manchester United), Micah Richards (Manchester City), Chris Smalling (Manchester United), Kyle Walker (Tottenham Hotspur).

Midfielders: Gareth Barry (Manchester City), Tom Cleverley (Manchester United), Stewart Downing (Liverpool), Adam Johnson (Manchester City), Steven Gerrard (Liverpool), James Milner (Manchester City), Scott Parker (Tottenham Hotspur), Ashley Young (Manchester United), Theo Walcott (Arsenal).

Forwards: Darren Bent (Aston Villa), Fraizer Campbell (Sunderland), Daniel Sturridge (Chelsea), Wayne Rooney (Manchester United), Danny Welbeck (Manchester United).

Discuss at will Coffee

Cleverley, Johnson, Gerrard and Campbell surprised me. Oh and the glaring omission of the Ox is a bit strange.

Has Tom Cleverly featured for United much this season? Whenever I catch a game I rarely see him.

And obviously Campbell and Downing should probably not be there, and personally I would of phased out Gerrard as well.

Just noticed Scot Carson too. Wondered what happened to him. Laughing

Good on him for trying his luck abroad.

Nope, he's been injured until very recently. Just got back against Ajax, so how he made the cut is beyond me. Downing's England record is pretty solid, but with that in mind there is a certain lanky striker that is missing as well.

That's a very inexperienced central defence. That's probably a good sign.

Cleverley has been injured Che, otherwise he would play. Bit surprised to see him called up to England when he's still not got to fitness with Man Utd.

Good to see Micah Richards being picked finally....

No Lampard? Cry

...can't say I agree with with his omission from England or Chelsea's XI.

Meh it's a meaningless friendly. Might as well test the waters. Also, Lampard holds the record for the most shots without scoring, so not the biggest loss in the world England Squad to face Holland Announced 3925848005

Cahill's shite.

Downing's beginning to play not bad.

Campbell's shite.

Andy Carroll should be there, been outstanding lately.

Defoe > Campbell

If we're testing for the Euros, then why is Rooney in the squad? Should not play against Holland so we can see how we'll play in the first two games of the groups.

Any idea on who'll be captain for the friendly?

I'm actually disappointed Gerrard has been called up but no Carrick. Neutral

Frazier Campbell is a bit random, he's looked decent recently though.

WTF... Downing is in there but no Oxlade-Chamberlain? Laughing

He picks a young squad but leaves out the most promising youngster of all. Laughing

If that's in reference to Campbell, then my word you really must be trolling or amazingly stupid. Campbell has scored more than once since coming back from injury, and Carroll hasn't been called up so that is the worst timing for a troll meme.

I remember yesterday Sky sources said he'd pick an experienced squad. Laughing

To be fair to Pearce he has worked with these youngsters for a few years as u21 boss, so he knows them and they know him. May work in his favor.

Bit harsh considering he's had a serious knee injury for most of them 2 seasons...

He's looked good since coming back but isnt England standard.

Ox is still young and yes he's good, but I've seen like one extremely outstanding appearance from him at Arsenal, I don't think he should be making international appearances just yet, he's not there yet. However he has a fuck load of potential and AFTER the Euros I wouldn't be surprised to see him making appearances.

Everyone ridings Oxs cock is pissing me off if you haven't guessed -_-
