Both the Republic of Ireland and England have a good chance if they field full strength sides but as always the boys to beat with be Brazil/France/Germany.

as much as i hate to say this (im welsh) if england have there full squad out and sven has them playing well together. then imo there aint a team that will trouble them... they have easily the best squad "throughout the team" than the others whome lack in goal/def/mid/str where as england do have a full strength squad throughout. this would be my england world cup winning team :)

Goal D.James

R.B G.Neville
C.B J.Carragher
C.B J.Terry
L.B A.Cole

R.W Beckham
C.M Lampard
C.M Gerrard
L.W Dyer

C.F Rooney
C.F Owen

Subs
j.Cole
Ferdinand
Campbell
Johnston (that c.palace striker)
Defoe
Hargreaves

Nice squad - not sure about including Beckham tho - he'll be outclassed I'm sure by some of the new Spurs talent emerging....still a fine team tho

Asslong as holland beats up germany and germany wont win it it's okay with me..

ps as much as i would like england to see it win for u.. i doubt you will, you guys allways lose on a stupid way like vs portugal?

anyway holland will goto the final / semi final and get wtfpwned by penalty's there..

Hell, if England still had Tony Adams, Paul Ince and David Platt, i don't doubt we'd win too, but remember the last Euro cup, and how well Greece did? One or two players sometimes do not make a team...

ROFLAMO, nice 4 man midfield with 2 right sided players and 2 out'n'out central midfielders. Your team has no balance where it matters most. As for Carragher before Ferdinand or Campbell you must be having a laugh, yes Jamie has had a great Champions League campaign but he does not quite have the quality or concentration levels of those other 2. He is a great backup but I couldn't put him in the top 4 of England central defenders, Campbell/Ferdinand/Terry and Woodgate (when fit) are all more solid and reliable.

lol, somehow I dont think so :/ firstly you havn't got ferdinand or campbell in defence, and they are our two best! secondly, downing, joe cole > dyer and imo defoe is better than owen, so i think their best team would be something like....

Robinson

Neville - Ferdinand - Campbell/Terry (cant decide :() - Cole


Beckham/SW philips - Gerrard/Butt (to perhaps balance the midfield a bit) - Downing/Cole

- Lampard -

Defoe - Rooney

Lol at people saying France.. they won't make it out of the group stage. Their team has been getting weaker and weaker since 98.

England won't be going anywhere either with Sven as manager. Unless of course he realises before 2006 that he's coaching England and not Italy.

I think it'll be the usual suspects in the semis. Brazil, Argentina, Germany (Host team always does well), and Holland.

now, if we had:

Gordon Banks

Viv Anderson - Jack Charlton - Bobby Moore - Stuart Pearce


Paul Gascoigne - Bryan Robson - Paul Ince - John Barnes

Gary Lineker - Jimmy Greaves​

Bench:
Jack Charlton
Ashley Cole
Terry Butcher
Bobby Charlton
Jermain Defoe
Wayne Rooney

all at their prime, then we'd walk it :D

Good call with Bryan Robson, England desperatly need a holding player of his caliber these days. Personally I would switch Beckham for Ince and then move Beckham to right and Gazza into the middle. That would then be England's greatest modern day midfield. That said though Bobby Charlton would get my pick ahead of any of those 4 in an all-time greats team.

Ah football..a 90min game watched by millions who are totally convinced they could do better than the coach themselves.

The guys in work rant on about whatever player should have been picked for the game so I say every time

'well ring them up and tell them!!!'

omg get a clue! Terry and Carraga (sp?) are like the two best defenders atm, also beckham is a pile of wank tbfh, hes lost his touch, Gerrard and Lampard are quality players, and Owen Hargreeves is also quality.

As for upfront i would say Vassel and Rooney, or maybe Defoe.

Erm you get a clue perhaps? I have been to Anfield 4 times this season and have watched over a dozen Liverpool games live on TV, Carragher is a good player and has had an excellent champions league campaign but Liverpool lost 14 yes 14 premier league games this season and Carragher was the stalwart of that defence. Don't get me wrong, he is in the top 5 English central defenders right now but there is no way on God's green earth that he will get in the first 11 ahead of Rio or Sol. They have masses of European and International experience at the very highest level, they are also much more composed on the ball than Jamie and both are much stronger in the air which is a vital asset for a central defender.
