Zammo Just seen it. No Downing or Defoe. Only 4 strikers. The Ox is in. Adam Johnson included.


Fingers crossed.


Now I've just read Defoe is in. Bl**dy Twitter.


As long as you don't now say Downing is in, I'm still happy.

Hoop Blah One of my criticisms of Dalglish would be that Downing has hardly played on the left, he's usually be put on the right which stops him doing what he does best.

He's not had a good season no, but doubt there's been too many instances of him on the left and Carroll upfront. His poor assist record is more to do with Liverpools failure in front of goal than Downings ability to put the ball in the right areas from the left.

I wouldn't see him as a starter, but as an option off the bench I could understand the logic.


True, and he is just about the only natural left sided winger we have.

Just don't understand the mentality of only taking 4 strikers. :x

It's all rumours, I think The OX would be a great super sub, would hate to Downing, Milner, Holt or Ruddy tbh. I think Caroll could cause a lot of problems, would also like to see Johnson on the bench out there.

Walcott's in. At least we have two wingers in Ox and Walcott who will frighten defenders.

shocking defence tho .

BBC Scott Lyon on Twitter: "Why is no one talking about taking Jermaine Defoe? Only England striker that has delivered in a big tournament."


Erm.......is he talking about that goal that came off his shoulder ?

Ruddy, just isn't International class, and well Milner, doesn't offer much tbh, much prefer Johnson or Lennon to get a spot ahead of him.
