My Prediction of England’s Final 23

Based on what I saw from England’s last two friendly matches. This is my prediction of 23 players that will join England team in South Africa:

taken from: www.telegraph.co.uk(choose your 23)

Goalkeeper: Robert Green, Joe Hart, David James

Defender: Glenn Johnson, Rio Ferdinand, John Terry, Ashley Cole, Ledley King, Matthew Upson, Carragher

Midfielder: Joe Cole, Frank Lampard, Garreth Barry, Steven Gerrard, Aaron Lennon, Tom Huddlestone, James Milner, Michael Carrick, Shaunn-Wright Phillips

Striker: Peter Crouch, Wayne Rooney, Jermaine Defoe, Emile Heskey

Eliminated players: Adam Johnson, Leighton Baines, Stephen Warnock, Darren Bent, Scott Parker, Michael Dawson, Theo Walcott

Well, it can be right or wrong. One thing that should be noted that Garreth Barry is still doubtfull ’till today, if he can’t make it, then I think he’ll be replaced by Theo Walcott. But his position as a defensive midfielder will be replaced by Steven Gerrard ‘n SWP will play on the right flank ‘n Joe Cole on the left.

Why I choose Theo Walcott to be taken out? If you see his last two performance, he played with no vision at all. He played so poorly, but on the other side Aaron Lennon played well. What he only got is speed ‘n nothing beside it. So, I think it’s better for Capello not to choose him.

Why I choose Tom Huddlestone? England needs a holding midfielder beside Garreth Barry, and I think this player has an ability to be a holding midfielder better than James Milner. ‘n he show his best in last two games.

Why I choose Carragher? He has shown his best at the friendly match, better than Leighton Baines and Stephen Warnock. Beside his experiences in International match, he can also play at every side of England defence area.

Well, once again it’s only my prediction. Let’s see what will happen on next tuesday. Hope for the BEST for England.

Football is coming home!!

Come on England!!
