Overrated.
Should of taken bent insted. But then again heskey does work better with rooney. Hard one to call but if Zamora was fit would be easy pickings!
SWP will be England's saviour, remember I said this
you look like heskey
Parent
and Malta's squad?
some african immigrants
Parent
good stuff o____o
first i was like :O:$
but then I was like :S:@
xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
unexpected :(
By saying Heskey in unproductive u proved how small ur knowledge about football is
he's slow, fat, inconsistent, shit season, and doesn't score, might aswell put crouch, he's slow and helps and somehow scores atleast.
Parent
and more experience than half of team england put together
Parent
Bent had a good form
Walcott showed some real skills vs Barca
wheres kamz?
Bent is the highest English goal scorer after Rooney isn't he? If England don't perform now Capello will be gone with the wind.


Also 3 Liverpool players, and 4 Ex-Liverpool players.
ye bent got about 23/24 goals with that crap team he has, dunno why he still picks heskey and crouch..................
Parent
sometimes just doesnt happen on International level, just look at Andy Cole..

Heskey causes defences huge problems, if you give him room he will punish that and he is a great team player - just like Crouch it isnt just what he does its also what he forces the opponent to change, opening space for rooney etc. in the process. the combination of strikers we have is the biggest variant across all the World Cup squads imo.
Parent
phillips was another who didn't perform well at international level
Parent
yea, theirs been a few who haven't carried club level performances over to International.
Parent
lampard and gerrard don't either, dunno why lamps takes the penalties either, rooney has never missed one afaik.
Parent
lamps has a great club record taking pens. seems to choke at international level.

Are you mad? Bent over Crouch? Bent is a good player, but he isn't a prolific goalscorer. He had the odd 26 goal this season, before was pretty much on the bench every day. Every match Heskey has played, he's been involved in an assist or lead someone to a goal scoring opportunity. Heskey is built, and can throw anyone of as defenders tend to be big and strong, bent is too fragile. Crouch is a good goalscorer, gives england a plus from set pieces can score with feet and head

den broer van de RedoX :D

hij moest et weten!
Dunno why people is saying that heskey shouldnt be there, him and rooney play great together, but i agree with u maybe using crouch, nothing wrong with not picking Bent and walcott, Bent dosent fit in the team and walcott had a bad season.

even cole would have been a better option than heskey, but leaving walcott out was a mistake, since rooney will be a solo striker.
What about owen?
He is injured.
Parent
He will be injured:
Parent
HE IS FUCKINGH PRO OMG
Parent
Could have been injured.
Parent
heskey is very much an underrated player. Also, shame about walcott but understandable, all hes got is pace, terrible decision making.
bent isn't in the team because he is abysmal. bent has never been able to score at a decent level, only for shit clubs. i'm more amazed warnock has gone instead of baines (spmething to do with home sickness). parker is twice the player barry is, shocking he's not in the team. swp is shit, so is walcott, but i think walcott is less shit than swp. neither of walcott or swp have any skill or end product though, neither can cross and bot have abysmal control. both would be playing second fiddle to lennon anyway so makes little difference
Walcott, wtf?!
Heskey isn't good? Because he doesn't score much goals?

Guess it's like all people only watching Messi @ Barcelona in stead of Xavi, Puyol, Iniesta..

Public in general = dumb.
i smell elitaristic tendencies :)
Parent
Not if you place it in context.. talking about sport here.. not about politics, I wouldn't be arsed to be that serious and discuss politics on the internet, well.. at least not here.
Parent
Who are you to say if some one is dumb?
I say this, humanity itself is dumb. Me, you and killerboy, we are all dumb in our own ways.
Parent
I didn't say a particular person is dumb.. read carefully next time.
And about your example, Killerboy seems rather dumb about football matters here, but he sure is better with computers and stuff like that than most people.
Parent
heskey is in the team so i might go for england trials
A. Young and maybe Agbonlahor (yes, only club skillz) are missing here.
can u pm :@ ?
well, after watching the 2 friendlies england recently played, i'm not too surprised about Walcott being left out, so far his only strong side is his speed.
