James Beattie?! Fuck me, that horse bolted a long time ago, the guy's a big lump playing in a poor Championship team.

I reckon Owen is still a good enough goalscorer if he's right. Otherwise I'd like to see us play Rooney up top with Abongwhatsit and Joe Cole off him, like Cole plays for Chelsea.

Sometimes you can tell in training if they can cut it . I imagine pearce has made capello fully aware of johnsons ability


Why would Pearce know about AJ? Capello must see more of him than Stuart Pearce.

The guy's 27 or 28, it's not like he's training with the U21's under Pearce's watchful eye is it?

The point was it's not just premiership goals that matter, let's not forget Johnson's got 0 England goals in 8 games, Crouch has 14 in 25, this is what matters most.

Quote from: "Don Rogers Shop"
Stop going on they are both shit and not international strikers . Defoe,rooney and James beattie are the best 3 options
Oh dear. Beattie is even worse than Johnson. You think Crouch isn't an international striker despite scoring 14 international goals in 2 years but a very average Championship player is?

It being a pointless friendly is why I'd like to see a bit more of the formation we finished with against Switzerland. I was there and it looked good. Maybe over a full 90 minutes it wouldn't work but we should at least try it a bit more so that it's an option for the late stages.

It's really difficult to understand what you're writing when you're barely literate Don and I can fully believe the Beattie comment was serious given some of the other retarded stuff you've written.

So what part of Johnson has been overlooked by every england manager to date do you not understand . What part of he is not Evertons first choice striker do you not understand ?

I suggest you become a liitle bit more involved in more conversations and stop just popping on every now and again to suck Crouchs cock you fucking moron .

Becks is one of the few players that would play for England for free and for the love of his country.

I think an 100th cap in a friendly is the least he deserves for his services to the team.


Totally agree. and I believe BECKs is still the most influencial player England has even if he is a shadow of his old self.

Who has Crouch scored against at International Level?  He'd be more effective if he could a) outjump and head the ball against anyone over 6ft, which he should be able to do, and b) stop hugging defenders when he does challenge in the air.

I still maintain that having him in an England team just goes to show the standard of player we have in this country.

Lampard should be put out to pasture at international level.  I can't fault the man's record for club but it is clear he can't work with Gerrard and out of the two Gerrard has that little bit more.  It's got to be time to develop someone else in the 2nd midfielder role, and not Barry (a useful player to have in the squad, but again a worry if he's the best we have).

Use some punctuation ffs.

It is very ironic for you to call me a moron when my IQ's probably more than 50% higher than yours.

Most of the teams he's played against, Croatia, Macedonia, Greece, Uruguay, Austria. Croatia are ranked as one of the best teams in the world and the toughest team England have faced competitively recently and Greece are 10th in the fifa rankings so clearly he doesn't just score against weak teams.

Indeed, it's a shame that despite this high standard McClaren still couldn't manage to get us to qualify.

Defoe and Rooney would be a good front 2 pairing.

Crouch has his place - as a squad player. Should start on the bench imo.

It was aimed at Don Rogers Shop and I'd put money on it. I know what my IQ is so I can afford to be confident.

What does IQ have to do with judging how good a football player is?

Not much but it has everything to do with being a moron, which is what he called me.
