LOL Gerrard may some hit poor form recently but his already booked his flight to Japan, every player just likes Scholes recently goes through a bad patch.

Murt if you actually watched our matches you would notice that Gerrard has been played at right wing and not his best central midfield position so that puts your Scholes excuse to rest <img src="graemlins/houllier.gif" border="0" alt="[Houllier]" /> ,

Gerrard along with Scholes, Beckham, Owen, & Ferdinand are all certenties baring injury to go to the World Cup, even if they hit poor form Sven knows these players can perform on the greatest stage.

Gerrard along with Scholes, Beckham, Owen, & Ferdinand are all certenties baring injury to go to the World Cup, even if they hit poor form Sven knows these players can perform on the greatest stagenah, if Own doesnt score again this season hes out and if Bex doesnt start another game hes out too

LOL. Booked his place ehh ? <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laugh Out Loud]" />

Scholes is a seasoned vet. Gerrard had one good year - there are no guarantees.

One good year, he's had two quality seasons , Kevin Keegan revealed that bar injuries Gerrard would have started more games at Euro 2000 and Sven named Gerrard along with Beckham, Scholes and Owen as the important players in the squad. Just because his hit a poor run of gmaes you lot are saying he might not make the World Cup squad . I'd be willing to bet my life savings with any one of you that bar injuries Gerrard will be in the world cup squad.

He probably will be in the world cup squad, though like everyone else, his playing time will be dictated by his form.

no, clean the wax out of your ears before you come in here again,
were saying that if he doesnt improve on the miserable showing of the last couple of months he will not be an automatic choice, and far from it at that

 

[Aritro]

I'll be willing to bet both legs and one of me bollocks that he's in the squad.

I don't doubt that, all i was saying is that he'll be in the World Cup squad

 

[Raoul]

My England XI would look something like this.....

----------------Martyn-----------------

Neville------Ferdinand----Terry-----Cole

Dyer------Beckham-----Gerrard------Scholes

--------Owen----------Sheringham-------

comments ?

 

[Aritro]

No Heskey?

 

[Raoul]

I prefer Sheringham or Rickets to Heskey. He isn't exactly having a stellar year at LFC this year. I like the Teddy's experience juxtaposed against Owen's pace. It will keep the opposition guessing.......though Rickets or Phillips would be good as well.

Owen and Heskey would serve only to create problems for each other. Rickets, for me, has to prove himself some more. I'm still of the opinion that Fowler and Owen go together well...

I would prefer Seaman to Martyn, I like Terry and would like to see him play for England, although both your fullbacks can be a bit suspect when defending IMO so i'd replace one of the with Carragher other than that looks good

In that case did you disagree with the Fowler sale ?

Owen and Fowler have never hit it off, if you want to get the best out of Owen it's better to play him with Heskey or Sheringham.

No points for guessing which one...

You can't hold that brilliant off the line clearance against Ashley Cole. He was only doing his job.

 

[Aritro]

Fowler was poor when playing with us, and they were write to sell him. Although most people reckon they should have sold him sooner, I am of the opinion that club legends ought to be given every last chance to prove themselves. Good sale, IMO.

In regards to his England chances, his passing with Leeds has been excellent, and he is looking much sharper. He is not pacy, and I think having Owen making the runs, and Fowler taking shots from outside the box could work.

 

[Raoul]

Why didn't LFC just go out and buy a good striker instead of renting Anelka for a few months ?

LOL , i think cole as the potential to be a top class defender but at the moment he seems to lash out when players get past him and sometimes gets caught out in the wrong positions although going foward he is quite good. Neville is also good getting forward but again defensively he is'nt solid IMO, Carragher is the opposite very solid defensively but not so good at going forward, In international ffotball you can't afford for you defenders to make mistakes so I would replace Carragher (the more solid option IMO) with either Cole or Neville.

Perhaps they are getting money ready for Cisse? Not much available either.

 

[Raoul]

Whoever ends up signing Cisse are going to be very lucky. Personally, I think he will go to us or to Arsenal.

Us because it looks like Yorke and Cole's tenures at United are winding down this year, and Arsenal because they don't have a good 2nd striker.

Anelka is good striker and could be a great signing in the future, at first i thought the club were loaning him at first to check him out and than sign him in the summer(we have that option), although i've heared a strong rumour that we were after another striker but we're told to come back at the end of the season which is why we loaned Anelka until then.

Fatboy(Wiltord), is a good creative player, but he lacks class. Bergkamp is still capable, but past his best. Kanu can play a bit wouldn't you say?

 

[Jens]

but kanus no goal scorer .. he doesnt score consistently enough

somewhere heard pool will have to part with 15m quid if they sign anelka on a permanent basis

It'll be something like £15m it has'nt been confimed, but don't be surprised if we sign someone else in the summer

 

[Raoul]

You won't sign someone else unless you lose one of your existing strikers. Heskey would be the ideal candidate.

I mean we may not sign Anelka but sign someone else.

 

[Aritro]

I've doubts that we'll sell a (relative) youngster for whom we forked out £11m a mere 2 years ago. He was our best striker last season. Litmanen might be the one getting arsed.

 

[Raoul]

Furthermore, your top priority in the summer should be an attacking midfielder who can run at defenders. If your management are smart, they'll go after D'Allesandro (even though he'd rather play for us).

 

[Jens]

litmanen´s criminally underused ... he has double the flair the whole rest put together has ..

We've got too many non-EU players as it is, i would much rather we signed Van Dar Vaart
