yeah, I was watching that game.

Good thing you guys have one of the easiest groups in the WC. And don't give me that shit about Sweden being a difficult opponent. That line of thinking proves my point.

He broke the 3rd metatarsal in Euro 2004 and it took him 4 months to recover. No way is he healing and playing 6 weeks after this one. With that said, the Swede must still choose Rooney for the team and hope he can play in the second round.

All of a sudden, T&T is looking tough.

Aww come on, dont take the piss

Rooney will be back in 5 weeks, the fracture aint as bad.

We have who? Sweden, Trinidad, and Paraguay i think.

WIth or without rooney we should win at LEAST the T&T and paraguay games. Sweden is always tough, always, nothing on Brazil but still tough.

The attacking line up without the wonder kid will be -

Joe Cole, Beckham, Lampard, Owen, Defoe.

That aint bad man

England is my second team, so I am hoping that they do well. Should be no problems getting through to the KO stage. Anyway, this way Rooney and Owen don't have to compete for the golden boot, my man Michael Owen will have it wrapped up by the third game. And I see by your attacking lineup you must have Gerrard holding in the MF?

And can I ask you something without getting you all pissy? It is my opinion that Beckham is a little washed up. I think one of the best things that is going to happen when Sven goes is that hopefully the new manager will cut Beckham and give the captaincy to either Terry or Gerrard. To his credit, Becks has learned to backtrack sometimes and play a little defense, but he his talents on a dead ball are overshadowed by the whole in the field he leaves whenever the ball is live.

you have a point. You gotta make gerrard the captain when beckham goes, maybe even now.

BUt cutting beckham completely? HE can dribble a bit now, he can cut back, he can cross better than anyone in the world. Id keep him in till he gets to 35, then drop him

Good, then hopefully Becks can back up his statement that he would love to play in the US.

Sweden is always a tough first round opponent. Then they make the knockout stages, tighten up and play like crap.
