Bris Vegas Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 4-3-3 Fielding Gibbs Jones Smalling Walker Henderson Rodwell Wilshire Welbeck Carroll Sturridge This team could/should push for a top half PL finish IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastKentRam Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 4-3-3 Fielding Gibbs Jones Smalling Walker Henderson Rodwell Wilshire Welbeck Carroll Sturridge This team could/should push for a top half PL finish IMO Wouldnt have Henderson in there but apart from that agree. Sinclair or Cleverley to take his place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinclair is good in this league but there is no way he is better than Henderson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Srg Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Start on the 11th of June, England (and Frank Fielding's) first game is on Sunday the 12th. No Carroll or Wilshere for England, which is a disappointment, as Pearce has given in to club pressure. Also believe international football should come first. Interestingly, just seen Juan Mata (Valencia winger) is in the Spain squad for it, and he has played the same number of games at club level as Wilshere, but played more full internationals this season. Burnout my arse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burnout my arse. Of course it should, bit with both of them, it's not about club before country, it's about their future careers above one poxy tournament. It wouldn't have been fair for Wilshire to have been played. If he burned out, he would have missed pre-season, missing vital development for both club and country. Might set the lad back a whole season, and we need to get him in to the senior side. Wilshere's seen the evidence, he as much as anyone wants to play. I think that tells you everything.

Srg Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Whereas Mata, for example, has played 30 odd games for the last two seasons in a row, went to the World Cup and is now in this tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinclair is good in this league but there is no way he is better than Henderson Everyone seems to rave about Henderson and although i've rarely seen him play, when ever i have he's looked nothing more than average. Just looks another typical English work horse type player with little skill or brain power. Rodwell and Wilshere are on another level to him, Lansbury and Cleverley have got far more potential as well imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mata and Wilshire are actually different people though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Srg Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Just don't see the difference, both young lads, one has played far more football over the past few years. It's not actually Wilshere anyway, it's ******* Wenger. Wilshere wanted to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duracell Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Yeah but they're not robots, every players different. For example, Messi is the same age as Brayford, but..... Wilshere's problem has always been his fitness, and he also plays a very different game to Mata which is much more draining on the body. Also - no winter break in this country.
