Put it down to my misunderstanding your question, then.
Forza Juve

Don't get intimated by Paul who despite the bark and bite is actually a very logical and reasonable guy..he just becomes biatchy with senstive subjects like England and the Juve Curva..or lack of it :cheesy:
Woodgate? I favored him as well over Sol Campbell before he moved on to Madrid, and after this year-long injury I doubt he will ever be the same again.
Scott Parker would provide more grit and ball winning skills in midfield, however I prefer a player like Carrick who is better with the ball and a good passer. Gerrard adds bite in midfield as well, and with that world class back four you should be pretty sound defensively. The formation looks very solid straight through the middle, and with Ferdinand at RB you have an automatic upgrade to good old Gary.
As for Beckham being included, I'm not so sure. Yes, he gives you the freekick element that could decide a few games, however I would rather let SWP play and completely dominate both flanks with speed and precision. Freekicks are indeed important however you have JoeCole and Gerrard who can take them rather well. Beckham just does not have much going for him when I look at the alternative SWP.
After watching Rooney in Portugal I believe he could take the front role and excel at it. With the strong presence on both wings and Lampard behind him, there is a lot of room for movement and the interchange of positions. Rooney has all the skill he needs to play up top, and I remember him causing France a lot of problems by challenging them on the brink of offsides. Or you could put Owen up top but there goes the whole system cuz you need to fit Rooney in the team.

This Pre-Game, Pre-Season kickoff on ABC is a complete fvcking joke...why can't we ever just wait for the football game instead of having to endur shitty performances by Rolling Stones and Ozzy of all people. We also do not need to give praise to the Patriots again...they have had enough of it the past three years FFS. Seriously, all these Pre-game parties are fvcking dumb and a waste of time...that is what you call tourist shit.
Thank God we don't have to take this shit before soccer matches.

Fine...even though Italy won and there began England's demise into mediocrity. I would also like to point out that Italy had the likes of Baresi, Maldini and Baggio all of whom would prominent on the European stage and/or top honours. (Demonstration of difference in calibre)
Enough said.
Lost to the Champions...and lost in PK.
Sorry but thats a load of horsesh*t..England has not proven to be a serious contender for God knows how long and they have not proven to be anything more than a team of spoiled over-hyped prima donna's...
kind of like Italy of the last four years.
