Posted April 11, 200817 yr My choices: GK: Shay Given RB: Alan Hutton CB: John Terry CB: Rio Ferdinand LB: Ashley Cole RM: David Bentley CM: Barry Ferguson CM: Steven Gerrard LM: Damien Duff FC: Craig Bellamy FC: Wayne Rooney SUBS: Craig Gordon, Sol Campbell, Frank Lampard, James McFadden, Michael Owen. Who would make up your Great Britain team?
April 11, 200817 yr I don't think a Great Britian team would work. Most of the positions would be filled with English players bar the goalkeeping jersey most likely.
April 11, 200817 yr Given and Duff don't count, they're Irish. And who would pick Duff ovr Joe Cole anyway? Probably the most consistant player for England over the last two years and becoming more of a key player for Chelsea all the time below a has-been who spends two thirds of the season on the treatment table?! :lol:
April 11, 200817 yr I don't think a Great Britian team would work. Most of the positions would be filled with English players bar the goalkeeping jersey most likely. Hutton is spot on. I think England will struggle if they continue to use Wes Brown, Micah Richards and Jolean Lescott as full-backs, you need a natural there...
April 12, 200817 yr got to have the record breaking David Healy up front. GK: Allan McGregor RB: Alan Hutton CB: Rio Ferdinand CB: John Terry LB: Gareth Bale :kink: RW: Theo Walcott CM: Steven Gerrard CM: Barry Ferguson LW: Joe Cole ST: David Healy ST: Michael Owen Subs: Gordon (GK), Richards, Wheater, Robson, Rooney EDIT: and there's quite a battle going on here as it is. England seem to be the only one who want a Team GB as the other nations are claiming they're worried they'll all be amalgamated despite reassurances from FIFA they won't, whereas England are the only nation to oppose the 'Four Nations' with Scotland, Wales, N Ireland, and Rep Ireland all looking to start that tournament in Feb/May 2011 because it is claimed they want 'higher profile' opponents for friendlies. England are starting to become the Newcastle of International football :heehee:
