England Team....

Roy has the chance now to look back on a brilliant season in the PL and pick a team of youngish players to go forward. The press has already started making fun at him - and over the past 2 years, moaned at Capello picking old school players - so Roy, give them what they want - we have the young talent.

Look at the possibilities below for each position - and I may have missed some, but pick your strongest team which includes some experienced players too:

GK
Hart/Foster


RB's
Richards/Walker/Simpson/Kelly

CB's
Lescott/Cahill/Terry/Rio/Dawson/Jones/Smalling/Williamson/Jagielka

LB's
Cole/Baines/Gibbs/Rose

DFM/MF
Barry/Carrick/Wilshere/Parker/Rodwell/Gerrard/Henderson/Cleverley/Lampard

Wingers/Wide players
A Johnson/Lennon/Young/Downing/Walcott/Oxe/Sturridge/Dyer/Agbonlahor/Hoilett

Strikers
Rooney/Defoe/Holt/Bent/Welbeck/Moses/Crouch/Zamora


No doubt I've missed a few obvious ones and some that others will think deserve to be added.

Of the ones I've picked - my team would be this:

Hart

Richards
Cahill
Lescott
Cole

Young
Barry
Gerrard
Oxe

Sturridge
Rooney

It's a tough choice blue, in a way it's like picking Citys team.

What i think he should start with and what he actually does are probably gonna be 2 completely different things. Here's my starting line up anyway:

...............Little Joe

Walker.....Cahill......Rio......Cole

............Parker......Barry

...Gerrard.....Rooney....Young

................Welbeck

Not bad Shaken - and a place for your love buddy.

I've gone for mainly youth and pace out wide, with a little experience to back the midfield up.

3 goalscorers in Sturridge, Rooney and Gerrard with Barry holding.

But like you said - he will no doubt go with a little more experience, especially at CB.

I'd like Micah to start but don't think he will. No idea whether Rio'll start, he may well go with Terry (can't see Lescott starting tbh).

He may play 4-4-2, which will completely balls my team up.

He may start with Rooney up top on his own, with another Midfielder (Lampard maybe) coming in, allowing Gerrard to push further up to support Rooney.

Who knows mate, anything's possible.

Don't you mean Stuwwidge, Wooney, Gewwawd and Bawwy?

Sorry, it's like Life of Brian, having Woy in charge
