No more square pegging into round holes…
It’s only taken five thousand eight hundred and fifty games for everyone to twig that Lampsie and Gerrard simply can’t stand one another so would rather spend the game falling over, slicing the ball, or simply staring mindlessly into the stands than actually forming a decent partnership, so one of them has to go. On current form, that one would be Stevie G. He might be much easier to like, but on current club form, Lampsie is one of the best in the world. Perhaps Capello would be wise to consider having them playing alternate games? Food for thought. Elsewhere on Wednesday, The Spoiler would give left footer Downing an outing, if only to give the side a sense of balance. Upson can sit this one out in the dugout, pondering his stuttering display at the weekend, with Brown shifting inside, and Glen Johnson adding a bit more flair and speed to the right flank. Plus, of course, Wayne Bridge comes in for that injured little oik, Mr Cheryl Cole.
Agree? Of course you don’t. Fancy telling us why?

Crouch and Defoe for me please.

Gotta agree with Mr. Squee on Defoe atleast, seeing as he, you know, actually scores. But I’m sure that Heskey’s in possesion of some really important skills that I have yet to discover. Maybe. Probably not.
The rest seems fine to me, although it kinda sucks, being forced to play a so-so player on the left just because them right-feet can’t get it done right.

Perhaps Ashley Young for Downing?
And Martin, you should know that Heskey’s not in there to do the scoring, but to facilitate the process

Young’s not in the squad still for some reason but if he was he’d be starting all day long!
I’d go with the same midfield as in the Spoiler team but in an ideal world Hargreaves as the holding man, Young or Cole on the left, Walcott on the right and Lampard attacking.

“Perhaps Ashley Young for Downing?”
No perhaps about it!
