Roy Hodgson has named a 30-man squad for the game with Denmark at Wembley next week.
Goalkeepers: Fraser Forster (Celtic), Ben Foster (West Bromwich Albion), Joe Hart (Manchester City), John Ruddy (Norwich City).
Defenders: Leighton Baines (Everton), Gary Cahill (Chelsea), Steven Caulker (Cardiff City), Ashley Cole (Chelsea), Glen Johnson (Liverpool), Luke Shaw (Southampton), Chris Smalling (Manchester United), Kyle Walker (Tottenham Hotspur).
Midfielders: Ross Barkley (Everton), Michael Carrick (Manchester United), Tom Cleverley (Manchester United), Steven Gerrard (Liverpool), Jordan Henderson (Liverpool), Adam Lallana (Southampton), Frank Lampard (Chelsea), James Milner (Manchester City), Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (Arsenal), Raheem Sterling (Liverpool), Andros Townsend (Tottenham Hotspur), Jack Wilshere (Arsenal).
Forwards: Jermain Defoe (Toronto FC), Rickie Lambert (Southampton), Jay Rodriguez (Southampton), Wayne Rooney (Manchester United), Daniel Sturridge (Liverpool), Daniel Welbeck (Manchester United)
How the hell are Cleverley and Welbeck in there? And i must've missed Caulker's outstanding defensive displays for Cardiff. Also 4 keepers and no place for Adam Johnson who's been superb since xmas.

Actually the more i look at it that defence looks f*cking terrible!!
|
|
By:
Brutal squad.
|
|
By:
Any point in taking 4 goalkeepers for a friendly
 |
|
By:
Chris Smalling??? FFS
|
|
By:
I hope a journo asks Hodgson at the first press conference "what exactly has Cleverley done this season to earn his selection"
|
|
By:
Bisco hes a regurler member of the current premier league champions team.

and a pivitoval member at that, im not sure where theyd b without him
|
|
By:
Surely gareth barry is in better form then nearly all those midfielders? lampard
|
|
By:
Why does he pick Townsend who's been useless for ages? Oh yeah, he plays in London of course..
|
|
By:
I know you're a bit dim Captain Inbred but there only 7 London based players in the squad, that's 23.3%, and one of the strikers plays in a mickey mouse league 5000 miles away, some logic you doughnut.
|
|
By:
The only consistently excellent English player in the league all season ignored by wOY ... quite incredible. Barry may as well retire tomorrow if Hodgson picks that crew of has beens and never will be's before him.
|
|
By:
forwards are perhaps worst ever selected, only sturridge is any semblance of form and he can be a headless chicken.
|
|
By:
You can understand the selection of most of the forwards though as there is a paucity of quality behind Rooney and Sturridge, although surely a place could be made for Johnson by dropping one of them ....
Gareth Barrys omission is laughable to the point of being unprofessional however. I'm not even English and it irritates me ! |
|
By:
with all due respect,but when you have 4 players from a club like Southampton in the England squad (and probably 3 starters)you know things are not good.
|
|
By:
its as though south Africa never happened. same ol, sameol. glen Johnson ffs. its not even a meritocracy.
|
|
By:
Ah never saw this and bumped a tom cleveley thread.
Look at that morpeth using long words on here. |

Since the 1970's after each tournament,world cup/euro's the powers that be continually stress about building for the future,investing in the youth to win a major tournament...when is the future going to become the present.
It is actually getting worse. |
|
By:
agree, its always' roots and branches ' after being humiliated yet again.
|
|
By:
the problem is the lack of players who are not in the squad
judorick nailed it at 9.00pm last night still its a cup, and we know minnows can raise their game  |
|
By:
like Hereford and Hendon ?
|
|
By:
did they win ?
nah we need the sunderland spirit !!! |

Three quality left backs there.
|
|
By:
Shame old shower of sh it. Dads army just like last 8 yrs?
Noble Delph Barry Flanagan Shelvey huddlestone Davies and joe ward who has highest tackle success in prem for starters would make a difference. But nope it's fat frank and man utd v the world. |
|
By:
Jageilka too should be in.
|
|
By:
ash cole cant get a game and looks finnish when he does
the other two are hyped, but need to show something in an engerland shirt in the games before we go to brazil |
|
By:
left backs probalby where we're as strong as anyone in world. its the other 10 positions that's the problem.
|
|
By:
Drop anyone in their 30s (except goalkeepers)
That would be a start. Take them to a secluded World Cup training camp. Keep the fittest 23. Drop the rest. |
|
By:
Ward prowse as well I'm just thinking on the spot and there's a dozen in form players ignored .
The man is old and thinks old |
|
By:
id rather drop the ones that cant pass the ball to somebody it a same coloured top
fitness can be attained in the month or so before it starts and i hope somebody tells woy that lamps and stevie gee dont play well together |
|
By:
What f uck do we need 4 keepers for and then ignore some of the most exciting players we have had in years.
|
|
By:
maybe hes going to play 2 x 7 a side games in training so needs 4 keepers
|
|
By:
That should achieve a lot don
I thought it was quite obvious the old guard will never win anything apart from rio and JT who is probably the only old soldier who should be considered looks the same old rubbish . Milner ffs. And to even think of a utd player Rooney included is beyond me. Didn't he say he would always pick players on form whatever club. Doesn't seem like it. He's bound to wreck Barkley as he's only 60% fit why not keep him back so others don't see what we have. |
