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.
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.

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.

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 !

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.

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.

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.
