You are right about the centre-backs. Most of the defence is a bit iffy. What will probably happen is England will coast through the group stages, but will ship goals when they meet the real contenders. |

whats your evidence that england will ship goals to any of the main contenders? im not being stupid here or havign a go just whats your evidence.. we have NEVER been battered in a world cup in recent times. we rarely lose by more than one goal or penalties..
i just dont see it and think its just obv anti england sentiment but good luck |

My comment that England might ship goals due to a weak defence did not mention previous World cup performances. That was your slant on my post.
My guess is this England defence is not very good, especially at centre-back. And the two main men in midfield, Lampard and Gerrard are old. |

gerrard will be shipped out on the left away from the main action, do you not think capello will have a plan to protect his defence? seriously?
and a fit defence of johnson rio terry (although id prefer king) ashley cole is as good as anything in south africa. johnson isnt the best defender i agree but the rest.. top class if king plays. and in front of them will be two holding midfielders i think.. with lennon on the right and gerrard on the left (ratehr have milner) bombing for4ward |
