I’m going to have to agree with Mustard AND forty-forty five. It’s obvious Capello won’t shift to a 4-2-1-2-1 so he’ll choose the ‘very English’ formation of 4-4-2 but I would like to see Lennon on the right ahead of ANY of our current righties. His pace and ability to take on defenders should be key to our campaign next Summer. However, it’s also vital that when (not if) Gerrard and Fatty take the two CM roles that they are supported by wingers who have bags of confidence. This throws my argument in to disrepute since Lennon ISN’T all too confident in an England shirt and ISN’T the proven goalscorer that Walcott was… in that one game…

Anyone for SWP?

I’m afraid you’re both wrong.

a) Hat tricks are very nice, but this doesn’t change the fact that walcot isn’t fit to lace lennons boots. I’m afraid I can’t be bothered to spend any time googling “stats” to back this up, so you’ll just have to take my word for it.

b) England will win the world cup. You’re going to have to trust me on this.

I like you arrows Interestment, you should get a job at SkySports.

Of course, the rest is nonsense. We’ll play 4 across the middle (inc Lampser) and 2 up top. England will be eliminated in the QF’s…

I’m not going to get into a big football debate with you Mustard, for fear of getting glassed in the face – I know what you football types are like. Hence, I shan’t mention that Walcott once scored a very good hat-trick, while Lennon appears not to have scored for England. Neither shall I dare to point out that goals win football matches. I’m just not that kind of guy….
