This is what i hope Capello picks once all players are fit:

Goal-Keepers:

1. Green
2. Hart
3. Robinson

DEFENDERS:

4. Ferdinand
5. Terry
6. Upson
7. Campbell*
8. A Cole
9. Johnson
10. Bridge

MID-FIELDERS:

11. Gerrard
12. Lampard
13. Barry
14. Carrick
15. Hargreaves*
16. J Cole
17. Walcott
18. Lennon
19. Beckham

STRIKERS:

20. Rooney
21. Heseky
22. Owen*
23. Defoe



Campbell - For me if in the games he plays for Arsenal this season he looks good, i'd hope he goes to WC as a back-up defender. Especially if Hargreaves isn't fit.

Hargreaves - Its seems more & more unlikely that he will make it. If he fit he can obvious play mid-field & back-up RB to Johnson.

Owen: - Fear Capello wont pick him. But 100% believe he should go, since in a hypotetical WC QF or SF i would definately want to see him on the bench. Hopefully he does something big in the league & CL before the season ends, to further push his case


But if Hargreaves aint fit. Campbell cant be picked. Theirfore their replacements would/should be Wes Brown (since he can be a back-up defender & cover Johnson @ RB) & Daren Bent/Crouch.

Milner is the unlikiest to miss out for sure. But i reckon he could still get in, especially if Lennon doesn't recover from his injury in time.


The Best XI once all are fit also would/should be: (based on what Capello picked in the WCQs)


----------------------------------------------Green/Hart---------------------------------------------------------

Johnson-----------------------------Ferdinand----------------Terry-----------------------------------------A Cole

Lennon/Walcott----------------------Lampard----------------Barry-------------------------------------Gerrard----

-----------------------------------------Rooney-----------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------Heskey----------------------------------------------------------

Milner will go ahead of Walcott, I can guarentee. Milner has been very good, is versatile and Capello rates him. Walcott is going backwards quickly at Arsenal. He won't go at this rate. Owen and Defoe can't both go. They are the same player. Infact theres no way Owen will go. Not been in any squads so far. Ferguson doesn't rate him, so hes not playing at United. If Carlton Cole is playing well, he will be battling the last striker spot place out with Darren Bent. Can't ignore Bent's scoring.

My Squad:

(Not in the order of who I'd start)
1:Hart
2:Robinson
3:James

4:Brown
5: Ferdinand
6: Terry (This depends on whether his head is back in the right place. As we saw against Everton, if his head is wrong, he's only an asset to the oppostion)
7: Upson
8: A.Cole
9 G.Jonhson (Were clearly short in the RB role.....)
10: Bridge


11: Lampard
12: Gerrard
13: Barry
14: Lennon
15: JOE COLE (The most naturally creative midifelder we have)
16: Beckham
17: Milner
18: Carrick (As much as I want Hargo back, he just WON't be fit).
19: SWP or Downing (I imagine it will be Downing as Capello is a big fan)

20: Rooney
21: Heskey
22: Carlton Cole or Bent
23: Defoe

Sir could you repost this in this thread below. We will debate it there. I made this duplicate by mistake thanks.
