because terry plays for england @marcus..
@Tuanis
I believe that sometimes we just have to trust those young players to give them confidence and I am sure they will not disapoint when they have our support and trust . We set high expectations from England and when they fail we do not give them support that they need when they need us the most . So, England must take young players and Jones without exception and give them chance to shine . As much as I like Carrick , because he is one of my most hated United players and most liked English players , we must be realistic . He barely played this season and if he is not in form at end of the season , he will be and must be dismissed .
@gunnerafc
Either way wether Hodgson chooses Ashley to start or not , he must be at the World Cup . FA should swallow their pride and stupidity and for once think about English national team. It is one thing killing national team with the hectic shcedules in EPL , FA , Carling Cup on top of Europa League and CL and another banning a captain and best defender that England can offer at the moment.
@wolfie
interesting , but Johnson and Lennon usually do not track players when they loose ball. England will be severly exposed on the flanks . I do not know why people insist on taking Young ? Is it because of his ability to dive and win penalties and dangerous freekicks ? because I do not see any other reasons ....

Here are some more since you like them :D
#AskCarrick What's it like playing midfield on your own?
#AskCarrick What do the benches at Wembley feel like? Which one of them is your favourite?
#AskCarrick Did you know that unlike rugby, a forward pass is a perfectly legitimate option in football?
#askcarrick whats the key to your fantastic link up play with de gea?
In case anyone doesn't know Terry does not play for England anymore. He retired and has decided not to play in the WC 2014.
@rama: Terry is still a World class defender. He can retire again after WC. ;)
@Marc - This one is more solid on the wings
It was a coin flip between Young and Wilshere. I rather have Young as an impact sub.
@Wolfie...
He has retired as an international player!
'In-form Chelsea captain John Terry will never play for England again,
even if Three Lions head coach Roy Hodgson picks up the phone and begs
him to come out of international retirement for this summer’s Fifa World
Cup finals in Brazil, according to reports in the Daily Mirror.'
^ yeah, so? Scholes also retired and then came back to United.. So what's your point? Never say never :)
@rama "according to reports in the Daily Mirror."
Not sure how credible that source is..
I was thinking about whether to put terry in it but i dont think that he is better than jagielka. Also i believe that lallana has been destroying the premier league this season and deserves to be included in my line up and whilshire is a definite no matter what happens. Ideally sturridge and welback will be further wide. It was either gerrad or lampard because they both do the same thing which is slowing down the game and we need 1 of those in our team not 2. We need youth as well as experience if we want to have any chance of winning a game in this world cup. Only people who i feel should make this team but dont have enough game time to prove themselves is milner who is the most consistent player in the league, townsend and walcott (obviously because of injury)

@Wolfie
Interesting . Is not this formation that brought success to Brazil in 2002 ? 5-3-2 with Roberto Carlos and Cafu pushing higher up the pitch , but is our players are as creative in midfield as Brazil ? Nope. It may back fire against stronger opposition .
@DrunkenMonkey
I do not think we have the right players to play that formation .
@Marcus: Personally, I'd love to see an England team try a formation like that. Speaking for myself, I'm a big fan of 3-5-2, and I reckon we could pull it off, as Wofie's line-up suggests.
I think that we'd do well to get shot of Terry once and for all, despite the fact he's been good lately, but he could certainly do a job in the World Cup. I don't think we need him to be honest, though. For example:
If you put together a back 3 of Cahill, Jagielka, Dawson, that's a trio of decently powerful, decently agile and decently talented defenders, covering Hart, who isn't shy about taking charge of his own penalty area. It's not really a top-notch defense, but, the simple truth is: England haven't got one, any more. Even if you threw in ol' Terry. We haven't had that since Campbell and Ferdinand, though the Ferdinand and and Terry years. The 'next gen' of world-class English defenders hasn't exactly been on display, if you see what I mean? :p
So, I would go for functionality at the back, and put in three lads who are intelligent enough to read the game in front of them, and athletic enough to actually make that intelligence count for something. And to help them out?
Stick Gerrard in front of them, to keep them calm, disciplined, and safe with his own fantastic work-rate. Captain through-and-through.
So, that's Jag, Cahill and Daws, in front of Hart, with Stevie G sat protecting them. How about those wing backs? Well, the cool part about being English, is that at least we have Baines and Cole at our disposal, on the left. ;) Take your pick; either an experienced class act in the form of Cole, or the PL's best left-back. I'm happy with that.
Out on the right you could go a number of ways. Walker has the pace and stamina to keep his flank open all game long, much as Cafu used to do at Milan with his tireless charging up and down the wing. Walker can certainly provide that level of athleticism, even if his technique doesn't compare to a great like Cafu, and also is well-used to using that same pace to close down opposition wingers. Or, as first suggested, trust to Lennon, instead. He's actually one of the hardest-working wingers in the league, and has learned to be very dedicated to defense when needed to. Plus, he has the ability to wriggle and pink past players to open up a charge; I'd be happy letting him just express himself in that position.
As for the front 2 of midfield? Go nuts. Wilshire and Lallana. Wilshire and Barkley. Barkley and Lallana. Whatever you suggest, you are right, because so many of our young offensive midfielders are almost interchangeable. Which may be a good thing, long-term, too. But, ultimately, assuming full fitness, I'd prefer Wilshire and Lallana, with Lampard able to cover or finish off a game for them, as a competent veteran general.
Up front is Rooney and Sturridge, for me. Speaks for itself, really. Welbeck has a strong case, but, practically nobody else does, although if he were also fully fit, I'd not weep over pairing up Rooney and Walcott together.
But, anyways this would be a good use of our current assets, I think:
@Marcus2011
The attack really sucks. I would rather have Milner instead of Townsend. And I don't believe Carrick should go, when some players get old they do mistakes which can cost a lot.
Should Terry get call back after his impressive performance yesterday and for so far having a great season ? If he should get a call , should he get his captain armband back ?
Who else should get a call and how should starting line up look ?
I had to reedit with so many links from other webstie somehow image would not show . Maybe it was just on my end . Either way here we go my formation
