February 2, 200719 yr kev that is England squad for the freindly v spain announced at 4pm Its a disgrace if he is overlooked as that tosser from Newcastle is set for a recall
February 2, 200719 yr Dyer is an injury-prone show pony, Kev is better than him & Barton. But he won't get a call-up, as we've got an England manager in charge now who's as useless as Keegan.
February 2, 200719 yr we've got an England manager in charge now who's as useless as Keegan. I laughed when I read this... http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/t...ugh/6323097.stm England coach Steve McClaren has come under savage attack from his former Middlesbrough star Massimo Maccarone. Maccarone, 27, launched his tirade in the Italian media after joining Siena. He said: "The ever-smiling Steve 'The Magnificent' McClaren is the most two-faced and false person I've had the misfortune to meet in football."
February 2, 200719 yr England (squad): Robinson (Tottenham), Foster (Watford), Kirkland (Wigan); Gary Neville (Man Utd), Phil Neville (Everton), Rio Ferdinand (Man Utd), Woodgate (Middlesbrough), Bridge (Chelsea), Terry (Chelsea), Carragher (Liverpool), Dawson (Tottenham), Richards (Man City); Lennon (Tottenham), Gerrard (Liverpool), Hargreaves (Bayern Munich), Carrick (Man Utd), Downing (Midd'boro), Wright-Phillips (Chelsea), Parker (Newcastle), Lampard (Chelsea), Barry (Aston Villa), Barton (Man City), Jenas (Tottenham), Dyer (Newcastle); Rooney (Man Utd), Crouch (Liverpool), Defoe (Tottenham), Johnson (Everton). Ignoring the fact that Phil Neville, Carragher and Richards have all played midfield this season, there are still essentially 12 midfielders picked in this squad. The majority of which have much more ability than Nolan does; doubt he'll ever play for England to be honest
February 2, 200719 yr how does SWP get in the squad, he barely ever plays for his club? dont see england quality in barton either.

Ignoring the fact that Phil Neville, Carragher and Richards have all played midfield this season, there are still essentially 12 midfielders picked in this squad. The majority of which have much more ability than Nolan does; doubt he'll ever play for England to be honest I would prefer Nolan to any of those. Maybe the exception of Parker although I don't think Parker is any better than Nolan. And Jenas FFS! The guy is f*cking w*nk. I'm not that sure but I don't think he has been a regular in the Spurs team this year, and has been out for a while with an injury. Anyway on the plus side this means that he won't get injured and can concentrate on Bolton.
February 2, 200719 yr I would prefer Nolan to any of those. Maybe the exception of Parker although I don't think Parker is any better than Nolan. I disagree, Parker is far better than Kevin Nolan in my opinion (he is always injured though) I presume Barry is in as back up to Wayne Bridge, due to Ashley Cole being injured. Jenas getting selected baffles me everytime though
February 2, 200719 yr Nolan wouldn't make the Faroe Islands on the back of his performances this season
February 2, 200719 yr Nolan wouldn't make the Faroe Islands on the back of his performances this season Agree totally Zico. Apart from Arsenal away, Nolan has been Fcuking shite this season. Infact, the second half performance of our Iranian star on Wednesday puts doubt in my mind if Nolan deserves his place in the Bolton team, never mind England!

You have seen what we are like without Nolan. The fact that we havent won a game without him, I think we have lost all 4, shows that even on a bad day he is one of our most important players. To suggest to leave our captain out of injury hit team is stupid.
