Right THRILLSEEKERS. I have a game which will inevitably FLOP but I'm willing to give it a go.

Name your 23 man England squad for the world cup. I will bounce this thread upon squad announcement date and will run a complex calculation (adding up) to figure out who is NSC's ORACLE.

This couldn't be MORE fun if I tried.

Remember, 3 goalkeepers must be named.

Good Luck.

As an idea: Here was our sorry lot from Fabio's class of 2010.


Goalkeepers
Robert Green:wow:, Joe Hart, David James
Defenders
Jamie Carragher, Ashley Cole, Rio Ferdinand, Glen Johnson, Ledley King, John Terry, Matthew Upson:thumbsup:, Stephen Warnock :lolol:
Midfielders
Gareth Barry, Michael Carrick, Joe Cole, Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard, Aaron Lennon, James Milner, Shaun Wright-Phillips:lolol:
Forwards
Peter Crouch, Jermain Defoe, Emile Heskey:clap:, Wayne Rooney

That's the most insanely attacking set of midfielders England would've ever put out.

Indeed but I've taken Carrick, Lamps and Gerrard to be the more defensive minded ones.

To be fair, without the likes of Barry in contention we really only have Carrick as our known holding midfielder.

Jimmy Milner? We do have a shortage of PROPER dms though don't we? How I long for Owen Hargreaves.
