And why would you ditch Carra? They need another RB in back-up, even though he's just an average RB.
I think Rio will start before Dawson, simply because of his experience.

Lennon is by far the better player, Walcott is too one-dimensional with his tunnel-vision game plan.
But I agree that Walcott is in better form at the moment.

Carra is horrible, his time has passed.. and seeing him as a RB, is just comedy, if you're not a Pool-fan, then it's more like a tragedy.
Even Milner, J.Cole, Parker, Rio or Dawson would be better alternatives on the RB.
Rio will start, but the way Dawson has played the last 20 games, easily eclipses Rio.. he's starting on name/reputation/career, kinda like Gerrard.

Yep.

Furor Teutonicus:
Surprised A. Young is not pn there. Played a bad second half of the season no?

Well, here's the Brazilian squad (23 players)

Julio Cesar (Inter Mailand), Doni (AS Rom), Gomes (Tottenham Hotspur)

Maicon (Inter Mailand), Dani Alves (FC Barcelona), Michel Bastos (Olympique Lyon), Gilberto (Cruzeiro Belo Horizonte), Lucio (Inter Mailand), Juan (AS Rom), Luisao (Benfica Lissabon), Thiago Silva (AC Mailand)

Gilberto Silva (Panathinaikos Athen), Felipe Melo (AC Florenz), Ramires (Benfica Lissabon), Elano (Galatasaray Istanbul), Kaka (Real Madrid), Julio Baptista (AS Rom), Kleberson (Flamengo Rio de Janeiro), Josue (VfL Wolfsburg)

Robinho (FC Santos), Luis Fabiano (FC Sevilla), Nilmar (FC Villarreal), Grafite (VfL Wolfsburg)


Maybe I'm wrong, but I think Brazil had way better teams in the last few world cups. They def. had bigger names in the past, and quite a few play in average clubs.
Of course they're a favourite, but still...

Too similar to Lennon, Johnson, Walcott & SWP as a player type probably.. and Agbonlahor is probably left out because he's too similar to Defoe/Bent.

Agbonlahor deserves it more than A.Young, imo, considering Agbo's form this season.

Carragher is a disgrace in my eyes.

He would be....you're an Everton fan ;)

On the subject of the England selection - I have no idea how you can put Walcott ahead of Lennon after last season K.Dub.
