o JaY Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 Here is my 1st squad for a friendly against Hungary. As you can see there's quite a few changes, with 3 uncapped players in Kyle Walker, Kevin Davies and Gary Cahill. I have also called up some experience in Danny Murphy and added a bit of youth in there aswell. Note: Joe Hart got injured so I called up Paul Robinson, who a day later retired :confused:.

o JaY Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 Okay, so here is my starting XI for the friendly at home to Hungary. I've gone for the 442 diamond with a strong defence over pace (with the exception of Ashley Cole). Scott Parker seemed a good choice for the DM spot with pace on either side. Both Young and Lennon can whip and good ball in too. I then decided Gerrard, my captain, would be perfect for slot behind the front two. Bobby Zamora and Wayne Rooney were the strikers. England 3 - 2 Hungary We started off great with Wayne Rooney and Stevie G running the show and then John Terry got a goal from a corner. We then seemed to lack that cutting edge after going 3-0 up and after half time came out looking for a goal. Hungary replied with a set piece goal of their own, while Scott Parker was off the field and then they scored a powerful 35 yard free-kick to keep the game interesting. A good start, but Rob Green and Bobby Zamora will be probably be dropped from the squad while Scott Parker may drop to the bench after all 3 didn't really impress. Anyway on to the Euro 2012 qualifiers! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

o JaY Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 So the dreaded message, damn I should've kept a backup like I do with my long-term one. It was a very short game so it's a sad end. Looks like I'll be back to my 'o JaY's on tour'. Follow me there and check out my progress Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
