If Scolari wins it, he will be a Hero

If he comes second or worse, he will be fckd.

ALL OR NOTHING.

Interesting article. Not that I would have Carroll and Crouch in my squad.

Looks like Stones might get called up because of Jones and Caulker injury problems.

Mick Jagger at centre half and Keith Richards flying down the wing?

Nah - hes not.

Has the long term blind faith of the owners, unlike yours and 90% of the others with their rent-a-boss-for-the-moment mentality

Message understood SS.

A credit to the Arsenal owners.

No argument.

Would be a good shout but I feel Woy isn't that adventurous!

stones? thought these injuries might lead to more momentum on board the john terry bandwagon.

I think JT is resigned to not going.

BTW. I think I got me Caulker mixed up with me Walker.

Lineker rates Stones, but what does that count for?

Mick Jagger at centre half and Keith Richards flying down the wing?

Yep. Could do worse.

Meatloaf in goal could be an option.

If Carroll can perform Jumping Jack Flash against Citeh, might want to consider him?

Not sure if it should be Lambert or Carroll tbh.

Mick Jagger at centre half and Keith Richards flying down the wing?

Watts as the sweeper.

lambert by miles. better season, better injury record, better player really.

Ok with Lambert.

Charlie Watts on the Maracana Drums.

Suarez doing the fireworks.

Several papers are saying Stones of Everton should go (along with Gay Lineker)

I mean Gary is saying that too.

I'd only play Stones if he shaved his legs tbh.

Bit of lubrication as well and you can avoid injuries.

Sliding tackles just slide off. Sorted.

I'm waiting to see who Roy of the Rovers actually picks!

I just hope he takes the youngsters.

Sounds like he's hot for Oxtail Chambermaid.

Quite partial to a bit of Oxtail eh?

I hope he throws caution to the wind, but I have this feeling it's going to be the old guard.

I don't see too many old guard in your 23 ups. And tbh I don't see any other oldies that he could even consider taking.

I'm hopeful he'll get it right and take the correct 23.

I wouldn't put money on him getting the right starting 11 though. That will be the genius part.

Not in mine, but there's every possibility of him picking Lampard, Cole and Defoe not that we have great centre forward options.

He likes Milner and probably Cleverley (not old guard) who is not good enough.

May choose Carroll and play the long ball in the heat.

I hope you are right....that has got me foaming at the mouth....can't wait for it to start!

You could well be right ups. I hadn't even thought of disasters on that scale.

As a British citizen, you will of course be cheering us on.

Chelsea's Ashley Cole has retired from international football after being left out of England's World Cup squad.

Southampton left-back Luke Shaw, 18, will be included when England manager Roy Hodgson names his 23-man squad, plus seven standby players, on Monday.

"I got the call from Roy and agree the England team should be about the young players. I think it best I retire from the England team now," said Cole.

http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/27368711

Looks like Roy is going to do the smart thing and go young. I don't follow the England NT but I would expect most of their fans to be happy with the youth parade. Prepare for 2016, and the younger lads may even be more competitive in this WC than the old guard anyway.

Let us know hour Your 23 actually matched up to Roy of the Rovers squad when it's announced.

Liam Ridgewell anyone? Token WBA player

Goalkeepers: Joe Hart (Manchester City), Ben Foster (West Bromwich Albion), Fraser Forster (Celtic).

Defenders: Leighton Baines (Everton), Gary Cahill (Chelsea), Phil Jagielka (Everton), Glen Johnson (Liverpool), Phil Jones (Manchester United), Luke Shaw (Southampton), Chris Smalling (Manchester United).

Midfielders: Ross Barkley (Everton), Steven Gerrard (Liverpool), Jordan Henderson (Liverpool), Adam Lallana (Southampton), Frank Lampard (Chelsea), James Milner (Manchester City), Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (Arsenal), Raheem Sterling (Liverpool), Jack Wilshere (Arsenal).

Attackers: Rickie Lambert (Southampton), Wayne Rooney (Manchester United), Daniel Sturridge (Liverpool), Danny Welbeck (Manchester United).

Standby: John Ruddy (Norwich City), Jon Flanagan (Liverpool), John Stones (Everton), Michael Carrick (Manchester United), Tom Cleverley (Manchester United), Andy Carroll (West Ham United), Jermain Defoe (Toronto FC).

Looks like ups was very close.

I'm trying to do ' spot the difference.'

Looks Ok?
