I'm right there with you with RvP, maybe more so. I honestly hope we don't play too many big names at all. I wanna see what a few young Eredivisie players can do, like Pieters and de Jong.
I really want Pieters to gain some confidence and fill in the hole left when van Bronckhorst retired. |
RVP won't play I'm sure due to the ankle injury he picked up yesterday.
Wilshere's is more precautionary.. but RvP I'm worried about how fast he recovers so he can be ready for the Newcastle game. _________________

Has anyone else noticed how awful that England squad is? I mean, I know our media overrate us at the best of times, but that is literally awful  _________________ 20 TIMES, 20 TIMES MAN UNITTTTTEEDDD

England's media needs to really lower the expectations on the England national team. They can never live up to those expectations with the quality of players they have. _________________

Tom Cleverley gets a call-up on the back of his stellar performance in the Community Shield. Hope to see him get a run out at some point _________________

I hope he starts in all honesty. Get rid of the old guffs and bring some young blood in. _________________

Pretty funny how Cleverley wasn't even a consistent starter for England U21's in the Euro Championships
I don't think he has the pace to play out wide at the top level, so I hope he develops as a CM.
In the near future England's starting lineup could include Phil Jones, Chris Smalling, Tom Cleverley, Ashley Young, Danny Welbeck and Wayne Rooney.

HALT!!!!!!
No England future line-up is correct unless Jordan Henderson is starting.
I do have to say that United is developing/signing some nice young talent for the future. _________________

Yeh you have to remember that whilst I am definitely loving United having good English talent, it hasn't come cheap.
Rooney - £30 million
Young - £20 million
Smalling - £12 million
Jones - £15 million
The good ole English premium ... But that British resolve shows in United's attitude, and I think the lack of it shows in Arsenal's attitude for example. _________________ 20 TIMES, 20 TIMES MAN UNITTTTTEEDDD

My starting lineup for the Holland game:
GK Joe Hart
RB Kyle Walker
LB Leighton Baines
CB Gary Cahill
CB John Terry
RW Adam Johnson
LW Ashley Young
CM Tom Cleverly
CM Scott Parker
CM James Milner
CF Andy Carroll
See what they can do. _________________

On the flip side, my preferred Nederland XI given who's healthy:
GK: Steklenberg
RB: van der Wiel
LB: Erik Pieters
CB: John Heitinga
CB: Joris Mathijsen
CDM: Nigel De Jong
CDM: Mark van Bommel
LW: Eljero Elia
CM: Wesley Sneijder
RW: Dirk Kuyt
ST: Klaas-Jan Huntelaar
Will be a lot of subs on both sides either way I'm sure. _________________
