"Your starting 11 for England 2004 ???"

Im not askin what sven will play but from the squad named who would you like to see in the starting 11 ????

Mine would have to be ...

Owen -- Rooney
Gerrard -- Scholes -- Lampard -- Beckham
A.Cole -- Campbell -- Terry -- G.Neville
James

Scholes would probably be a little bit more forward.

I'd try that in a friendly match first.

Gk. James
LB. Cole/Bridge ( cole due to experience but there is no real dif)
CB. Campbell
CB. Terry
RB. Neville

LM. Joe Cole (nobody can play there, everyones crap at it so we might as well have a trick pony who might do something for us, i might be more inclined to play bridge in this situation just as JC might leave cole a bit exposed if they go on hero runs together)(i don't want a rubbish diamond Its a talent waste and limits us so much, and means butt plays)

CM. Gerrard (no more diamond rubbish)

CM. Lampard (SG and FL are two best form midfielders in the country no arguments)

RM. Beckham

Forward. Rooney or scholes (don't care either will do, nice to use scholes as he'd probably score a few there too)

Forward. Owen

1. P.Robinson (Gk)

2. A.cole (lb)
3. Terry (lcb)
4. campbell (rcb)
5. neville (Rb)

6. Gerrard (dm)
7. lampard (lcm)
8. Beckham (rcm)
9. scholes (Cam)

10. Rooney (cf)
11. Owen (St)
