Sky reporting Rio left out, Terry going to Euros. 23:10 - May 15 with 3737 views

FA hiding behind '...we can't do anything because of the pending court case.' So, in theory, Terry could lift the trophy and a week later be found guilty of raial abuse. If Terry plays I won't be watching or supporting England.

Well if anyone has seen a better central defensive display than Terry (spit) and Cahill against Barcelona then they should go instead. I can't think of any. And you know that hurts me to say but I'm an England fan in the summer. Normal hostilities resume in August.

maybe rio isn't up to a place in the starting eleven but is surely good enough as a squad member.sounds to me like the fa have made this call....looks like they've got a puppet called roy as our new national team manager.

Rio is a crock he can't do games every four days no way, like him or not Terry is a better choice as a footballing decision.

agreed but he's got to be worth a place on the bench..his omission is just too convenient for my liking

I do see your point and partly agree interesting though I guess somebody had to stay behind on this one.

If Terry's on the pitch at least the other players know where he is.

More scandalous is dropping Richards & Walker for Jones and including Aaron 'I can't cross a football' Lennon!

If Walker doesn't go, it will be becuase of his injury

Indeed. Walker being injured makes it even more ridiculous that Richards isnt going. You'd struggle to make a case for Phil Jones as Englands third best right back.

yup. agree with that.

Feel sick at the thought of seeing Terry possibly lead England out at the Euro's as well.

Will be interesting to see what strikers get picked. Rooney, Sturridge, Wellbeck not sure about the other two - assuming 5 are picked.

there was a debate on Talksport last night, they believe Hodgson will pick players on experience rather than form. As a result they think Zamora has a chance.

Either way, a squad with Gerrard, Lampard and Terry is going to be painful to watch.

Bollox.

Their best defender was the fking woodwork.

Stefan Moore, Stefan Moore running down the wing. Stefan Moore, Stefan Moore running down the wing. He runs like a cheetah, his crosses couldn't be sweeter. Stefan Moore. Stefan Moore. Stefan Moore.

Tried and failed how many times now?

It really is a joke to expect these players, who were too old and too slow in 2010, to be any younger and any quicker in 2012. Anyone who watches football will tell you Terry simply cannot deal with attackers with pace and good movement, and that's what the better teams have. He's going to get picked apart.

And that's not even taking into account the upcoming trial. Are the FA honesty going to complain to UEFA if/when the Ukrainian fans boo England's black players? Whilst including a player awaiting trial for racial abuse?

As for Andy Carroll, well, words fail me.

"Anyone who watches football will tell you Terry simply cannot deal with attackers with pace and good movement, and that's what the better teams have. He's going to get picked apart."

Exactly. Irrespective of the fact that he's a racist and Chelsea captain, and irrespective even of whether or not he's the best in England, Terry is not a world class defender in the game as it is now played at international level. By that I don't mean he's crap - I'm sure he will be OK against the middling teams - but he's not good enough if we want to compete with Spain , Germany, Italy, the Dutch or France.

The fact that there are people in the English game who still rate him shows how far we have to go. But personally I think if any English manager is up to addressing this, it might just be Hodgson

well if these old failures are going to the Euros I hope we are out within a week.

and if you've seen a worse one than Terry v Liverpool, then please tell me about it. Terry didn't play most of the game in Barca where all the real work was done anyway.

plus - his ability is not the question, here.

Bare bones.

I was really hoping that we might have a complete refresh of the squad (like we have under Lancaster in the rugby) and i could get behind the team again.

Sadly if the media are correct, it looks like Hodgson will be picking all the old proven failures again - in which case i will be watching the Euros as a neutral.

Can't get interested in a team including:

Terry - old, slow, rascist.
Gerrard - no discipline and no coincidence that Liverpool's 4-1 win over Chelsea was when he was on the bench.
Lampard - no longer effective, actively stopped trying to get AVB sacked.
Rooney - shouldn't even be going and should be on a 3 match ban.
Young - diving cheat, so dumb he doesn't even realise how hated he is.

Etc etc

mediocre from front to back :-(

I like Leighton Baines and Alex Oxlade Chamberlain and fat Wayne. That's about it. Kyle Walker if he was fit.

"plus - his ability is not the question, here."

True, but it ought to be somewhere.

25 years ago Paul Parker and Des Walker showed the way. Instead we have Donkey Adams mk II. Are England the only team that goes backward technically?

[Apart from Scotland, obviously]
