Players are definetly selected on form rather than team now, Rooney apart. In 2002 the team had Vassell, Hargreaves and Mills in it also think Sinclair played a good part of that world cup as well. 2-3 man u players in the team
If players are definitely selected on form, why were Wilshere and Sturridge both in the squad?
Crimson Clive said last night that the big baby had played more for England than he did for l'Arse last season. It's idiotic taking a player with so little game time under his belt and with Rashford in the squad, we already had four forwards, if you include shrek, so why take a half-fit greedy bastard, especially if you're going to play him as a winger. Hodgson would have been as well taking Townsend instead and Drinkwater rather than Wilshere.
Once again, it's selecting players on whom they play for - Sturridge and Wilshere - regardless of whether they are fit or not, rather than others, who are fit, raring to go and offer something different, especially in the case of Townsend instead of Sturridge.
