So EURO 2012 is approaching.... Lets keep this thread for all the analysis of our matches.... EURO preparation matches.... Views on z squad.... Etc...

England prov. Squad for Euro 2012:
Goalkeepers: Joe Hart, Rob Green, John Ruddy

Defenders: Glen Johnson, Phil Jones, John Terry, Joleon Lescott, Gary Cahill, Ashley Cole, Leighton Baines

Midfielders: Theo Walcott, Stewart Downing, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Steven Gerrard, Gareth Barry, Frank Lampard, Scott Parker, Ashley Young, James Milner

Forwards: Wayne Rooney, Danny Welbeck, Andy Carroll, Jermain Defoe

Standby players: Jack Butland, Phil Jagielka, Jordan Henderson, Adam Johnson, Daniel Sturridge

I'm actually relying on Carroll to be a surprise package. We can't always play that sweet passing football the same way Barca/Arsenal like to. The English team just isn't technical enough, and with Rooney out for 2 games, so the Stoke approach is our best option.

Defensively we're not too bad and we'll be relying on the quick counter attack with pacey wingers to cross into the box where the Geordie Pony will hopefully nod them in

Why M. Kelly?

Is lennon ijured or what?
Why martin kelly?
A loser team....
Why not richard or ferdinand?
Liverpool=england?

Good as Defoe will be available for France match
