    would anyone have wanted either of these 2 in the england squad, lambert would have been a mojor shock but cole would have been decent, always played well for england, can play all across the midfield and behind the front man and has been playing well in france this season?

    Neither thanks.
    Personally i think Roy's done right to take Oxlade-Chamberlain (over Cole) who has pace and strength and can scare full backs by being direct.
    Also would you have take Lambert ahead of Crouch? Think Crouch can consider himself unfortunate.

    I'd have taken Cole over Downing

    But then again, I'd have taken Matt Done over Downing. Or even Martin Devaney, in fact I think i've been unlucky not to get picked ahead of Downing. Can't cross, can't shoot, average at running at players, absolutely woeful.

    He is great if you want someone to put it over the bar though - he is the only baffling selection to me

    You aren't baffled that Glen Johnson is included???
    I think it's a poor squad, but then again, there ain't much to choose from thanks to the Greed League and it's influx of foreign mercenaries.
    I think Grant Holt has been robbed though - way better than Carroll or Welbeck

    Wouldn't have picked Lambert. Thirty years old, uncapped and never played in the Premiership as far as I'm aware.

    I'd have taken Kevin Davies over Carroll.
