If i was Capello well no I wouldn't have him in the squad. How many strikers will England take? Four? Five? I would take Rooney, Defoe, Cole, Crouch and Bent. Like has been said already, Rooney and Owen is not a great partnership, I don't know why people still say it is. It's likke one of those partnerships that can look promising on paper but it's been tried many times and it didn't work out. Rooney + Heskey or even Owen + Heskey would be a uch better option. I think Rooney and Cole are the two that have to go, I would take Crouch over Heskey because well Cole offers most of what Emile offers plus he's got a bit more about him and can actually score goals, so Crouch like him or not, can offer ssomething if England are up against it. That leaves 2 places up for grabs and for me it's between Defoe, Bent and Owen and the first two are in great for this season and are much quicker. Owen has a lot of work to do if he's to break into the squad. |

Yes, but to say he's never scored against is decent side is fucking stupid. How many games has he played for England? About 4 or 5, most of them coming in pointless friendlies and late sub appearances. |

and he still fails to impress or cement a place. i would rather have owen on the pitch during the finals looking for a goal than bent to be honest. |

Ffs Cockney pull it together, my point was Bent has no experience; I was backing that up by saying he's never scored against a decent side, it doesn't take much brainpower, considering we're discussing England, to think that I might be referring to his England performances and not those at club level. |

He should be in the squad, along with Sturridge, Crouch and Defoe. Rooney and Bent still left with a lot to prove this season. |

yes, should take 5 strikers, rooney, crouch, owen, defoe and either bent/heskey/cole even if he dont play, he offers world cup experience that a lot of the other lads aint got, and maybe just maybe could make a difference for 20 minutes hes worth taking just to have the option |
