AjcW Posted 15 May 2012 Posted 15 May 2012 So you win the league.... but dont make a 30 man squad..... right....
Libertine Posted 15 May 2012 Posted 15 May 2012 Understandable if Jones is going instead of 2 RBs as he can play numerous positions, but Richards should be the one RB! Sincerely, Worried of West Leicester
Kitchandro Posted 15 May 2012 Posted 15 May 2012 Can't believe Mills didn't get a call up! Fuming!! I wouldn't be surprised if he did reading some of this. He must have asked Harry Redknapp's advice before picking this squad. Or taken a bribe.
Tielemans63 Posted 15 May 2012 Author Posted 15 May 2012 Joe Cole and Bobby Zamora trending on twitter... Joe Cole! He plays about 10 mins a week for Lille at the moment. God, I hope all this speculation about crap players making the squad is exactly that - speculation.
Jaspa Posted 15 May 2012 Posted 15 May 2012 I'd take Nath Clyne then Vexed about Richards, would've been my first choice And a little less about Walker, but still
ScouseFox Posted 15 May 2012 Posted 15 May 2012 If Crouch really isn't going I give up. Joe Cole trending on Twitter did make me smile though, he's still decent.

Kyle Walker OUT, inj" via Henry Winter's Twitter. If that's true (and HW is well-respected) than the decision not to include Richards is crazy. Phil Jones is decent but he's been average for United recently and hasn't had a sustained run at RB or CB this season.
Walker Posted 15 May 2012 Posted 15 May 2012 I wouldn't be surprised if he did reading some of this. He must have asked Harry Redknapp's advice before picking this squad. Or taken a bribe. 'Arry would have put Joe Cole in hands down! ' Oh he's a triffic lad joey, i'd love him down ere!'
Tom17LCFC Posted 15 May 2012 Posted 15 May 2012 I wouldn't so much mind Ruddy being in the squad because he'd only be back-up, but Carroll and Zamora?! Is that really all we have? I'll forgive Roy if he can persuade Scholes to play though.
accessory Posted 15 May 2012 Posted 15 May 2012 Joe Cole! He plays about 10 mins a week for Lille at the moment. God, I hope all this speculation about crap players making the squad is exactly that - speculation. 10 minutes more than Micah/Milner/Adam Johnson are getting right now..
Soar Fox Posted 15 May 2012 Posted 15 May 2012 Richards can play RB and CB. Shocking decision not to take him if it's true.
Brown Fox Posted 16 May 2012 Posted 16 May 2012 If Richards doesn't go I'll be gutted. Should be first choice over Johnson everyday. Ruddy is also really shit, and I'd bet a big amount that he'd cock up catastrophically if he by some miracle got in the team. Also, Zamora/Carroll over Crouch?! Crouch's record for England is class and he's 10x better than both of those donkeys. And if the surprise inclusion is actually Barton I'll probably not be able to actually support us. Hopefully will be Scholes.
Kitchandro Posted 16 May 2012 Posted 16 May 2012 I'll be hugely shocked if the Barton thing wasn't rumour. It's perfect timing if you think about it...typical Twitter. Still, sounds a crappy squad.
Guest MattP Posted 16 May 2012 Posted 16 May 2012 Why are people getting so worked up on Richards? Looks totally out of his depth v tip class opposition and has lost his place to Zabaleta.
Jaspa Posted 16 May 2012 Posted 16 May 2012 Why are people getting so worked up on Richards? Looks totally out of his depth v tip class opposition and has lost his place to Zabaleta. Because you know you want a big black, rapid full back who can out-muscle and pace just about anybody He is absolute quality on his day ( 1-6 vs ManU ) and seems quite a good lad And yes, Johnson was shocking at the World Cup and hasn't done much for England ever

Richards has always fell short at the top level, hence why Zabaleta plays over him, have people forgot what Ivica Olic did to him in that famous Croatia 3-2 game? Was possibly the worst performance ever seen from an England full back. I'm not saying Johnson is great, he isnt but he is no worse than Micah, seriously, can you imagine what the Iniesta's, Riberys and Ozil's would do to Micah Richards?

Probably exactly the same thing they'll do to Johnson...
Guest MattP Posted 16 May 2012 Posted 16 May 2012 Probably exactly the same thing they'll do to Johnson... Exactly so what are we all moaning about? We all know Walker is the best and the rest are quite shite......

Croatia was 4 years ago On this seasons form Richards should be in over Johnson allday long
