Me too. Out of the 4 right-sided wingers we've named (I suspect Johnson is in Capello's mind for the left), both Walcott and Wright-Phillips offer poor end product 9 times out of 10. Lennon has been the form player despite his injury this season, and Milner would have been my first pick on last year's form, but he's spent most of this season in a central role.

I suspect you've not seen him play much this season, as Lennon has had. As evidenced by him being in the top assists this season despite missing 4 months out injured. His delivery really has improved IMO.

Spain squad announced: Casillas, Reina, Valdés, Albiol, Arbeloa, , Capdevila, Marchena, Piqué, Puyol, Sergio Ramos, Xabi Alonso, Busquets, Cesc, Iniesta, Javi Martínez, Silva, Xavi, Navas, Mata, Pedro, Llorente, Fernando Torres y Villa.

Some surprises in there, most notably Valdes and Pedro, obviously they are looking very strong but Iniesta, Fabregas and Torres all have had injury issues recently, and David Villa was looking knackered towards the end of the season - so there may be a couple of things to get at.

Can we have a ban on any and all adverts featuring football and footballers (esp the Pringoooooals advert)? Oh and the Carslberg advert that features the trampling on Sir Bobby Robson's grave.

Once that is in place bring it on.

I would agree, Carlsberg whipping up the nutters to drink more of their product and then go on the rampage when we go out on penalties again.

And Crouch has a creepy look about him on the Pringles ad.

Mind you i like the ITV world cup ad with the Jimi Hendrix song.
