Injury worries for McClaren

England
by Paul Fletcher (U1816326) 09 October 2007
comment on the article

Skipper John Terry has been ruled out of England's Euro 2008 qualifier against Estonia on Saturday.

Fellow defender Wes Brown has already withdrawn from the squad while Sol Campbell has been struggling with an Achilles problem.

Campbell, however, seems favourite to play alongside Rio Ferdinand, but do you think McClaren should pick Joleon Lescott or Micah Richards to partner the Man Utd defender?

Campbell definately deserves his chance because its so difficult for anyone else to get in the team ahead of Rio and JT. CAmbell's stil a top quality defender.

Just wondering if anyones read Graham polls book becasue he wasn't exactly complimentry about JT in it, saying he doesn't think he should be England captain. Does anyone agree because to me GP came across as a lying, attention-seeking ba5tard.

To inject some pace we need Bowyer, for some added stability we need Mark Noble, for guidance we need Scott Parker and for leadership we need Reo Coker.

And for some steel, we need Anton.

i take it your a hammers fan?

ps, there is more steel in a cristiano ronaldo than anton. he is a poor mans rio.

surely Richards or Lescott deserve to be in ahead of campbell. campbell has had his shot IMO, and both richards and lescott need experience at this level. no matter who you play there it wont matter anyway as its only v rubbish estonia

But why do you need to rush people like lescott into the national team? he's still young and thats what friendlies are for.
