Costa Rica v England

[Spaghetti Legs]

Anyone going to bother?

Has to be the Italy/Uruguay match doesn't it?


England team.

Foster
Jones
Cahill
Smalling
Shaw
Lampard
Milner
Wilshere
Barkley
Lallana
Sturridge

Presume Lambert and Forster will get at least half and hour and Costa Rica will be resting some players.

Glad to see Woy is going to play Wawwana from the start.

Would be an exciting forward line if we swapped Sterling for Milner.

Meh backline though I'm interested in seeing how Shaw works out and pleased he gets to start and TBH that back four couldn't be any worse than what's gone before.

Midfield looks like it'll get hammered and I'd like to know how they plan to keep possession since Lampard will be somewhere up front and Wilshere off on his 'going nowhere' runs before being dispossessed or taking someone out !

If they can keep the scores level until making their subs then England 2-1, if not they'll lose.

Italy 1 Uruguay 2 in the other match, Suarez to score #3.

I've changed plans and I'm now playing golf. Can't be arsed with this game. No Raheem is a joke

I can't decide if I want this new line up to win so Roy looks stupid or get absolutely battered so Roy looks stupid.

Costa Rica manager, Jorge Luis on England: "We look forward to testing our fringe players against the weakest side in the group."
